General

Aerial photographs of Chaco Canyon, including sites of Chetro Ketl and Pueblo Bonito. Originally belonged to Paul Reiter and found in UNM Department of Anthropology materials. Each image has 2 prints, one a reverse image of the other. According to Carla Van West, photographs may have been taken before 1929 because of the lack of certain structures such as hogans and the superintendent's building. According to Dr. Joan Mathien, photographs were possibly taken by Carlos Vierra. Transferred from Vivian Archive in 2011.
