Description: The land use history of the Valles Caldera National Preserve (VCNP) extends back in time thousands of years. Given the great length of time involved and the many culturally diverse communities--Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo-American--that have interacted with this place, it is not surprising that this history evidences tremendous technological and organizational variability in how people have used and constructed affiliations with the VCNP. Nonetheless, throughout this long history, the VCNP was, and continues to be, peripheral to major centers of residential settlement and areas of intensive economic land use.
