DANKWORTH POND
Dankworth Village
The Dos Arroyos Trail leads to a recreated
Native American village. This village contains
replicas of dwellings, grinding stones, roasting
pits, and other tools and artifacts used by a
variety of southwestern native people. The
village demonstrates the changing lifestyles
starting with prehistoric peoples and going
through to Mogollon tribes.
This part of the park is located on property
managed by the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) and is operated through joint efforts
between BLM and Arizona State Parks & Trails.
This area is often used to educate local school
groups about Native American history.
