A Walk Around The Pueblo de Taos, New Mexico

Taos Pueblo (or Pueblo de Taos) is an ancient pueblo belonging to a Taos-speaking Native American tribe of Puebloan people. It lies about 1 mile north of the modern city of Taos, New Mexico. The pueblos are considered to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States. This has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Taos Pueblo is a member of the Eight Northern Pueblos, whose people speak two variants of the Tanoan language. The Taos community is known for being one of the most private, secretive, and conservative pueblos. Natives will almost never speak of their religious customs to outsiders, and because their language has never been written down, much of the culture remains unknown to the rest of the world. A reservation of 95,000 acres (38,000 ha) is attached to the pueblo, and about 4,500 people live in this area.

Im staying at taos forwork. Working at the indian medical center. But taos pueblo is currently closed really want to go :(

[@redbarron8963]

Live in Taos for a while.I believe the school was Talpa Elementary where I meet some of the local native kids. Very mystical place, even as a child I could feel the strong energy of its surroundings. Seen things in those mountains no 8yr old should encounter.

[@placeholder_name321]

it sounds like a very unique place to live. I have so much respect for the Natives for their belieg systems and of course what they've gone through in histroy.

[@Susanc06]

Yes I have been to this Pueblo, really beautiful 🥰

[@krossnkuss2875]

The funny thing is, none of these houses are built “up to code” but these are the oldest continuously inhabited buildings in North America.

[@LucidDreamer54321]

Building codes were implemented to help construction companies and labor union maximize profits and also to give local governments more control over the population.

[@krossnkuss2875]

@@mariellegomez5089 - by “we,” I’m assuming you’re Native? Tell me about these houses, I’m interested in alternative constructions.

[@DD-re5ql]

There are barely any house building codes in nm anyways

I was on vacation for several weeks out West (from home in IL), and my intention was to stop here and see it for myself. However, when I arrived in town last week, I was reminded that our Native population on the reservations is being especially hard bit by COVID19, so it's "closed up tighter than a drum", i.e., totally shut down. So, thank you so much for having posted this. It's definitely the next best thing to being there.

[@MichaelJirochVisualArtist]

Jim Green ...thank you for your posting.

I was out that way 3 weeks ago. I live near Rockford and Janesville.. I love to travel and explore places like this. Hope to see you on the road someday . I'm starting a youtube channel of travels.. you should come along..

[@rhondaschroeder1230]

How were you able to video tape this? When we were there no pictures were allowed.

[@MichaelJirochVisualArtist]

Rhonda Schroeder ...maybe the rules changed when you were there. I’ve no idea. I was allowed free reign with my camera and no one said a thing.

[@rhondaschroeder1230]

Michael Jiroch I am so glad you filmed it.....many wonderful memories came back to my mind.
