Hundreds of years ago, the forests of Clarington were thick, wild and [full of game. The many creeks and the Ganaraska River were well stocked with fish. Combined together, the forests and waterways made this area one of the most desirable hunting hunting grounds of the Mississauga, Ojibwa and Iroquois. For years, residents of Clarington have been discovering the remnants of the activities of these bands throughout our area. In some cases, rare artifacts speak to a time that pre-dates the Mississauga, Ojibwa and Iroquois hunters. Artifacts have been found throughout Clarington which indicate that tribes inhabited this area in prehistoric times. Tribes known only as the Laurentian and Princess Point Cultures left behind pottery, flint, stone tools, jewelry, and clay pipes. Dr. John Steckley, anthropologist and author of Aboriginal Peoples will share his extensive knowledge and lead an exciting and entertaining entertaining discussion on the aboriginal heritage of the area. Legends for all ages will explore the subtle imprint of Native cultures cultures on our land.
