From the Adena to The Golden Age of Exploration and the Settlement of Virginia
I currently volunteer two days a week at the Virginia Marine Science Center and Aquarium, making arrowheads in their Indian village
Virginia's First Peoples: A free Lecture Series for Schools, Scouts and interested Civic Groups
I also teach American Indian crafts such as leather and
rawhide work, flint knapping, tool-making and other skills,
at my home. I claim descent from the Micmac Indians of Nova
Scotia, but I am not enrolled in nor a recognized member of
that tribe. I do not claim my work as Indian-made, but only
representative of American Indian material culture.
Whereas the market is dominated by western and plains Indian cultural materials,
Mobjack Bay Relics offers replicas and unique creations representing eastern
woodland cultures that are at best scarce, and often impossible to find examples of.
