Tuesday, March 9, 2027
6:00pm · 8:00pm
This will be a two-hour, three-part series. Using materials from Hitchcock Nature Center, participants will build their own atlatl kit including the atlatl itself as well as darts. The atlatl is an ancient tool used by cultures as diverse as the aboriginal people of Australia and the Aztec Empire of Mexico. It has been used as a hunting tool as well as a weapon of war. We will use the skills developed in this class to illustrate how incredibly dependent on the landscape our ancestors were. By understanding the different strengths and weaknesses of the materials we are working with and understanding the appropriate times to harvest materials, we can glean a bit of intelligence regarding what’s going on in the rest of the living world. Our early ancestors and traditional cultures around the world were and are necessarily intimately connected to the landscape around them, which provided them with everything necessary to survive. By understanding the material culture of these people, we can hopefully begin to see how integrated we truly are with the natural world.
