They have been on digs in this area for @ 30 or 40 yrs now...
Just hope they dont declare Door County a UN antiquities site and shut it down to mere peasants who will no longer be allowed to recreate or grow cherries and apples there.

Well, the site is a few billion years old (depending how we look on these things) ;-)

Pretty early for Cheesehead migrations, but I think there were small bands of Norwegians, Poles and Finns coming into the area with their characteristic lederhosen, pasties, polka music, Usinger's brats and flagons of Schlitz. A Melanesian tribe arrived from the west also, and settled the town of Kaukauna (original pronunciation was Ka-OO-ka-OOOOO-na).

Oh I see.

Well, the site I live on is 6 billion years old.
Evidence of gardening, however, is only like 30 years old.

Do I issue a press release?

The site along Wisconsin 57 in the southern part of the county may also give researchers more information on Ice Age glaciers in the bay of Green Bay.

Already there is a 30 year waiting list for pepole to view the site ;-)

the earlier occupations date to about 9600 B.C., about 12,000 years ago, because of the style of spear points

Are the spear points Indian?

Speaking of Wisconsin cheese, I used to think it's good stuff.

But, Vermont cheese makes Wisconsin cheese taste like so much Velveeta.
