Platte River Campground Site

Platte River Campground Site is an archaeological location along a river stretch that spans several hundred meters and holds numerous ancient objects. The place contains ceramic pieces, stone tools, and other items from earlier inhabitants.

Archaeological work from 1987 revealed that the location was used over a long time span, particularly during two important prehistoric periods. The findings suggest that groups returned to this place repeatedly, possibly to gather resources.

The location reveals pottery and stone tools left behind by people who once lived here. These artifacts show how residents of the region went about their everyday activities.

The location is now a campground where visitors can experience ancient findings in their natural setting. You should wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for uneven ground along the river bank.

Copper objects were found at this location, showing that residents were familiar with metalworking at an early time. This discovery is rare and raises questions about how advanced these early communities were.
