AIA Lecture: Early Humans in the Americas

Time: 12:00 pm til 1:00 pm

Location: UNF Archaeology Lab

Description: The Archaeological Institute of America--Jacksonville Society will meet at noon on Jan. 23, 2016 in Building 51 at the University of North Florida to find possible answers to one of the most controversial subjects in American archaeology. National Archaeological Institute of America lecturer Dr. Steven Holen, an archaeologist and geoarchaeologist, and his wife Dr. Kathleen Holen, will discuss the controversy surrounding the topic of the first humans in the Americas and offer new evidence from his research that suggests that they arrived earlier than previously thought. His work with museums and as State Archaeologist and Tribal Liaison with the Natural Resources Conservation Service in South Dakota has formed the foundation for his theories and publications. His lecture is titled "Early Humans in the Americas: When Did They Arrive and Where Did They Come From?" The lecture is free and open to the public. Complimentary refreshments will be served afterwards in the Archaeology Lab. On Saturday, parking at UNF is free and faculty/staff/vendor spaces are open to everyone.
