Semester: Spring Semester 2016 ARCHAEOLOGY - ANCIENT AMERICA IN 1491* [Johnson, Archaeologist, B.]

What was this land like, in 1491, before it was 'discovered' by Europeans?

You will be astonished to learn the scope and extent of ancient civilizations in North & South America, but also how probably 80% of these people vanished before they ever saw a European. Learn about cities & civilizations as grand as anything in the Old World. There will be more emphasis on rock art from other cultures, this time around. We hope to surprise you with

some rock art that you may not have seen before, that goes back much farther in time than what we usually see here in North America.
