Before introduction of horses, plains Indians hunted for buffalo in a very peculiar way: buffalo jumps – one just needed to direct the buffalo towards the cliff from which the animals jumped. On the bottom there were already Indian women waiting, they butcherered the buffalo, took off and tanned the skins and prepared the meat for transport. Vore Buffalo Jump is possibly the most known of those, because, according to archaeologists, is the best preserved site – over 20 layers of bones and other artifacts 25 feet deep have been uncovered.
