This publication contains a collection of archaeological research papers. Six of the papers were originally presented at a 1969 symposium held in conjunction with the spring meeting of the Iowa Academy Of Science at the University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls. These include: “A Review of Iowa River Valley Archaeology by Adrian D. Anderson, Wolfe Havana Hopewell Site by Dean F. Straffin, Environmental Reconstruction Through Molluscan Remains: Preliminary Report on the Banks Site by David A. Baerreis, Small Mammal Remains from the Wittrock Mill Creek Culture Site by Holmes A. Semken, Skadeland Mill Creek Site by Larry J. Zimmerman, and Great Oasis Culture Distributions by Dale R. Henning. Four additional papers were added: The Late Woodland Walters Site by Adrian D. Anderson, Rates of Soil Development at Two Wisconsin Effigy Mound Sites by William M. Hurley, Malone Terrace Oneota Site by Jerry Clark, and Oneota Longhouses by Marshall McKusick. At the time these ten papers were selected for this volume they were considered to offer greatly needed data, new approaches, and new interpretations of the archaeological remains. The authors of these papers have all made many important contributions to our knowledge of Iowa prehistory.
