How long have people lived in what is now Montana? When did they arrive, and where did they come from? For over a century, archaeologists have worked alongside Montana's Indigenous peoples to answer these questions. While much has been learned about the origins of the first people to inhabit this region, the exact routes they took and the timing of their arrival remain unclear.
Explore the deep history of Montana, highlighting key archaeological sites and the methods used to date and trace the origin of the artifacts discovered. This engaging and informative work sheds light on how archaeologists have approached the major questions surrounding the peopling of Big Sky Country.
