Description: So called Farview reservoir, formerly called Mummy Lake at Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado USA. The structure was thought to be a reservoir to collect runoff for irrigation and drinking water. Recent research disputes this interpretation and identifies the structure as outdoor ceremonial space. This image shows the assumed water intake that is seen as a Chacoan procession road under the new interpretation.
