Hudson-Meng

Hudson-Meng Location

St. Cloud State University is the third major institution to conduct research at the Hudson-Meng site since it was initially excavated in 1968.  Since 2006 we have made several brand new discoveries that are completely changing what archaeologists know about the site.  In addition to finding two new Paleoindian components at the site, our research has also significantly expanded the spatial extent of the cultural deposits.  The research at Hudson-Meng would not be possible without the involvement of dedicated volunteers and students.  The volunteers represent 10 US states, Canada, and Chile and the students represent four universities in addition to SCSU.
