It would be nice to have more info on the geology of the buttes, which easily the most distinctive aspects of the park. The article says they're sandstone, which is not really true--they're rather a conglomerate, and a rather odd one at that: chock full of un-eroded (sharp edged) rocks of various types, cemented together with a shale/sandstone matrix. A couple references elsewhere on the web imply the rock came from a landslide off of a mountain, but the location of the putative (and now eroded) mountain is unknown. I'm not enough of a geologist (read: I sometimes collect rocks) to evaluate that. And I found no indication of why, if these are the remnants of a landslide, they're standing up as buttes while everything around them has been eroded flatter than a pancake.

Anyway, I wish a geologist would add some enlightenment to this article. Mcswell (talk) 05:28, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Let's not use the word extinct to describe the disappearance of tribe. Native Americans are still homo sapiens sapiens. Curoi (talk) 02:14, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a new editor, I would like to propose an addition to the Papago Park Wikipedia page to include the Arizona Heritage Center. Currently, the Arizona Heritage Center, an important cultural and historical institution located within Papago Park, is not listed on the page.

I believe that including information about the Arizona Heritage Center on the Papago Park Wikipedia page would enhance the page's completeness and provide valuable information to readers interested in exploring the park's attractions. KatrinaNovotny (talk) 00:01, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
