Mortar Handprint  

Did You Know?
What today we call the Gila Cliff Dwellings were built in the 13th century by the Mogollon people. They formed the walls using chunks of Gila Conglomerate found within the caves. Mortar was required to keep the walls together. In some places you can still see the handprints of the builders.
