	Missouri River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The headwaters of the Missouri are in the Rocky Mountains of southwestern Montana, near the continental divide.
		During the 18th century, the river was used by fur traders under the flags of Spain and France.
		The entire Missouri River watershed was acquired from the French by the United States in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase and explored by the Lewis and Clark Expedition, which successfully used the river in exploring for a route to the Pacific Ocean.

		West of the river, the landscape is entirely erosional, broken near the river, but less so with distance from the river.
		I believe it origenates from the immence quantities of sand which is driven by the wind from the sandbars of the river in such clouds that you are unable to discover the opposite bank of the river in many instances.
		When Lewis and Clark were traveling up the river in 1805, the floodplain sandbars were being blown by the strong spring winds, which built extensive dunes in places along the east side of the river.

	1421 - Evidence - Stone buildings or stone artefacts found in the wake of the Chinese fleet
		The Cannonball River got its name from a large number of round sandstone rocks at the mouth of the river where it debouches into the Missouri River them.
		The Cannonball is far too shallow to have been traversed by anything other than a canoe or fleet of canoes.
		But some of the "Cannonballs" found at the mouth (in the 1930s and 1940s) were not only much larger, but made of different and much harder material than the sandstone cannonballs – possible Chinese sail counterweights.
