FEWKES] NAVAHO NATIONAL MONUMENT, ARIZONA 21 
FOREST-GLEN HOUSE 
The fine growth of-trees at the base of a large cliff-house about 2 
miles beyond Cradle House has suggested the name Forest-glen 
House. Some of the walls are in the form of concentric semicircles 
with the conspicuous representation of a head attached to one side. 
Many rocks have fallen on this ruin from the cave roof, especially 
at one end, but the rooms at the western end are still well preserved. 
PINE-TREE HovussE 
About 8 miles up East canyon there is a large, almost inaccessible, 
ruin, which lies a short distance from the main canyon. A striking 
feature of this ruin is its division into three parts, of which the central 
section is somewhat lower than the one on each side. A large pine 
on the edge of the cliff above has suggested the name Pine-tree House. 
Deep below this ruin is a large basin, in which grow many trees and 
bushes; among these are a good spring and a small rivulet. This 
ruin has two very large circular kivas, without pedestals, 20 to 30 
feet in diameter. A deep banquette is present on one side. This ruin 
exhibits no evidence of having been dug. 
TRICKLING-SPRING HoUsE 
After descending to Laguna creek from Marsh pass, crossing the 
stream, and following the bank about 2 miles, one comes to a ridge of 
copper-bearing rocks, beyond which the road crosses a deep ravine. 
On following the right bank this ravine is found to extend into 
the cliffs as a canyon. A few miles after entering the canyon a 
stream is encountered emerging from a spring and _ trickling 
over a cliff. High above this cliff, in a canyon 60 or 80 feet 
in size, the entrance to which is surrounded and more or less con- 
cealed by stately pines, spruces, and cedars, stands a_ cliff- 
ruin, possibly never before visited by white men, for which the 
name Trickling-spring House is suggested. Although this ruin is 
small, it is in several respects unique. The main architectural 
feature is a diminutive court or plaza, into which open a number 
of small rooms, having well-plastered walls and low entrances. 
In this, as in most of the other ruins in the Navaho National 
Monument, some of the house-walls are constructed of stone; but 
many are made of clay, plastered on sticks or wickerwork supported 
by upright logs. The masonry when present is poor as a rule, the 
component stones rarely being dressed into shape, but the surface 
plastering, especially on the kiva walls, is good. Many walls stand on 
_ rocks that have evidently fallen from the roof of-the cave, A metate
