'These impressive structures have amazed since the first colonists came to what is now Arizona. Located in Cape Verde, it was created by the Sinagua people sometime around 1100 AD.
The name is actually a mistake as those first explorers assumed it had to be tied into the Aztec culture when it predates that.
The Hopi and Yavapai tribes both pay pilgrimage there to honor their ancestors.

Even modern engineers are impressed by the skill. While decades of looters have sadly robbed it of many treasures, the sight alone makes this the only “castle” in the U.S. worth checking out.'
