The
University Of Arizona
Mystery's®
The
University of Arizona
now sits on
top of lands that were once located far outside
the Tucson City Limits in a
cresote bush
filled,
rattlesnake infested area of scrub
desert sand
jointly owned by a group of
card sharks,
professional gamblers,
saloon owners,
and one of
their wives
[1].
If one goes back
even farther in history,
the property on which the current University of Arizona
sits was an area sometimes inhabited, traveled across,
and utilized by different successive Tribes,
Explorers
[2],
Spanish Soldiers,
and
numerous other groups both known and unknown[3].
Since that time many things have not only occurred on that land,
but
as the
University of Arizona continues
its ever continual
outward expansion each year taking over bigger portions
of the
surrounding neighborhoods and commercial properties.
The campus has now sprawled
out over the top of many old trails,
streets, ranches, pits, water wells, homes, graves and
graveyards, very old hand dug water wells, and areas
used for thousands of years
by the many people of the many different cultures
passing through and living in the
area.
It is not unusual under those many centuries of circumstances
that what lies deep underneath may have become disturbed.
