Short description: Zebulon Pike Monument at Pawnee Indian Village in Republic County. The site of an 1820s and 1830s Kitkahahki (Republican) Pawnee village was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971. Near the end of the 19th century, local residents linked the site to Zebulon Pike's 1806 visit through historical document. Later, however, archaeologists found Pike had instead stopped at a village farther north in Nebraska.
