Archeology

Arizona is a land full of history and oddities. From fossils to ancient tools, the secrets of the state are buried under layers and layers of sand, dirt and rock.

For almost the entirety of human history, we've been trying to find the beginning. It's not easy. Early humans notoriously didn't keep records of their lives, and if they did, they were lost to time.

It's no secret that Arizona is one of America's most historically significant states. As the "new frontier" in the early 19th century, to the gunslingers and outlaws that slowly faded away into legend, Arizona's historical significance cannot be understated.

The Grand Canyon is one of the most remarkable places on earth. It's listed as a natural wonder of the world, and is regularly visited by millions every year to experience the beauty and scope of Arizona's most famous landmark.

Arizona is an archeologists paradise. The desert landscape has preserved some of the best evidence of prehistoric activity in human history, from dinosaur footprints to ancient forests.

Before mankind inherited this great blue speck in the universe, dinosaurs the size of skyscrapers ruled the earth. While they've devolved into the reptiles and birds we see daily, the bones of their ancestors remain.
