The Anasazi are well-known first for their architecture, which consisted of complex pueblo villages with buildings arranged around central plazas, and also the more famous structures, including entire villages, that some Anasazi peoples built into cliff walls. They were also skilled astronomers, constructing observatories atop cliffs and exhibiting a great deal of astronomical knowledge. The same engineering skills were used to construct canals, dams, and ditches used to irrigate their fields, which at the height of Anasazi civilization were quite productive considering the relatively dry conditions in which most Anasazi lived.
