Indigenous Bluffton: 40,000 Years of History

With Katie Seeber

 

Native people have been making their home here in the Lowcountry for tens of thousands of years. Some of the most important moments in North American Indigenous history were here along the coast and sea islands, from the invention of pottery and villages to the first full-scale war with Europeans. This talk will discuss who lived here before us and introduce their important stories in honor of Indigenous Peoples Day. About Katie: Dr. Katherine Seeber is an archaeologist and historian who specializes in doing archaeology with and for communities who need it. She uses archaeology as a tool for social change and has spent the last 18 years working throughout the South on projects spanning thousands of years, miles, and peoples.
