* The geographical features of the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]], as well as the presence of the [[Gerudo Great Skeleton]], the other giant skeletons, and the marine-lifelike [[Molduga]]s imply that it may have been a vast sea in the past, as the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] leading to the desert may have been carved out of solid rock by a now dried river that led to the aforementioned sea, and the various archways at the [[Great Cliffs]] may have been water-carved too. The [[Karusa Valley]] may have also been carved by a glacier from the [[Gerudo Highlands]].

* Most of the stone in the ruins of the province, as well as [[Gerudo Town]] itself, is implied to have come from the marble/limestone quarry east of the [[Gerudo Desert Gateway]], though no Gerudo or Hyruleans are found there. The causeways flanking the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] may have been related to the quarry as well, though some of those causeways were shown in a flashback when the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris]] was dug out. However, older constructs are shown to have been carved out of the red stone from the mountains surrounding the desert, including the [[Seven Heroines]] and the [[Eighth Heroine]].
