- Summary:
- Travel along on an expedition to discover the archaeology of the Fur Trade, a period of cultural and economic exchange between Native Americans and European-Americans. In the period 1600 to 1750, European-American traders exchanged manufactured goods with Native people for valuable furs. From Quebec to the Great Lakes, the archaeology of the forts and settlements of the frontier record the story of European expansion into the old Northwest Territory. This episode of our show reveals the hidden history of the Fur Trade on America's colonial frontier.
