Stairs in Fremont Indian State Park, Utah
The site was discovered during construction of Interstate 70, and thousands of artifacts have been excavated from the ancient village and put on permanent display at the museum there. The museum offers hiking trails and picnic areas.
The Fremont Indians were agriculturalists who lived from about 400 to 1300 AD in north and central Utah and adjacent parts of Colorado, Idaho and Nevada. The Fremont are thought to have come from hunter-gatherers who previously lived in this location and were influenced by the Ancient Pueblo Peoples who introduced corn and pottery, making year-round settlements possible.
We visited this park on Saturday, if you ever get a chance to tour this park, you will be amazed at the artifacts and ancient Fremont Peoples living conditions. There is even a home and storage place that you can climb into to see how they lived.
