Indigenous artifacts found in Kitchener during road construction

Quote:Indigenous artifacts and evidence of a longhouse and First Nations village have been found at a location in south Kitchener where road construction is set to start on Fischer-Hallman Road this spring.
The Region of Waterloo has ordered what's called a stage 4 archeological assessment after 965 items were found in an area of Fischer-Hallman Road between Bleams Road and Strasburg Creek.
The latest stage, which will be led by an environmental company and a First Nations field liaison will "involve hand excavation to identify, document and salvage all archeological artifacts."
A stage four archeological assessment is estimated to take about six to seven months, according to a regional report, and cost $1.6 million.
