'Secrets of the Ouachita' to be shown in Jonesville
Filmmaker Eric Glatzer will present the documentary video "Secret of the Ouachita" at Jonesville Town Hall at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 13.
"Secret of the Ouachita" focuses on the prehistoric mound building civilization that flourished along the Ouachita and Mississippi Rivers. According to Glatzer, "This is not the story of the North American Indians you learned in high school."
The video features aerial photography that allows viewers to see how the mound sites were part of a large system of interconnecting bayous and streams that served as highways for the Indians' wooden dugout canoes.
Archaeologists interviewed for the film include Joe Saunders, former Regional Archaeologist, University of Louisiana at Monroe; Jon Gibson, Archaeologist Emeritus, University of Louisiana at Lafayette; Diana Greenlee, Station Archaeologist at Poverty Point; and Aubre "Butch" Lee, Earth Search, Inc., as well as local historian Bill Atkins.For the full story, subscribe to the The Concordia Sentinel's NEW E-Edition! |
