Dr. Emerson Greenman, of the
University Museums, spent July
and August studying the archaeol-
ogy of one of the oldest known
sites in North America, in the
Manitoulin district of Ontario.
He was accompanied by nine
students from the University of
Michigan, Harvard University and
Radcliffe College in the continu-
ation of work begun in 1938 in the
Manitoulin district.
Main Sites
Three principal sites-a site in
archaeological terms is any area
on which signs of human occupa-
tion are found-were the subject
of Dr. Greenman's study, which
included excavating, photograph-
ing, surveying and mapping.
The sites, which lie along the
north shore of Georgian Bay near
Killarney, Ontario, are actually
raised beaches of the great lakes,
which since the last glacier have
retreated from these earlier
shores.
The three sites are twenty-
eight, fifty-six and two-hundred
ninety-seven feet high. They rep-
resent a graphic picture of the
cultures of three widely-separate
periods, as demonstrated by the
varying heights, and consequently
the ages, of the three sites.
Brought Them Back
Tools of stone, flint and quart-
zite were found in the gravel
where they had been left up to ten
or fifteen thousand years ago. A
number of these tools, along with
pottery fragments and other
pieces, were brought back to the
Museums. ,
Few conclusions about the peo-
ple who left the tools can be
drawn on the basis of the study
thus far, according to Dr. Green-
man. Remains found on the
lowest and youngest site, however,
were probably left some 1400 years
Archeologist
StudiesVillage
The archaeology of one of the
largest and most important village
sites in Michigan, near Niles, was
the subject of a few days' study
this suinmer by Dr. Emerson
Greenman of the University Mu-
seums.
The village was occupied up to
the 1830's by Indian tribes and
contains evidences of three dif-
ferent culture designated as Hope-
welian, Woodland and Upper Mis-
sissippi.
On his return to the University,
Dr. Greenman brought a consider-
able number of previously-exca-
vated specimens of stone imple-
ments and human and animal
skull material which were donat-
ed to the University by John C.
Birdsell of South Bend, Indiana.
'Murdered Alive'
Will Be Presented
The Little Theatre of Willow
Village, which last year presented
several successful productions, will
stage a three-act murder comedy,
"Murdered Alive" Nov. 7, 8 and 9.
The non-profit group was or-
ganized by student veterans and
their wives at Willow Village last
year. It is designed to increase
recreational opprtunities for stu-
lents at the village.

ago by ancesters of modern In-
dian tribes, he said.
Only Guesses
Conclusions about the older
sites must only be guesses, Green-
man said, but added that it is pos-
sible that remains found on the
oldest site dating back ten or fif-
teen thousand years, were left by
ancestors of the Eskimo.
Except for one nall piece of
human bone found on the young-
est site, no human remains were
found.
