The First 12,000 Years of Abenaki History

Past event
Feb 5, 2019, 6 to 9 PM

Four lectures on following dates: Feb. 5, Mar. 5, May 7, June 4 6:00 p.m.- 9:00 p.m.

In this series we join Abenaki author, filmmaker, activist and scholar Frederick M. Wiseman on a virtual journey through Vermont's marvelous prehistory, from the Early arrivals of Paleo-Indian big-game and marine mammal hunters during the waning of the Ice Age, to the intense environmental adaptations and societal complexities of the Archaic Period, to the arrival of new ideas and technologies from the South and West in the Woodland Period. All of this complex legacy was disrupted and deflected by the arrival of European disease, technology and settlers. Although this series of programs was designed as a learning aid for Vermont Abenakis interested in understanding their heritage, it is open to the public as well.

A four part series, you can purchase tickets to an individual session, or the whole series. http://www.ethanallenhomestead.org/lifelong.html.......No fee for Native Americans.
