Brief Tribal Culture-History on the Jackpot Junction website

Lower Sioux Agency reconstruction and interpretive center. This is in an archive, not on the MHS new site, should copy it maybe.

Fort Ridgeley -- another MHS archive

Jeffers Petroglyphs Yet another MHS archival site. Add to this the UM anthro's interpretation and photos of the Jeffers petroglyphs

Get pix from Tom of the school and ask the kids for rezphotos. The one on the casino school page is lousy just the stuff in the case in the front room.

CREDITS:I did the little map. Info comes mostly from American Indian Reservations and Trust Areas, U.S. Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce, 1996. Veronica Velarde Tiller compiled this up to date information from tribal council sources for all tribes; same super-valuable info as she has in her book, advertised on her website. Other sources: Encyclopedia articles on Minnesota Ojibwes, Minnesota Indians publication of the league of Women voters, and tribal periodicals. The casino logo comes from a guidebook to Minnesota Indian casinos, sold by the Minnesota Gaming Association.
