Middens Marker
Photographer: Barry Swackhamer
Taken: August 28, 2020
Caption: Middens Marker
Additional Description: Captions: (bottom left) Bison hunt from a painting by Karl Bodmer; (right) Archeological cross-section of a midden. By focusing on everyday debris, you can begin to picture village activity yet miss the rich ceremonial life. For that you must rely on maintains and sketches by 19th-century artists George Catlin and Karl Bodmer. Catlin visited Awatixa Village, the nest site along the trail.
