Abstract

The article discusses research on Perrot's Post located along Mississippi River in western Wisconsin near the town of Trempealeau to show the change in narrative that can occur in the community and among archaeologists. Topics discussed include the important role played by archaeology in the creation of community knowledge and how the French presence caused the dismissal of the Native perspective. Information is also presented on early archaeology at the Old French Fort.
