Located along a spring-fed stream, Indian Garden has attracted and supported as wide a range of activities as perhaps any site in the area below the Mogollon Rim. Recent work by Desert Archaelogy has shown that prehistoric people used the Indian Garden area as early as 770 B.C., and that Apaches exploited the locality during the early twentieth century (Ferguson and Anyon 2000a; Sarah Herr, personal communication 2007). From the 1880s to the turn of this century, the site served sequentially as...

Shí Kéyaa: The Western Apache Homeland and Archaeology of the Mogollon Rim (2009)
Western Apache history, as it relates to the State Route 260 (SR 260) Payson-to-Heber project implemented by Desert Archaeology, Inc., is summarized in this report. This project was conducted to mitigate the impact of highway realignment and improvement on cultural resources along a 74-km- (46-mile-) long stretch of right-of-way between Payson and Heber (Milepost 256 to Milepost 302) (Herr 1999).

State Route 260 - Payson to Heber Archaeological Project: Results of Archaeological Testing at Indian Garden, Gila County, Arizona (2005)
State Route (SR) 260 from Payson to Heber, Arizona, is currently being realigned and improved, in sections, by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). The overall SR 260 project includes construction of 45.8 miles of highway between mileposts 256.2 and 302. Archaeological sites are found only in the western 22 miles, on Tonto National Forest land below the Mogollon Rim. Construction is being staged in six segments, including (from west to east): Lion Springs, Preacher Canyon, Little...

Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber-Kohls Ranch Section (2017)
The Kohls Ranch highway section lies at the center of the State Route (SR) 260 —Payson to Heber project area. This section also crosses a number of central places of the past. Here, near its headwaters, Tonto Creek is a mountain stream, whose terraces widen briefly near the highway before the canyon narrows into the Hells Gate Wilderness to the south. Indian Garden, a mile to the east, is a spring-fed meadow. Geology transitions in this area, as the topography created by the friable granites to...
