BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A nonprofit archaeological group from Denver is digging in Bismarck, looking for clues on how Mandan American Indians lived 500 years ago.

The excavation this month at Chief Looking’s Village if a follow-up to a previous dig in which members of the PaleoCultural Research Group found remains of Mandan homes.

Research Director Mark Mitchell tells The Bismarck Tribune ( ) that the group wants to get a clearer picture of Mandan earth lodge architecture during the 1500s.

Mitchell estimates that as many as 20,000 Mandan Indians might have lived in the region at one time. He says there is strong evidence at the site of a healthy trade network. Workers have uncovered pottery, stone and other materials from southern Canada, eastern North Dakota, northern South Dakota and Wyoming.
