Cliff Palace is the largest cliff dwelling in North America. Cliff Palace was constructed between about 1190 and 1260 CE, although the major portion of the building was done within a 20-year time span. Known as Anasazi, the ancestors of the Pueblo peoples of the Southwest, who constructed this cliff dwelling and the others like it at Mesa Verde were driven to these defensible positions by "increasing competition amidst changing climatic conditions". Cliff Palace was abandoned by 1300, though debate is ongoing as to the cause. Some contend that a series of megadroughts interrupting food production systems was the main cause.
