Digging up the past
Eighth-graders from the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians recently attended Camp KinoMaage at the U-M Biological Station to explore science and culture. During a dig at a 1,500-year-old site where ancestors of the Burt Lake Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians once lived, the students uncovered bits of pottery, animal bones and stone tools.
