Bundick Lake Archeological Dig

The marker has found a home at the Fannin Ranch hunting lodge.

Louise S. O'Connor and Kai Buckert were recently awarded a marker from the Texas Historical Commission for archeological preservation.  The Museum of the Coastal Bend awarded the marker for allowing archeologists to dig at Bundick Lake, which is part of the Duke Ranch, located in Goliad and Refugio Counties.  A vast number of points have been found at Bundick over the years, especially after a heavy rain.  The really exciting part about this dig was that most of the artifacts that were found date between 8000 and 10,000 years old, with some dating back to 12,000 years old.  The found artifacts are on display at the Museum of the Coastal Bend in Victoria.
