Highlighting Hoosier Archaeological Sites: Introduction

Examples from 92 Counties

We are featuring at least one archaeological site from each of Indiana’s 92 counties and will also highlight various archaeology case studies. Archaeologists from many Indiana state agencies and state-sponsored institutions routinely perform projects throughout the state. These documents are really stories of interesting archaeology sites and projects. In these, we try to minimize the technical details and summarize the facts into a simple three part format, integrating photographs, diagrams, and maps where possible to better educate and inform the public about the practice and significance of archaeology around Indiana. We thank our many archaeology colleagues who have contributed documents regarding sites.

Please use the links below to access the regional StoryMaps and individual county stories. The stories will be updated as we add new information. To return to the DHPA Archaeology page click here:  DHPA Archaeology page .
