Raid on St. Francis, Indian Village Stockade

The Woodland Indians were not as nomadic as the plains Indians. Their villages were built on much more of a permanent basis. The village was usually surrounded by a stockade fence 14’-18’ high. Styles varied, and some villages would have had “battlements“ or walking platforms, and occasionally watch towers. Also two stockade walls around a village was quite common, some walls were supplemented with dead thorn bushes as an added deterrent to intruders. Entrances were usually narrow gaps in the Stockade fence that could easily be defended, and covered up in emergencies.
WISTOCK-02 and WISTOCK-03 together will replace one normal (WISTOCK-01) stockade section.
