Aboriginally the O'odham occupied about forty thousand square miles of the Sonoran Desert in the present states of Sonora, Mexico and Arizona in the United States. The present day (late twentieth century) population is believed to be the remnant and consolidation of that territory's earlier occupant whom the Spaniards called the "Upper Pimas." The O'odham speak several closely related dialects of the Uto-Aztecan language family. Traditionally, subsistence was based on gathering, hunting, and agriculture with the primary crops being beans, maize, and squash. Each village was autonomous but joined with other villages of the regional band for war and ceremonies.
