==History== Moqui Cave was once used by [[Anasazi]] people as a shelter, according to archaeological digs in the area. It was rediscovered by white settlers in the 19th century, and served as a [[speakeasy]] in the 1920s during [[Prohibition_in_the_United_States|Prohibition]]. Since 1951 it has belonged to the Chamberlain family, who operate the cave as a tourist attraction. It currently contains a substantial rock collection, including many ultraviolet-fluorescent minerals.
