The soft volcanic tuff was enlarged in prehistoric times to form a living space.The guestroom was created when the cave entrance was walled in with blocks of the same volcanic rock. The room once had two large holes in the roof for the smoke from an open fire pit. Judging from the thickness of the black soot on the ceiling, the cave had been used as a primitive home for a very long time.When the house was built on top of the cave, the two holes were plugged with giant rocks. From the vantage point of my bed, looking up into the domed ceiling, the two rocks looked like eyeballs, slightly skewed in blackened eye sock stanley quencher et holes. Water dripp kubki stanley ing down over the centuries had washed away some of the soot and re-deposited it in a curve that formed a large hooked nose.Parts of the walls were scraped with tools to give a uniform texture.

The Jemez Volcano last erupted a little over one million years ago and left thick layers of tuff over a huge area.
