Intrasite Feature Analysis of the Crescent Bay Hunt Club Site

Abstract

The Crescent Bay Hunt Club Site (47JE904) is a Developmental Oneota site located on Lake Koshkonong in southeast Wisconsin. This site was occupied circa A.D. 1200 to 1400. Feature remains representing two wigwam style structures and at least one post in trench longhouse structure have been excavated at the site. Using 20 calibrated radio carbon dates ranging from A.D. 1000 to 1500, a Geographic Information System (GIS) is employed to conduct an analysis of the two structure types. It is concluded that despite the range of dates, there is no reason to believe a diachronic pattern is exhibited.
