Archaeologist Sets Yellowstone Cultural Record Straight In Book

Author: Robin Beaver Source: Casper Star-Tribune (WY)

Title: ARCHAEOLOGIST SETS YELLOWSTONE CULTURAL RECORD STRAIGHT IN BOOK
As an archaeologist, Lawrence L. Loendorf spends much of his time trekking through the basins and mountains of Wyoming and Montana.
He digs for the truth, peeling away layers of history in nature's landscape. He and other archaeologists recover material remains so that this and future generations may understand the origins of prehistoric and long-ago societies.
But recently, Loendorf's aim has been to expose layer upon layer of untruths not found in the ground or on rocks, but in literature that dates back to the days of the early Yellowstone National Park and exploration of the American West.
For the last decade, Loendorf has been working on his own book, "Mountain Spirit: The Sheep Eater Indians of Yellowstone," which presents a vivid picture of the vanished way of life of the Sheep Eater Indians, a group whose existence and accomplishments have been largely ignored in histories of Native peoples.
