The Ancestral Pueblo
culture of America and the Castro Celtic culture of Spain and Ireland built the
same types of masonry fortified villages.
Ancestral Pueblo Cultures is also called Anasazi
Ancestral Pueblo cultures flourished
in the region currently known as the Four
Corners. The territory was covered by juniper forests which the ancient peoples learned to exploit
for their own needs, since foraging among the other vegetation only sufficed
for half of the year, only to fail from November to April. The Ancestral Pueblo
society is one of the most complex to be found in Oasis America, and they are
assumed to be the ancestors of the modern Pueblo
people. The term "Anasazi" is also used to describe these
cultures. It is a Navajo term
meaning "enemy ancestors".
The Ancestral Pueblo culture built huge complexes to live in
called ‘great houses’.
Castro Celtic Culture
A Castro is a fortified settlement, usually pre-Roman,
some from late Bronze Age and Iron Age, the oldest research
associated with the Celtic culture. The word Castro comes
from the Latin castrum, which means "hill fort".
