Wanuskewin Heritage Park Authority
Wanuskewin Heritage Park hugs the west bank of the South Saskatchewan River, just five kilometres north of Saskatoon. Within its 760 acres there are 19 pre-contact sites that represent the active society of Northern Plains Peoples. Here you will find summer and winter camp sites, bison kill sites, tipi rings, an arrangement of boulders called a medicine wheel, and artifacts such as pottery fragments, plant seeds, projectile points, egg shells and animal bones, all within a compact area. Wanuskewin's mission is to operate, on a sustainable basis, a world-recognized Heritage Park under the leadership and guidance of First Nations people that contributes to increasing public awareness, understanding and appreciation of the cultural legacy of the Northern Plains First Nations people. It works cooperatively in an imaginative and culturally sensitive manner, while serving as a major tourist attraction, human resource development agency and a leading scientific, cultural and educational authority.
