University of Michigan Caddo Mounds State Historical Site Essay

Requirement :

Choose a film or video <50 min. that delves into a topic (or region) we haven’t covered in detail. Do not choose a film dealing with the earliest settlement/peopling of North America. Do choose a film that deals with pre-contact history focusing on the Holocene. Regions for which we would like to have films dealing with some portion of Holocene settlement (roughly 10,000-500 cal BP) include: Subarctic, Great Lakes, Canada, and the Southeast (TX, LA, MI, AL). Remember we are focusing on the pre-contact history of Native Americans and First Nations, not historic archaeology.
