Synopsis
Excerpt from The Phase I Archeological Research Program for the Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site, Vol. 1: Objectives, Methods, and Summaries of Baseline Studies
Archeological interest in the Knife River Indian Villages dates back more than a century. Shortly after establishment of the town of Stanton, North Dakota, an archeologist from Minneapolis, Theodore Lewis, visited the villages clustered about the mouth of the Knife River and drew sketch maps of them (wood l986az49) Prior to World War I, the State Historical Society of North Dakota employed a local surveyor to make detailed maps of the same villages, and in the 19203 the Society entertained the idea of acquiring the sites to set them aside as archeological preserves. Unfortunately, the Society was not able to accomplish this. Today we owe a great debt to the foresight of local landowners who have conscientiously preserved these archeological sites over the years, making it possible for ourselves and future generations to appreciate them as an historical and scientific resource.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents findings from an archaeological research program conducted at the Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site. The research aimed to illuminate the archaeological and historical record of Hidatsa and Mandan Native American groups in the region. The program involved excavation and analysis of sites, mapping, and aerial photography. The collected data has been used to revise the culture-history of the northern portion of the Middle Missouri subarea. The excavation of three major sites, Sakakawea, Big Hidatsa, and Lower Hidatsa Villages, has provided detailed information about the depth, age, and complexity of cultural deposits at each site. Test excavations at other sites in the park have helped identify previously unknown prehistoric cultural components and provided insights into the development of the area over time. The book's findings challenge previous assumptions about the area and shed new light on the lives of the Hidatsa and Mandan people who lived in the region for centuries. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780428080037_0
