Cloverdale archaeological site


The Cloverdale archaeological site is an archaeological site located near St. Joseph, Missouri. It is situated at the mouth of a small valley that opens into the Missouri River.
It was occupied by Kansas City Hopewell peoples, and later by Mississippian influenced Steed-Kisker peoples.
Because of the many Cahokia style projectile points found at the site, it is believed to have been a trade partner or outpost of the much larger Cahokia polity.
