thumb | right | alt=Location of the Patayan culture, in western Oasisamerica | Location of the Patayan culture, in western Oasisamerica Patayan refers to a group of precontact and historical Native American cultures residing in parts of modern-day Arizona, extending west to Lake Cahuilla in California, and in Baja California.
This cultural grouping also included areas along the Gila River, Colorado River and Lower Colorado River Valley, as well as the nearby uplands, and up north toward the vicinity of the Grand Canyon. Evidence shows that Patayan lifeways have persisted from AD 700 to the 20th century.
