MEDICINE HAT, AB – Members of the South Eastern Alberta Archaeological Society will virtually welcome a district archaeologist for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management for a presentation about stone features found at sites along the Big Bend of the Milk River in Montana.
The sites contain evidence of bison kills and ceremonial and habitation sites. One site in particular is characterized by unique stone features and multiple occupation episodes.
The host group says the stone features, which provide insights into the ways of life on the North American Great Plains centuries ago, are often uncovered by grass fires.
Presenter Josh Chase has worked for the Bureau of Land Management since 2010. He’s based in Havre, Mont. and has worked across north and central Montana developing extensive experience studying and interpreting prehistoric sites.
