'Antiquities of the Mesa Verde National Park: Cliff Palace' is a historical account by Jesse Walter Fewkes detailing his excavation and repair work on the Mesa Verde ruins. Under his sole charge, Fewkes was able to repair Cliff Palace completely and leave it in a condition where tourists and students could learn more about cliff-dwellings. This book presents a detailed account of Cliff Palace, the largest, most picturesque, and most typical cliff-dwelling in the Southwest. Fewkes also includes a description of the few minor antiquities found during the excavation, now forming the nucleus of a collection from Cliff Palace in the United States National Museum.
