History and Description of the Remains
On August 10, 1969, human remains
representing, at minimum, two
individuals were removed by Dr. George
C. Frison from 48PA551, the Dead
Indian site, which is located near the
Dead Indian Campground in the
Shoshone National Forest, Park County,
WY. At the time, Frison was the
Wyoming State Archeologist and Head
of the Department of Anthropology at
the University of Wyoming. The
fragmentary human remains are those of
a child eight—nine years old and an
adult (represented by a chipped and
worn tooth). The burial was reported as
probably a secondary internment with
no associated funerary objects. No
known individuals were identified.
The Dead Indian site was first visited
by avocational archeologists in 1967.
Subsequently the Wyoming
Archaeological Society (WAS)
conducted excavations there in 1969,
1971, and 1972. The major excavation of
the site, in 1972, was supervised by
George C. Frison of the University of
Wyoming. Based on three radiocarbon
tests and obsidian hydration tests, the
site is McKean complex, Middle
Archaic (3800+/-110 to 4430+/-250
B.P.).
