FLORENCE-The Florence Indian Mound Museum is hosting a series of children’s programs where students can explore the early history of the Shoals through hands-on learning exercises. The programs will cover a wide range of topics within Native American history and culture and are aimed at an elementary level age group. Each program will have a creative component with hands-on learning, and all events are free.
Our program on Archaeology will take place Saturday, June 25th at 10 am. The program will focus on archaeology and how it helps us understand the past. Students will learn what archaeology is, why it is used, and how it can be done responsibly. Students will participate in a hands-on activity where they will learn the basics of archaeology.
