Stabilization of Lowry Ruins
A record of past and recent stabilization activities at Lowry Ruins is presented. Although initial excavation was done in the 1930's, no formal ruin stabilization was accomplished until 1966-67. In 1974-75 extensive maintenance stabilization was done, and the deeply buried, painted kiva (Kiva B) was reexcavated, stabilized and roofed for public access. Detailed records of activities in 1974-75 are presented and related to earlier work at Lowry Ruins. Recently available tree-ring dates verify earliest building activity began in A.D. 1090 for a period of 30 years.
