This en- closure is said to have been the church-yard.^ Beyond it the mesil/a and its ruined structures appear in full view; and from the church to the northern end, which is also its highest point, it has exactly the form of an elongated pear or parsnip. Hence the name given to it by Spanish authors of the eighteenth century, "el Navon de los Pecos." ^ This fruit- like shape is not limited to the outline : it also extends to the profile. Starting from the church, there is a curved neck, convex... to the east, and retreating in a semicircle from the stream on the west. At the end of this neck, about 200 m. — 660 ft. — north of the church, there is a slight depression, terminating in a dry stream-bed emptying into the bottom of the Arroyo de Pecos south-westward ; and beyond this de- pression the rocks bulge up to an oblong mound, nearly 280 m.— 920 ft. — long from north to south, and at its greatest width 160 m. — 520 ft. — from east to west. At the northern termination of this mound the mesilla curves to the north-east, and finally terminates in a long ledge of tumbled rocks, high and abrupt, which gradually merges into the ridges of sandy soil towards the little town of Pecos.^ PI.
