Have you ever wondered who the first people to colonize Iowa were, or why they left so few traces behind? Ever wondered what their lives were like? Then we have the program for you! On June 25th, 2022 Dr. Julie Morrow (PhD) will be at the Heritage Museum to give a once in a lifetime talk about early Paleo people in Iowa! Dr. Morrow will be giving a presentation from 1 to 3 PM. Please use the Columbia Street entrance (with the blue awning). This presentation will cover the most mysterious and fascinating journey ever taken in the history of humankind. About 14,000 years ago an Ice age hunting culture and their canine companions began exploring the Icy Corridor and mountains of western North America. By 12,900 their descendants had made it to the tip of South America. Rare campsites and a few dozen mammoth kills containing some stone and bone tools are all that remains to scientifically reconstruct their lifeway. This is the story of the origins and lifeways of the Clovis people who successfully colonized the New World. Dr. Morrow is an acclaimed archeologist and expert on Clovis and Paleo Indigenous peoples. She has worked extensively at sites in Iowa, as well as across the country, and is now an adjunct professor for the Arkansas Archeological Survey and The University of Arkansas System.This event is free, and open to the public! Seating is limited, and is on a “first come, first served” basis. Please RSVP @ 319.752.7449 and ask for Julie.
