OVERTON. The ancient, mysterious Anasazi civilization is brought to life at this museum. With the construction of Hoover Dam, Lake Mead threatened a number of original Anasazi dwellings. The museum showcases artifacts retrieved from the flooded sites, including an impressive collection of pottery, tools, maize-grinding implements, jewelry, and arrowheads. With distinctive black and white geometric designs, the pottery and potsherds are especially beautiful and representative of the rich Anasazi culture.
