Archaeology at Fort Saint-Louis - Part 11

We had many visitors to the site today. It was great to share our discoveries.

 

Two local public archaeology dig participants returned to the site to see how excavation has progressed in recent weeks

 

Luisa and her grandchildren joined us today to learn about excavating for artifacts.

 

Beth's task today was to complete excavation near a wall feature in preparation for photographs.

 

Many of these rocks were removed after photos of this feature were completed. A number of artifacts were underneath.

 

Matt of Bear River First Nation joined us for the final week's work. He will assist the crew in completing excavations and developing final records before we back-fill the site.
