Abstract
Excavations by the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropology in 1950 at the Pulcher site in the American Bottoms south of Cahokia, Illinois, reveal a long occupation from about A.D. 500-1300 which was probably not continuous. The major occupation in terms of area and most of the mounds appear to be Late Woodland. A Stirling-Moorehead occupation is known to have occurred in a limited area. This was followed by a southern intrusion of people burying in stone box graves and a "foreign" ceramic complex.Keywords
