Summary

edit
Description
English: Excavation and Discovery along the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park at the historic Kolb Studio on the South Rim. Open daily 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 pm.

Grand Canyon is a cultural homeland for many Native American people. Only five percent of the park’s 1.2 million acres has been surveyed for archaeological sites, and very few have been excavated.

These ancient sites hold deep significance for present-day indigenous people. Between 2006 and 2009, Grand Canyon National Park joined with the Museum of Northern Arizona for the park’s largest excavation project in nearly 40 years. During that time, teams of archeologists excavated nine sites along the Colorado River. Their findings revealed important new stories about the lives of the people who made the Grand Canyon their home. In this exhibit, you will experience the stories the archeologists uncovered. This exhibit is sponsored by Grand Canyon National Park, the Museum of Northern Arizona, and Grand Canyon Association.
