Arizona is a state rich in history, with deep roots in Native American culture. Visitors to Globe can get a glimpse of a culture past at the Besh Ba Gowah Salado Ruins and botanical garden, which houses the largest collection of Salado pottery artifacts in the world.

Vistiors will experience the Salado history and way of life, the coming of Apaches, miners and settlers. The Ethno-Botanical Garden depicts the plants that were used by the Salado in their daily lives and illustrates the tools that were used centuries ago.

Visitors can also visit the Don Haines Memorial Library, which includes a number of publications on archaeology and anthropology.
