Travels with the Cornmaidens

For nearly 5,000 years, people have lived in these canyons - longer than  anyone has lived uninterrupted anywhere on the Colorado Plateau.  In  the place called Tseyi, their homes and images tell us their stories.  Today, Navajo families make their homes, raise livestock, and farm the  lands in these canyons.

Coronado State Monument includes the partially  reconstructed ruins of the ancient Pueblo of Kuaua. The pueblo of Kuaua  was occupied from 1300 AD and abandoned near the end of the 16th  Century. Today you can visit this historical site and learn about the  history of the Kuaua pueblo people. 

Visiting Acoma Sky City with Corn Maiden Tours offered new ways to enjoy the pueblo, vistas, and legends. They engage their own Acoma Pueblo guide and storyteller who is separate from the shuttle groups. Their expert photographers show where to focus for memorable images. And the delicious picnic they provide between Acoma and Enchanted Mesa holds the power of both places among serene woods.    --- Maya Sutton, Ph.D., Sutton Seminars
