  • FLINT HILLS ARCHAEOLOGICAL CONFERENCE March 26-27, 2004 PROGRAM and ABSTRACTS
    Twenty-Sixth Annual FLINT HILLS ARCHAEOLOGICAL CONFERENCE March 26-27, 2004 PROGRAM AND ABSTRACTS Hosted by the St. Joseph Museum, St. Joseph, Missouri in cooperation with the Pony Express National Memorial and the St. Joseph Archaeological Society Cover Photography—A King Hill Excavation Scenes from a University of Nebraska excavation at the King Hill site, 23BN1, in southern St. Joseph, Missouri. Photography by Jim D. Feagins (summer of 1972). Note the museum display on the King Hill site at the Friday reception. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> King Hill, an Oneota Village in St. Joseph, Missouri The King Hill archaeological site is located on a high, loess-covered bluff overlooking the Missouri River valley in the southern part of the city of St. Joseph, Missouri. The King Hill village location contains cultural materials associated with the Fanning Phase (Henning 1998:391-393) a protohistoric/early historic Oneota occupation. This Oneota site is thought to probably represent an early Kansa (Kaw) Indian site (Henning 1970:146, 1993:258; Wedel 1959:17; Ruppert 1974:2). Based on the artifacts recovered, it is felt to have been occupied around A.D. 1700 or very shortly thereafter. The Oneota first appeared in the midwest about a thousand years ago. They inhabited an area that stretched from central Missouri to northern Wisconsin and from northeastern Kansas and eastern Nebraska to southwestern Michigan. They are thought to have developed into a number of historic tribes such as the Kansa, Ioway, Missouri, Omaha, Winnebago, Oto, and others, possibly the Osage. At King Hill, the Oneota women made globular-shaped, shell-tempered pottery, usually with high flaring-rims.
