The National Park Service is not

Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Wisconsin
Historical Society professional staff in
consultation with representatives of the
Forest County Potawatomi Community,
Wisconsin; Ho-Chunk Nation of
Wisconsin; Lac du Flambeau Band of
Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of the
Lac du Flambeau Reservation of
Wisconsin; Menominee Indian Tribe of
Wisconsin; and the Upper Sioux

History and Description of the Remains
In 1957, human remains representing,
at minimum, 24 individuals were
removed from the Wakanda Park Mound
Group (47–DN–0001) in Dunn County,
WI. The site was investigated in 1957 by
Warren Wittry of the Wisconsin
Historical Society, and shortly
thereafter, it was inundated by the
construction of a dam. Wittry and his
team conducted excavations in seven of
the mounds, and recovered human
remains representing one adult male,
eleven adults of indeterminate sex,
seven subadults, and five individuals of
indeterminate age and sex. Burial
practices included both sub-floor pits
and cremation. The human remains
were recovered from eleven of the
fifteen mounds investigated (Mounds 1,
3, 6–8, 10–14, 16). No known
individuals were identified. The seven
associated funerary objects include one
clay mask in fragments, one partial
ceramic vessel, one quartzite flake, one
copper bead necklace, one quartzite
biface, and two groups of charred wood
fragments.
