The Beginning of History in North America from a Geological Perspective with Jeremy Heidenfelder
Step back 17,000 years and discover how North America’s first peoples survived and thrived at the end of the Ice Age. This free lecture explores the Pre-Paleoindian and Paleoindian periods, when massive glaciers were melting, landscapes were transforming, and humans were adapting to a rapidly changing world. We’ll uncover how shifting climates shaped migration routes, examine the mystery behind the extinction of giant Ice Age animals, and highlight remarkable discoveries such as Clovis points. Join us for a fascinating journey into the deep past—where geology and human history collide to tell the story of North America’s earliest beginnings.
