The land, owned by Gottlieb Izaak, & former state legislator and Theodore Shiltz, both of Dodge, N.-D., is located on a low range of hills overlooking Spanish and Goodland creeks, branch- ing off from the Knife river. Large fragments of the smoky color- ed flint may still be picked up on the surface of the land about six miles north of Dodge, according to Reid. “It is almost certain that the In- dians named the nearby water the walle River because they dug the flint for their knives from this place” he said. “The river was khown by that name long before the white people came to this section.” Reid reported the Indians had dug about 400 “little pits” in this are some of which are partially filled-in and many of them still sbout four teet deep. “This quarry apparently was used by all tribes which obtained the frag- ments and then carried the raw flinu back to their vilages for use in manu- facturing arrow points, hile scrappers, drills, knives and spear points, “We know that this flint was used over a wide territory because arrow- points made of it have been found in many places”, Reid asserted. “These flints have been recognized and traced back to the Knife River quarry.” x Negotiations aré now under way to establish the quarry as a part of the state park system over which Reid has supervision.
