*** About Hohokam Ballcourts: Hohokam ballcourts are oval or circular depressions in the ground, historically used for various games, believed to hold social, ceremonial, or commercial significance. Excavations of these sites, mostly found in central and southern Arizona, have provided insights into the social and communal lives of the Hohokam, an ancient Native American culture flourishing from around 200 to 1450 AD. The construction of these courts along with their associated settlements suggests a sophisticated understanding of communal space and architecture by the Hohokam, and positions these sites as crucial in the study of Southwest Native American history.:
