Acequias

Uniquely preserved in this community of historic wonders, at least 10 significant acequias _ah-say-kyas_ can be found in Las Vegas. Acequias, man-made channels that direct water to farmland, were early irrigation canals that helped inland farmers make the most of rain and snowfall.

You will locate other web pages at NMohwy.com that are very much like Acequias at History.
