The juxtaposition of the ancient and modern makes this former Hohokam village memorable. Excavations at the site, which is tucked between Phoenix and Tempe, have yielded many clues about the daily lives of an ancient people famous for building such a well-engineered 1000-mile network of irrigation canals that some modern canals follow their paths. Stroll past a ball court, a ceremonial platform and a section of the original canals then learn more about this fascinating culture at the small museum.
