If you’ve ever wondered how pre-colonial contact Nipmuc Indigenous People lived then this program will be for you!
Within the Framingham History Center’s (FHC) 10,000 piece collection are 600+ Indigenous artifacts ranging from projectile points to game pieces to fishing plummets. Largely connected to the Nipmuc People who call Framingham part of their ancestral homelands, these pieces have incredible cultural significance related to food, social life, and hunting from pre-contact, contact, and today. Through a balance of tribal history and stories as well as archaeological research, representatives of the Nipmuc and Wampanoag People along with an archaeological consultant will share their perspectives on Indigenous foodways using lithics (stone tools) from the FHC. This is the first in a series of programs co-presented by the Framingham History Center, Nipmuc, and Wampanoag People.
This program will be recorded. Please register to receive the recording once it has been edited.
