Red Wing Locality Contents Stories Sources Search ... Home Overview of Environment and Archaeology Geography map Topography and Environment Precontact Cultures ... site map Geography Southeast from St. Paul, and below the mouth of the St. Croix River, the Mississippi becomes the boundary between the states of Minnesota and Wisconsin. Here it flows through a wide valley that was carved into the midcontinental bed of limestone as glaciers advanced and melted away over the region for millions of years. Marshy areas and wetlands fill the valley, interspersed with sandy islands. Picturesque limestone bluffs dominate the landscape. The Cannon River enters the Mississippi from the west approximately forty miles below St. Paul. Almost opposite the Cannon on the east side of the Mississippi is the mouth of the Trimbelle River, a smaller stream that rises in Wisconsin. The high blufftops that overlook the Cannon and Trimbelle deltas, including eastern Goodhue and western Pierce counties, define the area archaeologists call the Red Wing Locality. Just above the mouth of the Cannon is Prairie Island, a long expanse of sandy fields and low-lying woods that is separated from the western bank by a narrow stream. About four miles below the end of Prairie Island the main channel of the Mississippi swings eastward around a tall bluff that rises nearly in the middle of the valley. Its distinctive shape has earned it the name of Barn Bluff, and at its foot is the town of Red Wing. Some five miles below this point is the head of a broad body of water known as Lake Pepin, a widening of the Mississippi more than twenty miles long.

Geography and Environmental Conditions Contents Introduction Geography and Environmental Conditions Chronological Considerations Initial Human Occupation Widespread Settlement Terminal Paleoindian Occupations ... References Cited The southeastern United States as defined in this study encompasses the modern political units of Alabama, Arkansas, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. This region, while demarcated by modern political and resource management considerations, closely corresponds to various definitions of a southeastern Native American culture area advanced by anthropologists over the past century. That is, the area contains a number of related societies whose cultural similarities are believed due, in part, to fundamental characteristics of environment and geography, and to a shared history. The Southeast retains such an identity to this day, although precise definitions of what constitutes its boundaries vary somewhat from person to person (see Smith 1986 for a map showing various scholarly definitions of the Native American southeastern cultural area, none of which, however, vary appreciably from one another).
