refnum=66000424The Utz Site is a Native American archeological site in
Saline County, Missouri , located on bluffs overlooking theMissouri River . The site was occupied by theMissouri tribe from c. 1400 AD to the late 1700s AD, and was probably the principal village area occupied by the Missouri Indians at the time of their first contact with Europeans. Utz was noted by French explorers, beginning withPere Marquette , whose 1673 map placed "Messourit" Indians here.
