I get asked this question fairly often. Can you guess what the question is?
Letter A is for Aztec, Ancestral Pueblo and Anasazi.The name Aztec Ruins is a misnomer. First, the Aztecs never lived here - the Aztec Empire existed in Central Mexico between 1325 - 1521 CE, several centuries after the structures here were built. Second, the descendants of the people who built the great houses don't consider them to be ruins; rather they are places inhabited by their ancestors.
