The Michipicoten First Nation Artefact Story – The Challenges of Coming Home

A presentation on the challenges, collaborations and outcomes of our artefacts “coming home”. In September 2015, Michipicoten First Nation held a sunrise ceremony and feast to honour the final journey of 40 boxes of archaeological artefacts that found their way home to the Wawa area. These pre-historic and historic objects represent a fascinating story full of discovery and challenge which continues today.

Presenters: Wendy Peterson, Michipicoten First Nation; Johanna Rowe, Heritage Professional
