Western Wisconsin Archaeology

What was life like in Wisconsin at the end of the Ice Age? How did it change over the next 13,000 years until the arrival of the settlers? From pursuing mastodons to hunting deer and growing corn, people have adapted to the available environment and resources. Come learn about Western Wisconsin's past, see some artifacts from the region, and explore how lifeways changed over time.
