Ruby site

Ruby site

The Ruby site is a Native American site located in Wyoming. It is located on a dry tributary of the Powder River. The Ruby site is a corral that was used to herd bison. The bison were forced to stampede by the hunters and then ran into the enclosure which was in a low lying area. This made it impossible for the bison to stop in time, thus proving to be a very effective method of capture. The people that used the Ruby site were experts at handling stampeding animals.
