Cranberry Creek Archeological District, also known as Cranberry Creek Mound Group, is an ancient American Indian burial mound site from circa AD 100–800 near New Miner, Wisconsin, United States.

Humans first inhabited Wisconsin about 12,000 years ago, and the use of burial mounds developed in between 500 BC to 1000 AD during what is referred to as the Woodland period. The burial mounds during the late Woodland period tended to be built as effigies of birds, bears, and panthers, and examples of these can be found in the Cranberry Creek Archeological District.Шаблон:R As with other burial mounds on state property, the mounds in this region are protected against unauthorized disturbance.Шаблон:R Many of the best examples of mounds in this area are on the east side of Cranberry Creek. In addition to effigies, conical, linear, and oval mounds are found. Although archeological studies have been conducted here since 1917, and farming has damaged parts of the northern cluster, the cluster in the southern section is essentially unaltered by modern man.Шаблон:R Cranberry Creek Archeological District encompasses one of the larger mound groups in Wisconsin with over 300 mounds,Шаблон:R and possibly up to 500 mounds.Шаблон:R
