"
Olive Oatman (1837-1903) was a woman from Illinois who was famously abducted by a Native American tribe (likely the
Yavapai people), then sold to another (the
Mohave people).
She ultimately regained her freedom five years later. The story
resonated in the media, partly owing to the prominent blue tattooing of
Oatman's face by her captors."
This is worth the short read, pretty interesting- quote and more of the story can be found
here
I have yet to go to
Oatman, AZ but I do know that wild donkeys roam around the town and Clark Gable and Carole Lombard honeymooned there
