Garza County, Administrative division in Northwest Texas, United States.
Garza County is an administrative division in Northwest Texas featuring varied topography across its expanse. The terrain shifts from the flat Llano Estacado plateau to rolling terrain in the eastern sections.
The county formed in 1876 as part of a territorial division of Bexar County and took its name from José Antonio de la Garza. Legal organization came later in 1907 after earlier attempts did not take hold.
Indigenous people left traces here long before European settlement, including distinctive arrow points and hunting tools. These artifacts show how early inhabitants adapted to the landscape.
The county seat is located in Post, Texas, where county government functions are centered. This is the main point for accessing local services and learning about the area.
A fossilized mammoth tusk discovered in 1934 within the county now resides in a major New York museum. The find reveals that ice age animals once roamed these plains.
