Near Mariemont, Ohio, on a bluff above the Little Miami River, the Madisonville site was a prehistoric settlement occupied for a long period and used most heavily in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Covering about five acres, it is especially significant as the type site for the Madisonville phase of Fort Ancient pottery and as the most extensively excavated Fort Ancient site of its era. Research has reshaped understanding of the village’s layout and revealed both local lifeways and far-reaching exchange networks, including maize farming, hunting, possible indirect access to European goods, and connections stretching from the St. Lawrence region to Ontario and western New York.
