W.V. Indian cave stands in highway's path

[Wayne Harrison]

Down a rural back road a few miles from Point Pleasant, archaeologists keep close watch over a rock cave shelter 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The cave is enclosed in a barbwire fence pinned with "No Trespassing" and "No Hunting" signs.

This is to ensure no one wanders onto the site and disturbs what may be inside the cave - artifacts and remnants of American Indian life from 1,000-plus years ago.

It happens that this cave is in the path of the new U.S. 35 project.
