I've been where this depicts, or at least I'm assuming it's depicting a dwelling below the sun temple of Mesa Verde. Those circular things are Kivas, used for religious ceremonies and (iirc) sometimes gathering children to pass on oral history/knowledge. I spent the night up top, beautiful skies at dark.
