Ancient discoveries on the prairie: The crew found an arrowhead on one of their transects. They were told by a visiting archeologist that you can see that the arrowhead was broken on the top by way of a hit. The stone it was made from had been etched—its white patina features and smooth surfaces tells us that the arrowhead has been sitting for hundreds of years. (Photo by Nika Slade)
