In this Oregon Encyclopedia History Night, archaeologist, Doug Wilson, will
discuss the development of
the Northwest through the artifacts and narratives of Fort Vancouver, a
center of trade and military history
in the Pacific Northwest. The fort’s museum collection, centered on over 60
years of National Park Service
archaeological excavations provides a tangible means to understanding
technological change, health and
diet, the history of globalization, and the creation of the Northwest
identity.
