Abstract:

This report describes archaeological and historical investigations in selected portions of the Pembina River project in Cavalier and Pembina counties, North Dakota. Greater than a 25 percent field reconnaissance survey was performed in the proposed floodway control structures. Investigations yielded 12 newly discovered sites in additions to 17 previously recorded sites. Thirteen of the 17 previously recorded sites were reexamined and surface collections made. Research revealed the presences of human occupation in the project domain for at least the past 11,000 years. Prehistoric components represented include a possible Paleo-Indian site and Late Archaic, Woodland and Blackduck occupations. Historic sites include possible Metis campsites, early trading posts, a massacre site, farmsteads, an early grist mill and bridge, a prehistoric and historic fish tramp, a brick plant, and locations of early communities. Specific recommendations are presented for each of the projected alternatives. Contents Scope of Work and Technical Proposal and cost Site leads Transcriptions of Grave Markers at Hyde Park Cemetery Site Forms.
