The three narratives of volume II are designed to give the reader the feeling of being a silent partner to the day to day activities of the period. Both men & women were centered in three separate endeavors, the acquisition of food, shelter, and personal safety of themselves and their families. The lives of Paleo, Woodland Archaic, and Late Woodland people were similar and yet different from each of the other two phases. The similarities of hunting were uniform across the three, shelter was a constant search, and safety was also a uniform issue. It is thru the actions that lend the technology to the task that was the defining factor in all three societies. As humans progress, they learn new skills and technologies to match the environment in each situation. Old ideas are replaced or modified, new technologies are refined and sometimes reinvented. A new perspective into what it meant to be "human" may be seen in the mortuary art & the means people dealt with their dead.

The "First men in the Ohio" is a new idea in combining both technical information with an interesting presentation. I have brought a new focus to otherwise highly detailed commentary, and hopefully made it an interesting read for the accomplished student of history, and the new collector / researcher of related facts. In this first of two Volumes you will get acquainted with the Ohio River valley, which is the focus of my effort. It is within this river system that the most important Native American societies were founded and grew into a vast Woodland Empire. The connected river systems were just a critical part of their world as they are today. Goods and materials were moved throughout the Mid West United States on a regular basis. Flint from Flint Ridge Ohio and other sources of workable cherts were traded to most of North America. Cargoes of shells, copper, minerals, and native hard woods were just a few of the raw and finished materials that joined the list of trade goods that moved along the water ways to the farthest corners of this realm. The first men that came thru this region were "hunter-gatherers", they moved with the herds of Bison, caribou, elk, and the occasional Mammoths that were grazing along the tundra style landscape, beside the retreating glaciers. Their stone tools and camp hearths are the only record of their passing. As times and landscape changed, these hunters began to settle into a more defined life style that allowed the discipline of civilization and communities to grow. It is from these small steps that the great societies of the "Adena", and "Hopewell" were born. Mystics, artisans, agricultural developement, and leadership walked with these people they were developing into a series of densely populated centers like "Angel Mounds, Fort Ancient, Fort Hill,and Chakoia", all these sites became centers of art, & industry, and their form of political power. The Mid West became the cross roads of this empire, and this is part of their story.
