It is believed that, between 1300 and 1450, periods of drought and severe floods led to the Hohokam tribe's abandonment of the area.
[3] Local
Akimel O'odham settlements, thought to be the descendants of the formerly urbanized Hohokam, concentrated on the
Gila River alongside those of the
Tohono O'odham and
Maricopa peoples. Some family groups did continue to live near the Salt River, but no large villages existed.
Hispanic period
Father
Eusebio Kino, an Italian
Jesuit in the service of the
Spanish Empire, was among the first Europeans to travel here in the 1600s and 1700s. By this time, the valley was within the territory of
New Spain, which was controlled by Spain and later independent Mexico. Father Kino named the river "Río Salado" (Salted River) due to the water's high mineral content.

^ Come on out, have a drink, maybe an appetizer and get to know other business people from all around the valley.
^ Even covens tend keep small because they work best that way when you have a small group of people who know each other and trust each other.
Only southern Arizona experienced the full influence of Hispanic cultures; the Salt River Valley itself remained almost depopulated for several centuries.
Early United States period
American and European "
Mountain Men" likely came through the area while exploring what is now central Arizona during the early 19th century.

The street system in Phoenix is laid out in a traditional grid system, with most roads oriented either north-south or east-west. The zero point is the intersection of Central Avenue and Washington Street. Numbered Avenues run north–south west of Central; numbered Streets run north–south east of Central. Major arterial streets are spaced one mile (1.6 km) apart. The one-mile (1.6 km) blocks are divided into approximately 1000 house numbers north and south, and 800 house numbers east and west, although this varies. Scottsdale Road, being 7200 East, is approximately 7200 / 800 = 9 miles (14 km) east of Central. The Valley Metro bus numbers are also based on this numbering system, with the Central Avenue bus being Route Zero, and Scottsdale Road being Route 72.
