VIRTUAL: The Indigenous Old World — An Exploration of Pre-Colombian North America

The BFL is partnering with the Tewksbury Public Library for this exploration of Pre-Colombian North America. Christoph Strobel, Department Chair and Professor of History at UMASS Lowell, will bring us into the Indigenous Old World. 

Before European colonization, North America was filled with cities, towns, and villages. Across the continent, Indigenous peoples produced architecture and monumental construction. The ancient and medieval communities of North America were fed by agriculture. Moreover, Indigenous Americans actively managed their environment and participated in long distance exchange networks. 

Christoph Strobel is the author of War and Colonization in the Early American Northeast; Native Americans of New England; and The Global Atlantic: 1400 to 1900. In addition, he has published many other books and academic papers.
