HOVENWEEP CASTLE

This ruin (pls. 14, _b_, _c_; 18, _b_), like the preceding, has

circular kivas compactly embedded in rectangular rooms arranged

about them, indicating the pure type of pueblos. The massive walled

semicircular towers and great houses are combined with square rooms and

kivas, indicating that it is distinguished by two sections, an eastern

and a western, which, united, impart to the whole the shape of a letter

L (fig. 8).
