The Indigenous Old World — An Exploration of Pre-Colombian North America (Zoom Program)
August 21 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Explore the worlds of the Indigenous peoples of North America before European colonization. North America was a place filled with cities, towns, and villages. Across the continent, Indigenous peoples produced architecture and monumental construction. The ancient and medieval communities of North America were fed by agriculture. Moreover, Indigenous Americans actively managed their environment and participated in long distance exchange networks.
