SUMMARY:Illinois Archaeology: The Deep Roots of the Prairie State\, A Traveling Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:History in Illinois didn’t begin when the first Europeans arrived 350 years ago. Euro-American communities have existed here for less than three percent of all the time people have lived in Illinois. Illinois Archaeology: The Deep Roots of the Prairie State is a quick look at where and how people have lived in Illinois for the last 12\,500 years. It explores how things like conflict\, climate change\, and new technology altered the ways people lived. It does this by examining the archaeological evidence people left behind. \nPresented by Prairie Research Institute\, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
