Subject: Historical Archaeology of Indian Normal Schools


Dear Colleagues ~



            I am embarking on a new research venture that involves an
Indian Normal School that operated 1888-1896 here in west central
Indiana. While I am having a fair degree of success finding histories
and studies of Indian boarding schools, I have had much less luck
locating historical archaeological investigations of the same.  One
notable exception has been "Not for School, but for Life:  Lessons from
the Historical Archaeology of the Phoenix Indian School" by the Office
of Cultural Resource Management at Arizona State University.  I suspect
other studies exist in the gray literature.  I would appreciate any
additional references.  Thank you.
