Phase II Testing at a Prehistoric Site (32BA418) at Lake Ashtabula (Sheyenne River) Barnes County, North Dakota.

Abstract

32BA3 is located in the S1/2W1/4 and N1/2W1/4, Sec. 18, T141N, R58W, Barnes County, North Dakota. It lies in a cultivated field and wooded area on the floodplain along the left bank of the Sheyenne River, just below the Baldhill Dam. The site consists of a very low density scatter of cultural material with two surface artifact concentrations. It is evaluated as a prehistoric campsite with evidence for big game butchering, bone grease rendering, and hide processing activities. It is recommended that certain parts of the site not be impacted by earth moving equipment.
