Wanuskewin Heritage Park (Saskatchewan) Wanuskewin represents the ancient story of man living in harmony with nature. For thousands of years, hunter-gatherers roamed this river valley in Central Saskatchewan. The area contains 19 prehistoric archaeological sites representing some 250 generations of the Northern Plains Indians. From a large medicine wheel, to the tipi rings and stone cairns which described the camps and buffalo runs, the Wanuskewin site is one of the largest research projects in the country.
