Discover the Nipmuc Lithic Trail
Native Americans in the Nipmuc Territory in southern Worcester County and northeast Connecticut left tangible artifacts, called lithic structures, and some can be found today in our fields and woods. Examples are cairns, chambers, anthropomorphic stone art and weirs. Local historian and expert Joseph Iamartino will present evidence, photographic and from written history, of the purpose of these historic structures. Enthusiasts are working diligently to document the remaining structures. Hear about recent exciting finds that expand the wonderful story of Nipmuc culture.
The talk will be given on October 14 at 11 a.m. and also on October 21, at 11 a.m. It will last about one hour.
The lecture is free; to register, go to samuelslaterexperience.org. Tours of the museum will be available for the normal ticket price. Samuel Slater Experience is at 31 Ray Street, Webster.
