From JMRL, a good follow-up to this past weekend’s Columbus Day events:
Archeology Lecture at Greene County Library “The Embrace of the High Hills: The History of Native Americans in Greene County.” a lecture by Carole Nash.
October 25, 2007, 7:00 pm
The First People of Greene County had been here over 400 generations when the Virginia Company sent ships sailing up the James River. The discovery of a 12,000 year-old Native American site in Greene County leads us to re-think what is known of Native cultures of the region. Ms Nash teaches at James Madison University and is currently President of the Middle Atlantic Archaeological Conference.
