4700-year-old Ohio Secrets: A Peek into the Life of Bullskin Creek Site's Nomads

Buried under modern Ohio's surface, we find a civilization dating back 4700 years. In this period, the land was a home to nomadic tribes during the Late Archaic era. This vast 400 by 600 feet expanse, known as the Bullskin Creek Site or 33CT29, hosts a variety of artifacts. A multitude of stone tools, weapons, and bone tools have been dug up. Graves, however, hold the stories. The relentless plow digs up 5 burials, mysteriously clustered at the site's edge. This site, located near Bullskin Creek, carries the title 'Central Ohio Valley Archaic'. It's believed to have been inhabited between 2750 BC and 1750 BC. Uncommon flint knives abounded here, a rarity exclusive to the Great Miami River's domain. The UC, University of Cincinnati, found this site to be more laden with artifacts than any other they found in the 1970s. In 1978, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
