Description:
<p>The Majorville is a large cairn located in the centre of a medicine wheel, situated south of Bassano, Alberta, on the banks of the Bow River. Stratigraphic excavation indicates initial construction in Oxbow times, with additional accretions ending in the Historic Period. Cultural continuity in ritual practice in the Plains over a period of 5,000 years is thus established. <br><br>Published in English.</p>
