Peabody award winning Smithsonian filmmaker Ted Timreck will share documentary footage from two little known discoveries that show the potential of what might be found anywhere in the New England countryside. Ted will also be interviewed as part of the program to explain how the controversial "diffusion" discoveries of the 1970's made by amateurs in local communities evolved into the discovery and recognition of an unknown chapter in Eastern Maritime Native history going back to the Ice Age and how this has led to research extending from our backyards out onto the submerged continental shelf in the Atlantic. Ted has been a regular speaker at Friends of Pine Hawk events and is best known for his thirty-year exploration of the Northeast’s antiquarian past, with the Hidden Landscape film series.
The Friends of Pine Hawk programs are presented with support from Acton Memorial Library, Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area and the Littleton Historical Society.
