Teec Nos Pos, New Mexico

About this city

Teec Nos Pos is a small, culturally profound Navajo trading settlement positioned flatly in the high desert plateau of the extreme Four Corners region, where New Mexico tightly meets Arizona, Utah, and Colorado. Historically established in the early 20th century as a rugged frontier outpost, the community achieved immortalized global status in fine arts for its unique style of Navajo weaving. Teec Nos Pos textiles are globally celebrated for their intricate, highly detailed geometric borders and vibrant color schemes, seamlessly merging ancient tribal heritage with contemporary design preservation.
