Summary

Presents records of stabilization activities at Lowry Ruin. Although initial excavation was done in the 1930s, no formal ruin stabilization was accomplished until 1966-67. In 1974-75 extensive maintenance stabilization was done, and the deeply buried, painted kiva (Kiva B) was reexcavated, stabilized, and roofed for public access. Available tree-ring dates verify the earliest building activity began in A.D. 1090 for a period of 30 years. A relationship of Lowry Ruin to the northern expansion of Chaco influence in the late 1000's is suggested.
