| It contains an imposing 4-storey building dating from the late Hohokam period (14th century). The structure was once part of a collection of settlements scattered along the Gila River and linked by a network of irrigation canals.
The 'Great House' can be seen from some distance away owing to the flatness of the terrain, and has a rather curious appearance from afar as the structure is protected from the harsh desert sun by a large metal roof supported by four great pillars. The present cover replaced an earlier wooden construction in 1932. |
