The Kivas are an underground chamber in the pueblo home where they talk, pray, and have religious ceremonies. They used the kivas for 100s of years. The center of the floor had a fire pit.
You had to climb down a ladder to get to the south end where a a bench was placed for spectators. At the north end was a small hole in the floor as a reminder of sipapu [a mound (4th World entrance) at the foot of the Grand Canyon].
