Marquette Mission Site - St. Ignace, Michigan

1997-98 – Charles Cleland, Laura Kennedy-Door and Heather Van Wormer

1998 Excavation near the reconstructed longhouseCharles Cleland, Laura Kennedy-Door and Heather Van Wormer returned to the site in the 1990s in order to clarify analyses from the 1980s and expand on the 1970s excavations. They also sought to gather data on the extent of the village boundaries and obtain more data on the post-in-trench features. The placement of their units to overlap with the 1970s excavations was key in placing the site maps together.
