Digging Yields
No Artifacts
Lebanon. Oct. 28 Two Wil
lamette university professors
and 19 students from the phys
ical science department digging
deep into mounds near Roaring
river were unable Tuesday to
find more than the original
seven artifacts found there pre
viously. The mounds turned out to be
only natural earth formations
caused by uprooted trees. Dr.
Jon A. Rademaker, Willam
ette sociologist and anthropol
ogist, and Dr. W. Herman Clark,
head of the school's physical
science department, directed the
excavations. I
Dr. Rademaker explained that
the stone artifacts found last
week may have been brought to
this section by an Indian tribe
from another area. Both Dr.
Rademaker and Professor Clark'
retain their original opinion that
the artifacts were implements
used by a witch doctor or re
ligious leader in performance of
ceremonial rites, rather than
stone tools used by tribe mem
bers for hunting and fighting.
The rock weapons are too
large for warfare, Clark noted,
and too blunt for hunting. They
are made of sandstone and a
shale type of rock, known to ex
ist in this area.
The explanation of their exist
ance remains a mystery, since
they were deeply imbedded in

They showed no sign of usage or
wear.
