SUMMARY:Shape by the Land
DESCRIPTION:One of the most common questions heard by public archaeologists
  and docents at Ohio’s Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks is simple: “Why h
 ere?” Often dismissed as a “fly-over state\,” Ohio is anything but un
 remarkable. Its landscape and history are deep\, complex\, and shaped by th
 ousands of years of human connection to place. In this presentation\, Sarah
  Hinkelman\, Ohio archaeologist and Site Superintendent of the Newark Earth
 works and Flint Ridge\, explores “Why Ohio?” by examining how geology a
 nd landscape influenced human life—and how people\, in turn\, shaped the 
 land. From foothills to floodplains\, flint outcrops to prairies\, rivers t
 o lakes\, Ohio has been an extraordinary place to live for over 14\,000 yea
 rs.The event is free and open to the public. Doors open at 6:00 with the pr
 ogram to follow at 6:30. For more information\, visit www.ashlandhistory.or
