You're right! I knew that wall looked familiar. When you think about how they constructed their buildings right on the ground with no foundation and using nothing but stones, mud, and timbers it's incredible they are still standing. Some of the walls at Chaco Canyon are 5 stories high and made out of individual stones no larger than a deck of cards or a slice of bread.
