Archaeology Works: Mounds & Middens
Time: 9:00 am til 11:00 am
Location: Indian Temple Mound Museum, 139 Miracle Strip PKWY SE, Fort Walton Beach, FL
Description: Why did ancient Floridians build large mound complexes thousands of years ago? What has archaeology taught us about these sites? How come some are still standing and others are gone? Come find out by joining FPAN and Heritage Park and Cultural Center for an urban hiking tour of some ancient Native American mounds in downtown Fort Walton Beach! We will talk about archaeological excavations of these sites and efforts to preserve and protect these non-renewable cultural resources.
Archaeology Works: Mounds and Middens is free and open to the public. Participants will meet at the Lazarus Education Center for a brief presentation inside the Indian Temple Mound Museum located at 139 Miracle Strip Pkwy, Fort Walton Beach at 9:00 a.m. and it will be followed by an urban hiking tour with a total distance of half a mile.
FPAN is co-hosting this event.
