Research output: Book/Report/Conference proceedingTechnical report

Abstract

The Broglio site is located on a small terrace adjacent to Illinois Route 2 where it crosses an unnamed creek just east of the town of Herrin, Illinois. Broglio is a multicomponent site with artifacts representative of an Early Archaic through Mississippian occupation. This report documents the late Middle Archaic mortuary and habitation component with detailed Archaic feature descriptions, lithic, human remains, plant, and faunal analysis, and a discussion of the Broglio site as it compares to other sites from this same time period, particularly in southern Illinois and the Ohio River valley.
