SUMMARY:Conservancy Day: Mammoths to Muskets: 13\,000+ Years of Human History Around Pheasant Branch Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:Access the recording of this Conservancy Day Program: YouTube channel  or  FaceBook link\nThis presentation will focus on human history that has occurred and archaeology that has been discovered around the Conservancy and greater Madison area. The presenter\, Ryan L. Howell\, will summarize the ancient Native American history in this area dating back beyond the last Ice Age\, the historical presence of the Ho-Chunk from ancient to modern times\, and the initially early arrival of Europeans during the Fur Trade era of the 1600-1800’s. Specific archaeological sites that represent these periods located around and nearby Pheasant Branch Conservancy will be discussed and relevant archaeological artifacts typical of those sites will be shown.    \nSpeaker Biography:    \nRyan J.
