Buresh site
Buresh Archaeological Site (14SR303) is near Caldwell in Sumner County, Kansas, and covers about 9 acres. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 14, 1971 (reference number 71000333).
The site is part of the Bluff Creek complex, defined by archaeologist Tom Witty, and dates to the Middle Ceramic period, possibly related to the Washita focus of Oklahoma. Excavations uncovered four houses: two square, one oval, and one rectangular. The pottery includes rounded jars and bowls tempered with sand or bone. A radiocarbon date around AD 1050 was obtained, but this dating is considered unreliable.
