We are a professionally mentored group of amateur archaeologists and an affiliate group of Chippewa Nature Center in Midland, Michigan.
We conduct archaeological research on the grounds of Chippewa Nature Center. We investigate both prehistoric Native American campsites and historic settler cabins.
The Oxbow Archaeologists meet on Wednesday evenings (6-8 P.M.) and Saturday mornings (9-12 A.M.). We are always looking for volunteers to help with our projects.
During the winter months the Oxbow Archaeologists are doing lab work. We are washing, sorting, and analyzing artifacts from last season's excavation at the Badour Gate site.
The Oxbow Archaeologists found this fluted point while sorting a large collection of artifacts from a site near Mapleton. The collection was donated to CNC last year.
