Learn about indigenous people of Quebec with an archaeologist from paleohistoric to modern times through a hands-on interactive activity with artifact reproductions. This presentation based on current archaeological knowledge will offer an overview of the landscape, the lifeways and the main cultural traditions throughout paleohistory.

Martin Lominy studied anthropology at the Université de Montréal with a specialization in prehistoric archaeology. Over the course of a decade as a museum educator and anthropology teacher working with artifact collections and aboriginal colleagues on various education projects, he developed an expertise on aboriginal technologies through the reproduction and experimentation of artifacts. He founded Abotec in 2005 and has since provided educational and scientific services for schools, museums, universities, research groups and aboriginal communities.
