Meadowcroft Re-Opens to the Public

No Comments

Meadowcroft Rockshelter archaeological site has revealed the earliest evidence of people in North America, dating back 16,000 years.

The Rockshelter, named a National Historic Landmark in 2005, has provided archaeologists with a rare glimpse into the lives of the first people to arrive in the New World.

With recent renovations to the Rockshelter’s enclosure, visitors can see evidence of tools and campfires made by these first Americans thousands of years ago.
