Kentuckians Before Boone

From archeological evidence and from early historical documents we have information about the daily lives of the earliest Kentuckians. The "Kentuckians Before Boone" mural is a depiction of a Fort Ancient winter camp in the late 1500s (about 150 years before Daniel Boone or Simon Kenton were born). The Fort Ancient culture lasted about 700 years. A glass case below the mural displays several artifacts of daily life, including pottery, shell gorgets, rawhide, tobacco, corn, and squash.
