November Exhibit at the Richmond-Miles Museum
November is Native American month and to recognize the indigenous population of Caswell County and the surrounding areas the Richmond-Miles Museum has on display some artifacts that have been donated by David Kirby, Owen Poteat, Earl Smith and others. These artifacts include arrowheads, primitive tools and other information to recognize the people who lived before and alongside the European pioneers in the area. The extensive array of arrowheads and tools come from the Not So Humble Beginnings 1776-1796 collection.
The NC Museum of History is hosting its 26th Annual American Indian Heritage Celebration on November 20th from 11am to 4pm. During this online event there will be videos, presentations and other activities that will discuss North Carolinas recognized tribes as well as their culture and lives.

The Caswell County Historical Association and Richmond-Miles Museum welcome visitors to see this and other exhibits during operating hours which are currently Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1-4 pm.
