History
The Shultz-Funk Site in Manor Township, Pennsylvania, is a prehistoric archaeological site with two related areas, the Shultz and Funk components, that preserve important evidence of Native American settlement in the lower Susquehanna Valley before European colonization. Excavations identified the Shultz component as a large, stockaded Susquehannock-period village and the Funk component as the remains of three distinct Shenks Ferry villages. Together, they document successive occupations from about 1500 to 1600, with Funk dating to roughly 1500–1550 and Shultz to about 1550–1600. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
