More About They Were Here: Ice Age Humans in South Carolina
The 2026 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series concludes with They Were Here: Ice Age Humans in South Carolina. Part of the Carolina Stories Series by SCETV, this 30-minute film tells the story of a time when our climate was cooler and the plants and animals were much different than today. A time when great ice sheets covered the northern areas of what later became the United States. A time when early humans were coming to chert quarries in what is now Allendale County, South Carolina. This documentary covers the careful study and analysis of artifacts leading to evidence of a time when people inhabited South Carolina 15,000-20,000 years ago.
The film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM, Wednesday, December 30th, at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway.

More About Horry County Museum
The Horry County Museum was established in 1979 and opened its doors to the public in 1981. The Museum focuses on the history, pre-history, and natural history of Horry County, S.C., and educates the public about these subjects through exhibits, outreach programs, and events. In 2009, the Museum opened the L. W. Paul Living History Farm. The Farm is a re-creation of life on a one horse family farm between the years of 1900-1955. Visitors to the farm can experience what life was like in a farm community during those years and attend quarterly events at the Farm. In 2014, the Museum moved into the renovated 1905 Burroughs School. The school is on the National Register of Historic Places. The move includes increased exhibits, a freshwater aquarium featured on Animal Planet’s hit reality show “Tanked”, and a 600 seat auditorium that hosts public presentations and programs.
