A Spatial Analysis Of Artifacts Using A Geographic Information System At The Grand Portage North West Company Fur Trade Depot (21ck06), Andrew L. Craft
A Spatial Analysis Of Artifacts Using A Geographic Information System At The Grand Portage North West Company Fur Trade Depot (21ck06), Andrew L. Craft
Culminating Projects in Cultural Resource Management
From around 1780 to 1803, the Grand Portage North West Company Fur Trade Depot stood on the western shores of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota. The location served as the company’s inland headquarters along their primary trade route through the region now called the Boundary Waters. Some areas of the site have been partially excavated and examined, but none of the artifact datasets or structural features discovered through archaeology has been analyzed using the computer technology of geographic information systems (GIS). For the first time, GIS is used to spatially distribute one of the site’s artifact datasets from archaeological excavations …
Digitization Of Museum Collections: Using Technology, Creating Access, And Releasing Authority In Managing Content And Resources, Benjamin S. Gessner
Digitization Of Museum Collections: Using Technology, Creating Access, And Releasing Authority In Managing Content And Resources, Benjamin S. Gessner
Culminating Projects in Cultural Resource Management
Through the use of new technologies and platforms, the Minnesota Historical
Society (MNHS) has been able to reach new levels of transparency in working with Dakota communities on the access, management and care of Dakota material culture collections. By digitizing and sharing information about collections and using an online platform for soliciting feedback - which then becomes attached to the permanent record of the object – the MNHS is relinquishing the authority of intellectual control over Dakota material culture which they have historically claimed to have. In doing so, the institution is not only opening pathways to meaningful dialogue, but …
Rethinking Hudson-Meng: A Taphonomic Analysis Of The Faunal Assemblage From 25sx115, Sioux County, Nebraska, Diana M. Barg
Rethinking Hudson-Meng: A Taphonomic Analysis Of The Faunal Assemblage From 25sx115, Sioux County, Nebraska, Diana M. Barg
Culminating Projects in Cultural Resource Management
Hudson-Meng (25SX115), located in the Oglala National Grassland, Sioux County, Nebraska, is a multi-component Cody complex site that was used for the procurement of bison between 10,500 and 11,250 years ago. The site was excavated in the 1970s and 1990s, which led to many, at times divergent, interpretations of the site’s origin and use by Cody complex peoples. Excavations between 2006 and 2012 have led to new evidence and interpretations regarding multiple episodes of site use. The faunal assemblage recovered from the most recent excavations was used for zooarchaeological and taphonomic studies, and is reported here. The identification of taphonomic …
Analyzing The Effects Of Tree Throw On The Wendt Archaeological Site, Jennifer L. Norman
Analyzing The Effects Of Tree Throw On The Wendt Archaeological Site, Jennifer L. Norman
Culminating Projects in Cultural Resource Management
The overall research goal of this thesis is to analyze how tree throw affects archaeological sites in order to gain a greater understanding of site formation processes influenced by this significant environmental factor. This research focused on whether we have the ability to determine if tree throw had previously affected undisturbed areas adjacent to the excavated tree throws areas, which have been significantly disturbed in recent years by wind and fire events. This paper will present the preliminary methods and results of the effects of tree throw on soil stratigraphy and the placement of lithic artifacts at the Wendt site …

Maya Cave Art Survey At Nueve Cerros, Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, Gregory T. Schwab
Culminating Projects in Cultural Resource Management
This final paper is original research developed and executed as a thesis study for the degree of Master of Science in Cultural Resource Management Archaeology at Saint Cloud State University (SCSU). ln addition to SCSU, this project operated in west-central Guatemala under the auspices of Proyecto Salinas de los Nueve Cerros [Salt Plain of the Nine Hills Project] from January until April of 2011. The purpose oftbis study was to record Nueve Cerros cave art, analyze its content, and go on to interpret its potential meanings and significance. Field survey recorded a significant cave art assemblage dispersed between three decorated …

History Faculty Working Papers
Humans remains were uncovered during excavation of the east wing of the James W. Miller Learning Resources Center. This report provides a summary of the site in its historical context and details the archaeological excavation of twenty-one grave shafts, ten of which contained skeletal remains. The archaeological work was undertaken in consultation with the Office of the State Archaeologist.
