The location chosen is very close to the geographical center of the region, a place where ancient Americans lived in conflict. He lived on the ridge and had many springs nearby, which provided good and quality water. Dallas was virtually unknown until it was discovered, and its surroundings were the site of numerous episodes during the Atlanta campaign of the American Civil War.

The Dallas Battlefield Park at the Scott Smith Preserve was designed to protect property regional and regional history for future generations.
