A dugout canoe used by indigenous people 3,000 years ago recently recovered from Wisconsin's Lake Mendota
The canoe, which was found in pieces in the lake bed, was removed in collaboration with Wisconsin's Native Nations, the historical society said in a news release. "Members from the Ho-Chunk Nation and Bad River Tribe were present at the canoe recovery," the historical society said in the news release."Finding an additional historically significant canoe in Lake Mendota is truly incredible and unlocks invaluable research and educational opportunities to explore the technological, cultural, and stylistic changes that occurred in dugout canoe design over 3,000 years," said James Skibo, the society's state archaeologist.
"The recovery of this canoe built by our ancestors gives further physical proof that Native people have occupied Teejop for millennia, that our ancestral lands are here and we had a developed society of transportation, trade and commerce," Ho-Chunk President Marlon WhiteEagle said.
