Nestled in a corrugated plastic bed and floating on two rafts was a 3,000-year-old canoe – the oldest canoe to be discovered in the entire Great Lakes region by 1,000 years.
Native Americans at the time were hunter-gatherers and lived a nomadic lifestyle, traveling in groups of 50 to 60 people, Rosebrough said.
It's believed that communities would have deliberately sunk their canoes in shallow water just offshore in the fall to preserve them throughout the winter, returning to them in spring. But Skibo thinks the depth at which both canoes were found could indicate periods of drought and flooding. "We have not done a systematic search of this area. Can you imagine if we actually do that, what we're going to find?" she said.For the Ho-Chunk, the canoe is a physical reminder of their rich history and culture.His friend told him to touch it and realize:"There's part of you in this canoe."
