Project Name: Iliniwek Village State Historic Site, MO (1);
Reference: Grantham, L.D., Butler, W.B., DeVore, S.L., and J.W. Walker. (1995). Geophysical Investigations at Iliniwek Village State Historic Site: A 17th Century Illini Village in Northeast Missouri. Paper presented at the 53rd Annual Plains Conference, Laramie, Wyoming.
Magnetic survey data from the Iliniwek Site. While the data revealed a few magnetic anomalies, the main concentration was associated with the Missouri State Parks' previous excavation north of the 1995 excavation block. Other anomalies appeared to be associated with the village occupation. A few of the magnetic dipole anomalies may be fire hearths or concentrations of fire cracked rock while others are European iron artifacts.
