Library Online Calendar | Native American Oral Traditions & Archaeology

Description

Join Horry County Museum Curator Abby Geedy to learn about the ways that people and places influenced one another at the Mulberry site in Kershaw County.

The Mulberry Site (38KE12) is a multi-mound Mississippian Era Native American town on the Wateree River. The people who lived there were likely ancestrally related to the peoples of the Catawba Indian Nation, Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, and Creek (Muscogee) Nation.

Using documented oral traditions and the collaboration of current members of these three Nations, we can interpret the meaning behind the natural and built landscape of the Mulberry site and the artifacts commonly found there.

Registration is requested for this program.
