Late Prehistoric Cultural Affiliation Study, Grand Portage National Monument, Minnesota

Author(s): Caven Clark

Year: 1999

Summary

Archaeological Consulting Services conducted a late prehistoric cultural affiliation study for Grand Portage National Monument. The project included developing a background on the issues involved in linking the late prehistoric (A.D. 700 to 1600) record of often vague or poorly defined archeological cultures with a historic record in which conjectured band, tribal, and/or linguistic identities are known. The purpose of this project was to provide the basis for determining cultural affiliation in the event of the unintentional discovery of human remains or cultural items under The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990 (NAGPRA), and to provide for the Monument a synthesis of its late prehistoric archeological record.
