The Apishapa culture, or Apishapa Phase, a prehistoric culture from 1000 to 1400, was named based upon an archaeological site in the Lower Apishapa canyon in Colorado.[1] The Apishapa River, a tributary of the Arkansas River, formed the Apishapa canyon.[2] In 1976, there were 68 Apishapa sites on the Chaquaqua Plateau in southeastern Colorado.[3]
