Prehistoric irrigation in the Salt River Valley is described. Information about the re-use of prehistoric canals and their gradual obliteration since the settlement of the Phoenix area in historic times is presented. A classification for the identification of canal remains is outlined. Finally, the prehistoric canal complex in the vicinity of Mesa is discussed in detail. The map accompanying this article gives the location of more than 315 miles of prehistoric irrigation canals
