Tonque Pueblo : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tonque Pueblo Tonque (TONG-kee) is a large abandoned Pre-Columbian pueblo in Sandoval County, New Mexico, United States, about 7 miles / 12 km southeast of San Felipe Pueblo. It was a site of significant ceramic industry, and may have provided up to one-third of the glaze decorated pottery used in contemporary pueblos in the middle Rio Grande valley. == Pueblo complex ==
Tonque pueblo (LA240), now a severely eroded ruin, was constructed of adobe and may never have exceeded a single storey. It comprised between 1500 and 2000 rooms arranged in an E, with three parallel arms running approximately east-west, of about 120 to 280 metres length and of 4 to 10 rooms width, and with a continuous block of rooms, now mostly destroyed, along the west side.〔Brasswell, A.; ''Digs,'' University of New Mexico Anthropology Newsletter, Spring 2008〕 The pueblo is sited on the north edge of Tonque arroyo, a normally dry tributary to the Rio Grande, while a spring occurs on the south side. There is evidence that the arroyo floor downstream (west) of the pueblo was cultivated, probably with maize and beans, which may have been largely dependent on seasonal flooding. Numerous petroglyphs can be found in the vicinity of Tonque.
