1941 Map of Vamori

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Papago Indian Reservation lands dominate this 1940s landscape along the United States Mexico border, where traditional Tohono O'odham settlements are concentrated near ephemeral water sources. The community of Vamori sits within the Vamori Valley, while other primary villages like Choulic and San Miguel are located along the banks of Baboquivari Wash. The map documents a lifestyle tied to the desert environment, evidenced by numerous Tanks and a Well scattered throughout the basins to support livestock and agriculture. Elevated terrain such as the Alvarez Mountains and the solitary Morena Mountain provide a stark contrast to the broad alluvial valleys. Local history researchers will find the specific locations of cemeteries near Supi Oidak and Vamori, as well as established outposts like the San Agustin Ranch near the international boundary line.
