In 1897, Frederick Webb Hodge proved them wrong by finding signs of habitation atop the plateau. Today called "Enchanted Mesa," it presents one of the better examples of a lost world to be found in New Mexico. But there are so many more. Northwestern New Mexico hosts the ancient ruins of Chaco Canyon, the stone towers of Gallinas, and a spectral white pueblo hidden amongst the lava-scarred malpais, while northeastern New Mexico houses a portal to the underworld at Urraca Mesa.
