The collection worked chronologically from the Ice Age; to the American Indians who settled in Ohio; to the arrival of the Europeans, disease, and war; and then to the discovery and exploration of the Fort Ancient site itself.
The museum was kid-friendly... with the exception of a giant mural of a European getting scalped. Luckily I spotted it ahead of time and distracted accordingly.
"Oh, my goodness! Is that a real tomahawk over there?!"
Sheesh.
One. Big. MESS.
While we are on the subject of adventures...
book recommendation time!!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Greta Eskridge's Adventuring Together. This book persuaded me to get out and explore this summer, even with a little baby. |
