Casa Grande Ruins National Monument, Arizona: A Centennial History of the First Prehistoric Reserve: 1892-1992
Casa Grande Ruins National Monument lies within the basin and range area of southern Arizona which is a part of the Sonoran Desert. There are sixty documented archeological sites in the monument. Some of these sites have been dated to AD 550-700, while the compounds were built between AD 1200-1450. Casa Grande Ruin Reservation was created on June 22, 1892 by order of President Benjamin Harrison to protect a one-of-a-kind remaining Casa Grande or Great House. As a result, Casa Grande became the first prehistoric and cultural site to be established in the United States. The 480 acre reservation boundary changed in 1909, but retained the same acreage. An act in 1926 reduced that area to 472.5 acres. Originally, it was set aside as Casa Grande Ruin Reservation.
