About this map

Antlers serves as the primary hub on this survey, situated just south of the winding Kiamichi River. The landscape transitions from the urban grid of the town center to a series of rural communities and crossroads, including Ethel, Dela, and Hamden. Local history is anchored by landmarks such as the Odd Fellows Cem and the White Church Cem, while the Big Rocks Picnic Area highlights the area's recreational geography.

The 1990s revisions, shown in purple, illustrate the modernization of the transport network, most notably the path of the Indian Nation Turnpike (Toll). Waterways like Beaver Creek and Dumpling Creek define the drainage patterns of the region, flowing toward the larger river to the north. This map captures the intersection of traditional Oklahoma settlements with late-twentieth-century infrastructure developments, spanning the border of Pushmataha and Choctaw counties.
