1955 Map of Black Falls NE

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Wupatki National Monument and its ancient history are preserved here at the edge of the Little Colorado River. This mid-century survey captures a transition between the monument's archaeological sites and the expansive Navajo Indian Reservation. Cultural landmarks like the Crack-in-Rock Ruins stand near the river's winding path, illustrating the area's deep human history. The landscape is defined by stark geological formations, from the prominent Black Point to the rising elevations of Ward Terrace in the northeast. Small-scale human presence is noted at the Riveredge settlement and a single Hogan, providing researchers with a look at the sparse inhabited points within the Desert environment during the 1950s. The map also traces the Indian Reservation Boundary as it follows the riverbed, reflecting the intersection of federal and tribal lands.
