What reading level is Explorations in Southwestern Utah in 1908 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The greater number of the ceremo- nial rooms of this ruin, and, so far as we could determine, of all the sites in the Montezuma drainage, are structurally quite independent of the buildings to which they belong. They are not enclosed in a square or rectangular walled-up space, as was found by Mr. Morley to be the case on the McElmo, 1 nor are they set among the rooms as they are in the cliff-dwellings of the Mesa Verde. 2 This fact is quite in accord with the straggling and loose-knit plan of t...he Alkali Ridge ruin.
As is the rule in the San Juan, the kivas are subterranean. They are round, and, like those of the neighboring regions, have a plain lower wall some 3^ feet high, surmounted by six pilas- ters which divide the space above the lower wall into six niches (Fig. 5). These pilasters also served to carry the entire weight of the roof. 3 They are usually about 2| feet high, thus making the ceiling of the chamber approximately 6 feet above the floor. The outside of the roofs of these subterranean rooms apparently formed a kind of plaza, which was on about the same level as the floors of the living-rooms.
