ZOOM PRESENTATION

10,000 YEARS AGO IN SOUTHEAST ALASKA

Terry Fifield, retired Archaeologist (and PHS president), will present a history and overview of the Shuká Káa Cave Project which took place on Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaska Terry was the Forest Service Archaeologist and Tribal Liaison attached to the project from 1996 to 2008 and is co-author of the recent published  report. Shuká Káa Cave is located in karstlands within Southeast Alaska's temperate rainforest. The cave and nearby terraces contain a paleontological and archaeological record spanning more than 40,000 years including some of the earliest evidence of human occupation of the region. Terry will tell the story of this transformational research project set amongst the cultural landscape and Alaska Native villages of the southern Alexander Archipelago.

A SOLDIER'S MOTHER TELLS HER STORY

presented by Sharon Wood 

sponsored by Pease Public Library

​​

Speaking as Betsey Phelps, the mother of a Union soldier from Amherst, New Hampshire who died heroically at the Battle of Gettysburg, Ms. Wood offers an informative and sensitive reflection on that sacrifice from a mother's perspective. Wood blends the Phelps boy's story with those of other men who left their New Hampshire homes to fight for the Union cause and of the families who supported them on the home front.
