Snaketown, Archaeological site in Sacaton, United States.
The Hohokam settlement spans across 120 acres of desert land near Phoenix, featuring remains of ancient dwellings and agricultural infrastructure alongside the Gila River.
Archaeological excavations in 1934 by the Gila Pueblo Foundation uncovered sixty mounds, two ball courts, and an extensive network of irrigation canals dating from 300 BCE.
The inhabitants developed advanced farming methods through irrigation systems up to ten miles long, enabling cultivation of corn, beans, squash, tobacco, and cotton.
The archaeological site, designated as Hohokam Pima National Monument, remains closed to visitors for preservation, but artifacts are displayed at Arizona State Museum.
Residents constructed rectangular pit houses by digging depressions in the earth and adding branch walls with mud adobe supported by wooden posts.
