Crow Canyon Archaeological District is a historic site in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, about 30 miles southeast of the city of Farmington. Located in Dinétah, the traditional homeland of the Navajo people, the site contains a variety of Navajo ruins and rock art from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. There are several large petroglyph panels which include both Navajo and Pueblo images, as well as a handful of Navajo defensive structures known as pueblitos which were built in the 18th century during a period of conflict with the Utes. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
