CFC-138 — Walking With the Lenape
Who were the Indians whose paths we walk and drive every day? What was their lifestyle and socio-political organization? Learn about locations of Indian villages that once flourished, literally, in our own backyards! Discover Indian place-names and specific locations of their villages in Mt. Laurel, Marlton, Medford, & throughout the Rancocas & Pennsauken Creeks, and many other locations in Burlington & Camden Counties. The study of our area will begin over 12,000 years ago with the Paleo-Indian Period, and proceed through the Archaic and Woodland Periods to the time of contact with the first European settlers. A great opportunity to learn about our first native New Jerseyians! Actual Indian stone artifacts will be shown in class.
