The recent acceleration of the water development and conservation program for the Missouri Basin has produced a crisis for the archeologists concerned with the area. The more permanent villages of the aboriginal inhabitants of the Plains were overwhelmingly concentrated in the valleys of the major rivers. The remains of literally thousands of such villages will be unintentional casualties of the water resources development program. This is the story of what archeologists are doing toward meeting...

Fieldwork was carried out to inventory four areas that will be disturbed by replacement of pit toilets with vault toilets. Investigators looked for surface evidence of cultural materials that may indicate the presence of significant cultural resources, the need for additional exploration, or a change of project site location prior to disturbance of the area from the installation of new vault toilets. Each vault installation will require excavation of a hole approximately four feet deep by five...

Two types, Duncan and Hanna, recorded in Wheeler’s document were recently named and defined by Wheeler. Another, designated Agate Basin, will be described on the basis of specimens made available by Dr. Frank H.H. Roberts, Jr....

For the past several years the Smithsonian Institution has been concerned with the problem of dating cultural developments and climatic events along the main stem of the Missouri River (see Progress. Missouri River Basin, Oct.-Dec., 1959, pp.42-60). One of the most profitable approaches has been through dendrochronology, the charting and comparison of annual growth rings of trees. The study of dendrochronology is not new in the Plains. The work of Harry Weakly in central and western Nebraska,...
