Curator: Dr Małgorzata Winiarska-Kabacińska
The exhibition "Hunters of the prairie" provides some insights into the lives of prehistoric hunters. It showcases unique North American stone blades held in the collection of the Archaeological Museum in Poznań. These artefacts were parts of the equipment of hunters from the Archaic period (10 000 to 3 000 years ago), who lived on the Great Plains of North America hunting mainly bisons and the peoples from the Woodland period (3 000 to 1 000 years ago) who hunted also other animal species such as deer, moose and bear.
