Heaton Farm has been the IU Archaeology Fieldschool for the past several years. It is located on the West fork of the White River, northwest of Bloomfield, IN. The site is a Late Pre-historic (Oliver Phase) Native American village. These pictures are from the first field season in 1996. The excavations have continued through the 1998 field season

	Excavating two overlapping features, plan view. The outlines have been smeared slightly due to plowing, with the feature in the foreground having an inner and an outer zone.
Section view of the same double feature. It can be seen that the left one was a storage/trash pit (with two large deer bones supported on the pillars), and the right one a fire pit.
	An overview of one of the excavation squares, showing where different features had been dug out, people recording in their notebooks, and sieving the matrix.
Excavating a wall feature, which will become one side of an excavated dwelling feature.
