ABSTRACT
Gustaf Nordenskiold, a Swedish gentleman and archaeologist, camped and worked on Wetherill Mesa in Mesa Verde National Park from July to September in 1891. During the summer of 1970 a salvage crew working on Wetherill Mesa recovered the remains of Nordenskiold's third campsite. Utilizing the known date of occupancy for the site, the validity of historical dating techniques based on artifactual analysis was tested.
