The Board agreed to table the issue until the June meeting, and asked that a fully revised document including the By-Laws changes be sent out to the Board for review. 1 Meeting Minutes, March 4, 2021 State of Wisconsin BURIAL SITES PRESERVATION BOARD VII. WITRC REPORT Mr. William Quackenbush reported that WITRC will meet on March 11, 2021 at 9:00 AM, and that the agenda will focus on filling the Vice-Chair position now that Ms. Melinda Young is stepping away from her THPO position, and on obtaining documents from Tribal leadership formalizing WITRIC positions. WITRC has also invited representatives of the University system to discuss a more standardized, streamlined, and systemic approach to preservation, land acknowledgements, and other issues related to university properties so that work on those issues is not duplicated. WITRC may ask that the Wisconsin Historical Society be included in these discussions. Ms. Stiles asked Mr. Quackenbush to update the Board on the status of invitations to out-of- state Tribes to join the RIP. Mr. Quackenbush has a list of out-of-state Tribes kept informally by the Ho-Chunk and obtained from the Wisconsin Historical Society. Mr. Quackenbush suggested that a Board member attend the WITRC meeting next week (March 11, 9:00 AM) to explore the issue, and noted that the Board could be accorded a permanent place on the WITRC agenda. Ms. Stiles and Dr. Haas both agreed to attend. Ms. Stiles also requested confirmation that Tribal members have gotten reappointment notices for their Board positions from the Governor’s office. Dr. Penkiunas confirmed that all Board members have been re-appointed on staggered appointment schedules. Mr. Quackenbush indicated that there had been informal discussions within his office regarding application for the seat formerly held by Ms. Corina Williams, but that COVID has delayed that application. Mr. Quackenbush will continue to follow up on the application process. VIII. CONSIDERATION OF APPLICATIONS FOR COMPLETION AND ENTRY TO AND/OR REMOVAL FROM THE REGISTRY OF INTERESTED PERSONS Mr. John Gorski described his work at the Kneeland Cemetery (BCR-0008) in support of his application to the Registry of Interested Persons. Mr. Gorski has been working with WHS, the Catholic Archdiocese, local drone operators, UW-La Crosse, and Lawrence University to resolve issues of site boundaries and ownership that have resulted in disturbance to the site. GPR work has identified formal burials and another area that may represent a Native American burial ground. Upon motion to accept Mr. Gorski to the RIP by Dr. Stevenson, and second by Dr. Haas, the Board approved Mr. Gorski’s application to the RIP. Ms. Tammy Haefer described her efforts to investigate and protect the Evergreen/Grand Chute Pioneer Cemetery (BOU-0069), in support of her application to the Registry of Interested Persons. Ms. Haefer is concerned about the current condition of the cemetery, and in particular with the protection of un-marked gravesites. She hopes to continue to build interest in the cemetery and to improve caretaking practices. Dr. Haas offered to share historic documents obtained during the monitoring process with Ms. Haefer. Upon motion to accept Ms. Haefer to the RIP by Mr. Reckner, and second by Dr. Stevenson, the Board approved Ms. Haefer’s application to the RIP. 2 Meeting Minutes, March 4, 2021 State of Wisconsin BURIAL SITES PRESERVATION BOARD Mr. Robert Gariepy described his efforts to protect and restore Waterford/Old Settler’s Cemetery (RA-0304/BRA-0021) on behalf of the organization Explore Waterford. Explore Waterford is working with archaeologist Ned Farley to restore the site to something approaching its original condition. Upon motion to accept Mr. Gariepy to the RIP by Mr. Grignon, and second by Dr. Stevenson, the Board approved Mr. Gariepy’s application to the RIP. IX. WISCONSIN HISTORICAL SOCIETY STAFF REPORTS i. Report on all Determinations Pertaining to the Disposition of Human Remains and Associated Burial Objects – Dr. Tyler Howe Dr. Haas asked for an update on re-commencement of disposition decisions. Dr. Howe indicated that WHS has not moved forward on this matter. WHS is also still working to resolve WHS’s rule-making authority in order to move forward with HS2 revisions. The SHPO continues to follow up regarding the burial discovery at Camp Shaginappi in Fond du Lac County. SHPO staff are investigating a report of human remains at another location that was just received. More details on this latter discovery will be available in the next few days. ii. State Historic Preservation Officer Report – Dr. Daina Penkiunas Dr. Penkiunas provided updates on a number of maters pertaining mostly to staffing changes and upcoming events. Mr. Broihahn, State Archaeologist, has re�red and Dr. Tyler Howe is ac�ng state archaeologist. Ms. Jen Davel, the WHS Deputy SHPO has taken another job in the private sector. The Wisconsin Historical Society is now hiring for the Deputy SHPO posi�on, a staff archaeologist (not the state archaeologist), and an American Indian curator. The later posi�on will become the Society’s NAGPRA lead. The state archaeologist posi�on will be hired later in the year. WHS is open for research by appointment, but is s�ll working with skeleton staffing. Archaeology and Historic Preserva�on month is in May, and the calendar is ready to accept events. The annual Board of Curator’s awards are accep�ng nomina�ons for preserva�on, restora�on, and the life�me achievement categories. Historic structures reports are underway for Society projects. The WHS museum has a new loca�on and has obtained funding, so planning is gearing up on that front. The annual archaeology workshop will be held end of April. A tax credit workshop will be held on March 26th. Work con�nues on the Menominee River NRHP nomina�on, with the con�nued assistance of Mr. Broihahn and SHPO counterparts in Michigan. iii. SHPO Compliance Section Report –Dr. Tyler Howe Compliance has received over 252 requests to disturb uncatalogued burial sites since the previous meeting; all are typical requests with no major issues attached. With regard to catalogued sites, several matters are ongoing. Conversations continue with regard to Lizard Mound Park. The Milwaukee Audubon Society presented SHPO and WDNR with a draft management plan just before the holidays and SHPO staff determined that the management plan is not adequate. WDNR staff concurred. Comments on the draft were forwarded to MAS. The Sauk County Historical Society has requested to cut trees at Man Mound NHL, including a tree between an arm and the body of the mound. The RIP was 3 Meeting Minutes, March 4, 2021 State of Wisconsin BURIAL SITES PRESERVATION BOARD asked to comment on that matter, and one objection has been received so far.

