About this map

The petroleum industry defines the rural landscape of Seminole County in the early 1970s, as evidenced by the extensive Wolf Field and Konawa Oil Field. Numerous oil wells and the Cold Springs Oil site are scattered across the terrain, illustrating the region's economic backbone during this era. The small settlement of Wolf serves as a local hub, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor cuts through the southwestern corner, connecting these oil-rich lands to broader markets.

Local heritage is preserved in the presence of rural congregations and family burial grounds, including the Ashena Ch and Eufala Cedar Creek Ch, alongside the Harjo Cem. Waterways like the Little River and Salt Creek wind through the topography, which is marked by numerous section lines and fencing, indicating a structured pattern of land ownership and agricultural use alongside the intensive mineral extraction.
