Abstract

Humans have lived on the shores of Waaksikhomik (Lake Mendota) for thousands of years. In fact, the University of Wisconsin-Madison resides on ancestral Ho-Chunk Nation land. Eleven architectural earthwork mound sites dating back 2,500 years and at least 25 human habitation sites dating back 12,000 years are part of the campus landscape.
