"...was inhabited by Fremont people, an Indian culture known for its
masonry work...."

BTW, I know of a very interesting book that addresses this subject of such cultures....

I think he ought to wait for the items to be dated before making an assumption that this represents a late migration.

That sounds like the Anasazi but they weren't in the Fremont area, were they?

The Fremont people lived in what is now Utah and Colorado, mostly from about 300 A.D. to 1200 A.D.
Could be coincidence, but right around 1200 A.D. is when the Athabascan peoples were moving into the area from the North.
To: blam
Oh, yes, this is that find that rancher so recently revealed after protecting it for so long and making sure now that it will remain pristine and untouched, except for scholars. Great to read. Interesting as all get out. Thank you for reminding me about this!

Displaced people...all of them. The buffalo range area probably shifted around...and they followed the buffalo.
To: pepsionice
Maybe, but perhaps inter-tribal warfare had a lot to do with the displacing. The Athabascan peoples were notoriously warlike. Their descendents include the Navajoes and Apaches amongst others.
To: Frumious Bandersnatch
It could also have something to do with the introduction of the horse by the Spanish...which generally disrupted the previous tribal layout...but I'm not sure of the chronology.

Not likely, since the Freemont people disappeared about 1200, and the earliest that the Spaniards were in the Americas was 1492.
To: Frumious Bandersnatch
Wow....1200.
That was even before I was born...I think.
This is a great subject of study, and I look forward to reading more. The dynamics of early tribal peoples here are something we hear very little of, and I have always wondered about.
Great stuff.

"Then they disappeared," Hadden said. "I mean they flat disappeared. No one knows what happened to them." I know!
I know!
They were murdered to the last man, woman and child by the kinder, gentler, totally useless and ignorant indiginous savages that persist to this very day.
