New Mexico–Taos Indian Pueblo 3
A closer look at one of the adobe buildings. In earlier times, pueblo adobes did not have doors; access to the building was through the roof. Ladders could be pulled up for safety. Ladders are still common, but most adobes have doors and windows, and most are painted blue. I was told that blue wards off malignant spirits.
