Olive Oatman Restaurant

The town (and Olive Oatman's) was named after Olive Oatman (a young girl from Illinois) who, according to legend, was kidnapped by the Yavapai tribe who forced her to become a slave, was later traded to the Mohave Indians, who treated her much better. They adopted her as one of their own and tattooed her face (as was tribal custom). She was released after spending three years with the tribe. Her family were settlers in the area that would become Oatman. The Old West style joint serves up pub fare in casual digs.
