The Great Kiva is like many other great kivas in Southwestern Pueblo sites in that it is much larger than the round dwellings and smaller kivas; it also contains interior features that are suggestive of the activities that took place within it. Though probably used by the men for ritualistic purposes like other great kivas, it might have also been used for secular activities. Its size suggests builders designed the kiva large enough to hold women and children for community meetings, work, and play as well as ceremonies. |
