Artifacts include material documenting 14,000 years of habitation in the Texas Panhandle. From Clovis and Folsom Big-Game hunters following large, extinct mammoth and bison; through later foragers exploiting a wide variety of foods; to Southern Plains Villagers living in semi-permanent houses, hunting bison, farming corn, beans, and squash, and mining and trading Alibates Flint for making stone artifacts; these collections document the activities and behaviors of Indians living in the region.
