History and Description of the Remains
At an unknown date, human remains
representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the
Flucke site (47CR3) in Crawford County,
WI. The Flucke Site is located at the
edge of the Prairie du Chien Terrace,
overlooking the confluence of the
Wisconsin and Mississippi Rivers. It is
on the east side of the Mississippi River
and the north side of the Wisconsin
River. The multi-component site
comprises a mound group which once
contained at least 15 conical mounds,
one linear mound, and a two-acre
habitation site. In the 1880s, five of the
mounds were excavated by the Bureau
of American Ethnology. By 1972, the
mound group had been leveled. The
human remains in the UW Department
of Anthropology were collected from the
surface of the site by avocational
archeologist Al Reed and donated to the
Department. The remains consist of a
partial cranial fragment belonging to an
adult of unknown sex. No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.

Department of Anthropology have
