I listened to a presentation last year from UNM that they found similar colors/semiprecious gemstones in walls of Kivas in Chaco. black red blue and clear translucent colors.

Regarding that whole community moving idea - other groups moved often when necessary. Game and other resources running out in an area would cause plains peoples to move. Resources, ground productivity issues for crop production, water sources drying up, I want to live in a better neighborhood with a better view, who knows.
