State Archeologist Spencer Pelton shows off some recently unearthed Native American trade beads, which used to decorate clothing. The beads were uncovered at the Willow Creek Site in Albany County.
An archeological dig site in Albany County has turned up a treasure trove of old artifacts after a dig was conducted last week.
The Willow Creek site outside of Tie Siding has been a known archeological hotspot since University of Wyoming archeologist William Malloy excavated the area decades ago.
The Willow Creek site sits along a travel corridor used by those on the Overland Trail, and before that the Cherokee Trail. The travel corridor was likely well-traveled by humans and animals for hundreds of years before Westerners arrived, according to State Archeologist Spencer Pelton, who was on-site last week.
