THE WINNER—Triangle fraternity's first place float in the Relays Parade Saturday morning advanced the theme "KU National Champions."
KU Group to Excavate S. Dakota Indian Site
An Indian village in South Dakota will be excavated this summer by a field party from KU.
Carlyle S. Smith, associate curator of anthropology at the Museum of Natural History and associate professor of anthropology, will direct the project, which will take place in the Big Bend Reservoir on the Missouri River during June and July.
Water to Cover Site
The KU group will cooperate with the National Park Service, which is granting $3,000 for the project, and the Smithsonian Institution.
Big Bend Dam is one of a series of multi-purpose dams being constructed by the U. S. Government in the Missouri Basin, which will flood or destroy large numbers of archaeological sites.
The field work is part of the Inter Agency Archaeological Salvage Program aimed at saving the information which would be lost forever under the water of the reservoirs.
"This work is part of the effort of anthropologists to contribute toward the reconstruction of the cultural history of the American Indian. The occupation by man of the Missouri Valley in South Dakota has been pushed back to at least 10,000 years ago by expeditions similar to this one." Prof. Smith said.
"In addition to those in field work, other students gain experience in the laboratory with the specimens obtained."
Village Had Earth Lodges
Village Had Earth Lodges Prof. Smith and his assistants will be working on the site of an earth lodge village which probably was occupied by the Arikara tribe.
The field party will excavate houses, refuse mounds, and storage pits. They will also search for other features, such as fortification ditches. They expect to find between 20 and 30 thousand specimens in the excavation.
The group will live in a base camp composed of an abandoned building and tents near the excavation site.
