Native American Burial Ground Unearthed
Author: Kim Fields Source: News 9 Chattanooga (TN)
Title: NATIVE AMERICAN BURIAL GROUND UNEARTHED
It's being called a significant find, Native American remains dating back possibly 11 hundred years. The burial ground was unearthed recently at a construction site on private property in Hamilton County, but archaeologists aren't saying exactly where. They don't want to tip off looters who may vandalize the area. But one archaeologist who was on site says he was very impressed with what he found.
He's not saying where, but Dr. Nick Honerkamp with University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's Institute of Archaeology says at least 18 people were identified at the site along with trash and storage pits.
"There's several burials, some with pretty exotic grave goods which is an indication of high status people that were buried with high status items."
