Anasazi Settlements
What the Show Claims
- ›The unexplained disappearance of the Anasazi civilization is cited as evidence of mysterious vanishings. Ancient Astronaut theorists suggest these cultural disappearances cannot be completely explained by conventional scholars and may indicate extraterrestrial intervention.
What Archaeology Says
The Ancestral Puebloans (formerly called Anasazi) did not vanish but migrated and evolved into modern Pueblo peoples. Archaeological and anthropological evidence explains the settlement pattern changes through environmental, social, and cultural factors.
