It is believed that these pueblos were once home to ancestors of the present-day Hopi people. Much of the activity took place during the fourteenth century. There continue to be similarities between the architecture, pottery styles, and art motifs of the Hopi people in the north, and the prehistoric inhabitants of Homolovi. Tour the trail.

More than 300 archaeological sites have been identified within the park boundaries, including four major 14th-century pueblos. The visitor center provides exhibits that interpret the significance of this area. Arizona offers hiking trails throughout the state, so adventure is always only a short drive away!
