Abstract
- The article reports that the cultural celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Mesa Verde National Park in Colorado will take place in 2006. More than 100 years ago, the pottery and other works left behind by the people who lived in the cliff dwellings were disappearing at an alarming rate. Virginia McClurg, a young newspaper reporter, devoted much of her passion, time and energy to persuade the public and the decision makers to protect these dwellings. During the celebration, the actions of the dedicated group for its preservation as well as the words of Margaret Mead, a writer, will be reflected.
