Archeological Project Report: A Summary of Archeological Investigations Conducted in Conjunction with Development of a Permanent Visitor Center/Administrative Facility at the Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site, North Dakota
The investigations summarized herein were conducted for several purposes. The 1979 and 1987 test excavations were designed to evaluate archeological resources in proposed locations for the visitor center and to aid in final placement of the building. The 1988 fieldwork was designed to mitigate the impact of visitor center construction and operation through systematic stripping of the plowzone deposit throughout the construction site and the visitor center grounds. Intact remains of features below the plowzone were documented when encountered. The 1989 through 1991 projects were designed to (1) assure that imported source materials were free of cultural material inclusions; and (2) observe and document any archeological features or artifacts that might unexpectedly be encountered during construction work.
