The Fabry Creek (Boss Tavern) site is a multi-component archaeological site on a sandy glacial ridge within a broader complex of sites extending from the Fabry Creek drainage east of WIS 57 west to the Green Bay shoreline. It produced artifacts from three prehistoric occupations: Paleoindian, North Bay Middle Woodland, and Mero Complex Oneota. About 11,000 years ago, when Paleoindians camped there overlooking the shores of Glacial Lake Algonquin, the site appears to have been a small hunting camp on the old lakeshore. Organic materials from these deposits have been radiocarbon dated to about 9000 B.C. Artifacts from this occupation include stone spearpoints, knives, hidescrapers, and gravers used to carve bone, as well as bone tools used in butchering animals and making clothing and shelters from animal skins. Middle Woodland groups likely used the site as a small hunting camp about A.D. 100, leaving side-notched projectile points, thick-walled grit-tempered pottery, bifaces and knives made from chert, and chert scrapers. Excavations also found evidence of occupation by people of the Mero Complex Oneota tradition, who probably occupied the site after A.D. 1100 and left decorated shell-tempered pottery, bone and native copper tools, and triangular arrow points. Local residents knew the site as early as the 1800s, it was officially recorded by the Wisconsin Historical Society in 1906, and WIS 57 archaeologists worked there from 1999 through 2008.
