Kansas Archaeology Basics __ "In the remote past, Kansas was covered by seas,
and much of its present landscape derives from the rock formations that
developed at that time. The area eventually evolved into a plains or prairie
region, with forests confined mainly to stream courses. People first came to
Kansas some 11,000 to 12,000 years ago, during the last of the Ice Age. Although
the state was not glaciated at that time, the climate was cooler and less
seasonal than today. Huge animals such as mammoth and mastodon roamed the area
until a gradual warming trend brought an end to the Ice Age, and mass
extinctions occurred around 10,000 years ago." You can pick up the story from
there and learn what archaeology has taught us about the Kansan past. - From

Kansas Archeology Training Program, Kansas State Historical Society __ "Less
than one more mile west and the 2005 Kansas Archeology Training Program (KATP)
field school would have been in Colorado. But by staying just east of the state
line, project volunteers had a rare opportunity to work on a cluster of sites
that represents one of the most important archeological finds in the High Plains
and perhaps North America." Learn about research at the Kanorado site. -
