Archaeologists led by Wichita State University professor Don Blakeslee found iron and lead cannonball fragments at five Walnut River bluff sites in Arkansas City suggesting a 16th 17th century Native American town named Ettanoa with about 20 000 inhabitants. Wichita State students volunteers and tribal leaders attended a public briefing and toured sites.
