I checked out OAIster. I went to the South Dakota section and found numerous topics I was interested in. I checked out the article Vegetative Characteristics of Swift Fox Denning and Foraging Sites in Southwestern South Dakota by Daniel W. Uresk, Kieth E. Severson and Jody Javersak. Very interesting article. I then checked out an early etching of Fort Pierre with a Native American settlement.
Great, BinchyFan! Now you know where your serious scholars can find more information. Thanks for your comments!
