In the middle of the Tularosa Basin in Southern New Mexico, the village of Tularosa stands out as a small green oasis.

The Tularosa Creek is diverted by a system of acequias and other low tech throughout the historic 49 blocks.

The village Water Commission Mayordomo calls the shots.

"...build them from the #Moors.

The Moors started building #acequias over 10,000 years ago to grow crops in the #MiddleEast and #NorthAfrica".

#Moors are #Berbers and other people from the ancient #Roman province of #Mauretania, in what is now North-Western Africa, who supported the #Arab in the conquest of the #Iberian peninsula in the 7th-10th century
