Event Overview

Join us at the Grand River Conservation Campus to learn more about Northern Ohio archaeology! Dr. Brian Redmond, curator emeritus from Cleveland Museum of Natural History, will discuss the archaeology of the Whittlesey and Sandusky traditions, the last indigenous tribal groups in northern Ohio, then delve into their curious disappearance using historical, linguistic and archaeological evidence for possible migrations to other areas of the Great Lakes and Midwest.

This event is open to adults. No RSVP is required.
