South Dakota State Historical Society Markers South Dakota State Historical Society Markers Compiled by C.B. Nelson The official South Dakota State Historical Society (SDSHS) marker program began in 1950. State Historian Doane Robinson created the program to erect markers at significant historical locations across the state. At this time, the SDSHS was a public organization and not an official part of state government. Contributions from the SDSHS funded the first markers. Robinson and interested members of the SDSHS identified potential sites and then raised money for the markers. Interested members contributed money both for specific markers and also for those to be purchased at Robinson’s discretion. Funding for these early markers was often a cooperative effort between the SDSHS and interested groups. The Department of Transportation, through its Publicity Division (forerunner of the Department of Tourism), often contributed to the erection of these markers along state highways. State Historian Will Robinson (son of Doane) continued the program reaching out to many local historical societies and civic groups who raised money to purchase markers in their communities. When the SDSHS became a part of state government, the program continued to purchase markers through donations. The marker program has always, and continues to be, primarily funded through private donations with very limited state funds expended on the program.

  • Teacher’S Guide Teacher’S Guide Little Bighorn National Monument
    LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT TEACHER’S GUIDE TEACHER’S GUIDE LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Teacher’s Guide is to provide teachers grades K-12 information and activities concerning Plains Indian Life-ways, the events surrounding the Battle of the Little Bighorn, the Personalities involved and the Impact of the Battle. The information provided can be modified to fit most ages. Unit One: PERSONALITIES Unit Two: PLAINS INDIAN LIFE-WAYS Unit Three: CLASH OF CULTURES Unit Four: THE CAMPAIGN OF 1876 Unit Five: BATTLE OF THE LITTLE BIGHORN Unit Six: IMPACT OF THE BATTLE In 1879 the land where The Battle of the Little Bighorn occurred was designated Custer Battlefield National Cemetery in order to protect the bodies of the men buried on the field of battle. With this designation, the land fell under the control of the United States War Department. It would remain under their control until 1940, when the land was turned over to the National Park Service. Custer Battlefield National Monument was established by Congress in 1946. The name was changed to Little Bighorn National Monument in 1991. This area was once the homeland of the Crow Indians who by the 1870s had been displaced by the Lakota and Cheyenne. The park consists of 765 acres on the east boundary of the Little Bighorn River: the larger north- ern section is known as Custer Battlefield, the smaller Reno-Benteen Battlefield is located on the bluffs over-looking the river five miles to the south. The park lies within the Crow Indian Reservation in southeastern Montana, one mile east of I-90.

  • Black-Tailed Prairie Dog Management Plan

The principal objectives of the management plan are to ensure that the black-tailed prairie dog is maintained in its role as a keystone species in the mixed-grass prairie ecosystem on the North Unit, while providing strategies to effectively manage instances of prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands. The plan also seeks to manage the North Unit’s prairie dog populations to sustain numbers sufficient to survive unpredictable events that may cause high mortality, such as sylvatic plague, while at the same time allowing park managers to meet management goals for other North Unit resources. Primary considerations in developing the plan include conservation of the park’s natural processes and conditions, identification of effective tools for prairie dog management, implementing strategies to deal with prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands, and protection of human health and safety.

That transformed the trail leading from Sidney, Nebraska, to the Black Hills into a major thoroughfare. By the 1880s new railroad lines were drawing most traffic away from that frontier highway.

Data from marine sediments suggest that deposits from two asteroid impacts (one close, one far away) may be preserved in the Badlands. These impact- generated deposits may represent late Maestrichtian events or possibly the terminal K-T event. Interpretation is supported by paleontological correlation, sequence stratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, and strontium isotope geochronology. This research is founded on nearly a decade of NPS approved field work in Badlands National Park and a foundation of previously published data and interpretations. The K-T boundary occurs within
