Abstract
The Middle Woodland period of the western basin of Lake Erie is the topic of this paper and why the people living there did not participate in the Hopewell Interaction Sphere. '[There] also exists a classic Hopewellian occupation that overlaps the area occupied by the Western Basin Middle Woodland on its eastern periphery. The available evidence indicates that these two culturally distinct groups did not interact to any substantial degree.' (page 55). These are the Esch and Heckelman sites and they are briefly described. Only the data pertaining to Hopewell were indexed for OCM (Outline of Cultural Materials) subjects.
