People of the Moon by W Michael Gear
They were called the Chaco Anasazi. They built thirty-foot-wide roads that crossed miles of mountains and mesas and constructed five-story buildings. Their priests and warriors presided over conquered populations via an extensive system of signal towers that could send messages across the vast distances day or night. Warriors could be dispersed to quell any rebellion within hours of the start of an uprising. The moon had reached its maximum three times since the Chacoans conquered the First Moon People. The Chaco matrons had built their Great House high atop First Moon Mountain and their red-shirted warriors stalked arrogantly through the villages. But the gods can only stand so much human arrogance.
