Area students are digging into what it means to be
an Archaeologist.
For the past week.
they've been taking part in the Mississippi Valley
Archaeology Center Public Field School.
They've been uncovering artifacts from materials from
thousands of years ago at the Norskedalen Heritage
Farm in Coon Valley.
Even though the digs aren't easy.
for these future archaeologists.
the work was well worth it.
I think it's a good idea especially if you're interested
in archeology.
It's an interesting way to get a feel for it, you
know it's a pretty authentic experience, it's real
excavation.
Any material recovered goes back to the Mississippi
Valley Archaeology Center.
