Each year thousands of people come to the Salt River Valley, some to visit and some to live. They see a thriving, growing community. But like many who have spent most, or all, of their lives there, they don't know much about the Valley's origins or how it developed. The men and women who built the Valley were like today's people. They were trying to improve their own condition. In doing that, they contributed to the well-being of one another. Jack Swilling was one of them. Swilling...

The Nance Site was a seasonally occupied field house site located in the interior of the Salt River floodplain. Current evidence indicates that the site was sporadically occupied in the late Pioneer through the middle Classic periods. Stratigraphic evidence suggests a human presence in the general vicinity of the site during the Early Agricultural/Early Ceramic Periods; a single thermal pit (Feature 19) was found 1.4 m below the surface. The economic activities of the Hohokam inhabitants...
