Native Americans and hot springs
Native Americans have a long relationship with hot springs.
There is evidence that many of the major hot springs in the Americas were visited and used by local native peoples. There are artifacts near some of these hot springs that support a history of human activity that extends back thousands of years. Native Americans revered hot springs as a sacred healing place.〔(''Historical Impacts of Geothermal Resources on the People of North America'', John W. Lund, orig. published in Proceedings of the 1995 World Geothermal Congress, Florence, Italy, 1995, revised version published in Geo-Heat Center Bulletin, Vol. 16, No. 4, ''retrieved Nov. 9, 2006'' )

The natural hot springs in Tonopah, Arizona are a prime example. The name "Tonopah" derives from the Western Apache name ''Tú Nohwá'', meaning "Water For Us" or "Water For You". Though there are no ruins or evidence of dwellings in the immediate vicinity of the hot springs, the prevalence of grain-grinding mortar holes, pottery shards, and other man-made objects in the area suggest that this site was frequented for many years by native peoples such as the Hohokam.
The hundreds of very high quality arrowheads found near existing springs in Tonopah attest to its popularity as a hunting ground.
Native Americans always used these natural shrines. If opposing tribes, even those at war, arrived at the same spring, all conflict ceased because they believed they were walking on sacred ground.〔(''Historical Impacts of Geothermal Resources on the People of North America'', John W. Lund, orig. published in Proceedings of the 1995 World Geothermal Congress, Florence, Italy, 1995, revised version published in Geo-Heat Center Bulletin, Vol. 16, No. 4, ''retrieved Nov. 9, 2006'' )〕
