The Catskill Indians: Native People of Greene County
Join ethnoecologist Justin Wexler on Saturday, November 15th, 2-3:30 pm for a talk exploring the story of the Catskill Indians, from 1,000 years ago to the present.
For centuries before colonization, the Catskill Indians called Greene County their home. By the mid 18th century, secluded valleys near the headwaters of Catskill Creek, Schoharie Creek and the Delaware River became a refuge for families retreating from environmental degradation in the river towns. This presentation will explore the identity of the Catskill Indians and tell their story from 1,000 years ago through today. Presented by ethnoecologist Justin Wexler of Wild Hudson Valley and Greene Land Trust.
