New Fire House
New Fire House Located in Fewkes Canyon, New Fire House is comprised of approximately 20 rooms and 3 kivas, constructed on two separate ledges. The upper level was accessed by ladder and a connecting hand-and-toe hold trial.

Paintings found here are similar to ones found in some Hopi kivas relating to the “New Fire” ceremonials. This is one example of the many associations archeologists draw from present-day Indians of the Southwest in learning about the Ancestral Puebloans.
