Landscapes and Lifeways:
The Carolina Piedmont 600 Years Ago and Today
The new Landscapes and Lifeways exhibit will compare our contemporary Piedmont landscape with the Piedmont of 600 years ago. Expand your understanding of how the natural resources of the Carolina Piedmont have sustained people and wildlife over time, and how people have changed the landscape significantly over the past 600 years.
Two new dioramas show Carolina Piedmont landscapes and wildlife in the 1400's, before European exploration and settlement. View animals that once lived in the Piedmont (bison, cougar, elk and wolves) alongside species seen here today (deer, vultures, quail and heron). Discover how native peoples relied on the natural resources of the Carolina Piedmont - the river, trees, land, plants and wildlife - for their survival, and how they changed the landscape to support their ways of life.
Sponsored in part by Kathy & Larry Wilson, Rock Hill Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Williams & Fudge, Inc., Founders Federal Credit Union, Becca & Harry Dalton and Ell Close.
