Dr. Doug Scott is coming to Missoula to present findings of his ballistics analysis of artifacts recovered from the 2011 and 2012 University of Montana Field School! Tom Milter, UM Graduate Student, will set the stage for Doug by providing a short synopsis of the history of the battlefield, our fieldwork there, and other fascinating tidbits to tickle the mind.

  1. As a proud Lakota, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the historical perspective provided by University of Montana graduate student, Thomas Milter, and, the ballistic analysis given by world renowned battlefield archaeologist and forensic firearms expert, Dr. Doug Scott (University of Nebraska) linking the Native American insurgency to both 1876 Battles of the Rosebud and Little Bighorn. It's very interesting data. Kudos to all involved in this project and to the University of Montana for offering this archaeological presentation. Pilamayaye!
