Brief DescriptionNew Exhibit
TypeAttraction
CategoryLitchfield Hills Connecticut Museum
DescriptionIndian Peoples traded corn, animal skins, stone tools, pots and wampum beads for centuries before contact with Europeans. Trade networks expanded in the 1600s to include European ships, colonial settlements, and trading posts. As European colonialism spread throughout North America after 1700 and the size of Native communities shrank dramatically, indigenous peoples sought to adapt their traditional economies to the new realities.

Articles once made for personal use quickly became valuable commodities to be sold or traded for manufactured goods. The introduction of new materials stimulated the creativity of Native American craftsmanship and allowed them to develop and extend their unique cultural traditions into the future.
On exhibit in the George A.G. Darlow Exhibit Hall January 15, 2008 through December 31, 2008.