  • The History of Lizard Mound County Park
    THE HISTORY OF LIZARD MOUND COUNTY PARK Lizard Mound Park was established in 1950. The park was acquired from the State of Wisconsin in 1986. Lizard Mound is named for its most outstanding effigy mound shaped like a gigantic lizard. Lizard Mound County Park consists of 28 fine examples of effigy mounds that rise three to four feet above the surrounding ground level. Native Americans we now know as the Effigy Mound Builders lived in Wisconsin and bordering states between 700 and 1200 A.D. These Native Americans built mounds shaped like mammals, reptiles, birds and other creatures both real and mythical. The custom of building effigy burial mounds died out about 800 years ago; it was a custom unique to this general area. Unfortunately, very little else is known about the Mound Indians. Even Native Americans who lived in Wisconsin when the first European settlers arrived didn't know why, or by whom, the mounds were built. The earliest data concerning the mounds in the area of Lizard Mound County Park was in the form of a sketch map resulting from field investigations made by Professor Julius L. Torney of Milwaukee in 1883. In his sketch of the mound group, Professor Tourney illustrated a total of 47 Indian mounds. Archeological explorations were conducted in 1960. Exploration of some of the effigy mounds has revealed that the dead were sometimes placed in pits and the effigy mounds were built over the pits. Artifacts such as clay pots, projectile points, pipes, bone harpoons and beads were sometimes placed with the dead.

  • Social Scale of Mesa Verde Anasazi Kivas
    5 Social Scale of Mesa Verde Anasazi Kivas William D. Lipe Pueblo I to III Mesa Verde settlements typically have one protokiva or kiva for each block of six to nine rooms, a pattern indicative ofkiva use by a relatively small and common social segment such as an extended family or minima/lineage. These ordinary small Pueblo I protokivas and Pueblo II and III kivas were probably used for both ritual and domestic activities. Chacoan outliers in the Mesa Verde area have fewer and larger kivas, and a less regular patterning of kivas to room blocks. Kivas at Chacoan sites may have functioned at a larger scale of social integration than at Mesa Verde settlements. At roughly AD.l300, approximately coincident with the abandonment of the Mesa Verde area, most Puebloans shifted from a Mesa Verde-like pattern of many small kivas to one of large plaza-oriented sites with only a few relatively large kivas. Following Steward (1937) and Adams (this volume), this suggests a larger integrative scale for kiva use, and stronger village-level organization. Continuities in kiva architec­ ture and ritual features suggest that aspects of the religious ideology associated with earlier kivas were incorporated into the new organization. Introduction struction of large pueblos around plazas became com­ mon in the Rio Grande through Western Pueblo areas, he model for this paper is Julian Steward's classic although Steward did not discuss this (but see Adams' T 1937 article entitled "Ecological Aspects of South­ comments in Chapter 11, this volume). western Society."

RICH July 2013 Copyright Jennifer A. Rich 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Humans have been intrigued by their surrounding landscape for centuries. Sometimes intrigue has led to particular manipulations of the land by groups of people, such as the building of mounds and other monuments. Thus, the study of past landscape use is an important part in understanding our own interests. Over the years, developments in archaeology have come to include various perspectives on how past landscapes should be interpreted. This thesis will examine the changes within the theoretical perspectives in landscape archaeology through the decades.

  • Lizard Mound County Park
    Lizard Mound County Park HISTORY: Lizard Mound Park was established in 1950. It is named for its most outstanding Indian mound shaped like a gigantic lizard. Lizard Mound County Park consists of 28 fine examples of effigy mounds. It is an unusually beautiful group of mounds, and one is especially impressed with the prominent height and careful construction of each mound. The majority of the mounds rise three to four feet above the surrounding ground level. Indians we now know as the Effigy Mound Builders lived in Wisconsin and bordering states between A.D. 500 and A.D. 1000. These Indians built burial mounds shaped like mammals, reptiles, birds and other creatures both real and mythical. They also constructed conical, oval and linear mounds. The custom of building effigy burial mounds died out about 1000 years ago; it was a custom unique to this general area. Unfortunately, very little else is known about the Mound Indians. Even Indians who lived in Wisconsin when the first white men arrived didn’t know why, or by whom, the mounds were built. Effigy mounds are found mostly in central and southern Wisconsin. Hundreds of the mounds were destroyed by early settlers who didn’t know what they were. Constant cultivation of the land eliminated all traces of most of the mounds. It is estimated that Wisconsin had at least 5,000 effigy mounds when the white settlers first arrived. The earliest data concerning the mounds in the area of Lizard Mound County Park was in the form of a sketch map resulting from field investigations made by Professor Julius L.
