"I was out there one summer when I was a student. That would have been around the mid-60s, maybe 1965 or 66. There was a professor here named Richard Donnelly, who owned some land not far from the Cleft. Donnelly was dying of cancer, and too weak to dig anymore, so I was out there digging for him. We did most of our digs at the edge of his property, but we then went to the Cleft. No one was living there, no one was even interested in it. The local folks stayed away because they thought the place was evil."

"I have heard that," you reply. "So did you find anything?"

"Well, that was the point," Dr. James says, " there was nothing there to find. In mean, at the Cleft. Donnelly was working on a theory about the place and why no one had ever explored it. Comparing the dig at the Cleft with the ones at La Casa he had found missing habitation levels. Anyway, long story short, Donnelly died and after I got my degree I took a teaching job at the University of Maryland. It has taken a few decades but now that I am back in New Mexico I thought I would complete Donnelly's research."

Ask the professor another question.

Say Goodbye and drive away.
