The Gila River once sustained generations of Akimel O’odham along its banks. When the water faded, so did a way of life. However, the story didn’t end there. Today, the river is being restored, honoring its deep cultural significance and enduring legacy. #WhatHappenedinAZ? Thanks to our friends at Heard Museum and at Gila River Broadcasting Corporation for their production support, Reuben Ringlero for the beautiful drone footage, and our host, Gabe Garcia. | Arizona PBS

The Gila River has always been more than water. For the Akimel O’odham, or “River People,” it was the foundation of life, culture, and identity. Once the lifeblood of their farming, culture, and traditions, the river shaped generations and remains central to their story today. Starting today, each Friday we’ll be sharing a peek into the past that shows what life was like here, in what’s now Arizona, at the time of the American Revolution. We’re calling it WHAT HAPPENED IN AZ? Why are we focusing

Arizona AANHPI for Equity on Instagram: "The Akimel O’odham called themselves Othama until the first account of interaction with non-Native Americans was recorded. . The short name, Pima, comes from the phrase pi ‘añi mac or pi mac, meaning “I don’t know,” which they used repeatedly in their initial meetings with Spanish colonists. The Spanish referred to them as the Pima. English-speaking traders, explorers, and settlers adopted this term."

Experience Scottsdale on Instagram: "Did you know there are over 250 wild horses near Scottsdale?🐴 The Salt River wild horses roam the lower Salt River area within the Tonto National Forest - a 40-minute drive from Old Town Scottsdale. These mustangs descend from horses brought by 16th-century Spanish explorers and the Akimel O’odham Native American tribe. They’re often seen along the riverbanks, cooling off in the river or crossing the riverbed. Interested in seeing the Salt River wild horses?
