Artifact of the Month
Have you ever puzzled over a few of the artifacts in our exhibits? Here is the place to learn more about the unique artifacts in the Schingoethe Museum. Written by the staff of the Schingoethe Center, the Artifact of the Month is a collection of short articles that focuses on particularly interesting artifacts. In the articles, you will find information about them, what they were used for, and by whom. You will also learn about the Native American tribes that created them.
Every month throughout the academic year (September through May), we publish a new article that highlights an artifact that can be found in our collection. Click on an article and step into our vaults!
