Pontotoc County, Administrative county in south-central Oklahoma, United States
Pontotoc County encompasses 725 square miles of territory, with Ada serving as the county seat and administrative center for local governance.
The county emerged from parts of the Chickasaw Nation during Oklahoma's statehood in 1907, taking its name from a historic tribal area in Mississippi.
The region maintains strong connections to Native American heritage through the Chickasaw Nation headquarters and Carl Albert Indian Health System in Ada.
The county administration operates through a three-member Board of County Commissioners who manage public services and infrastructure development.
Forty-eight archaeological sites within the county boundaries document the presence of prehistoric Native peoples through different historical periods.
