About the event
From the Hopewell culture in the eastern U.S. to the Indians in the American Southwest and Northern
Mexico, ancient Native American cultures actively engaged in meteorite collecting. Fragments from
Meteor Crater have been discovered at ancient dwellings in Central Arizona. Follow Verde Valley
Archaeology Center Executive Director Emeritus Ken Zoll to these meteorite locations. Find out how
meteorites were used, how they were associated with Meteor Crater and how one confirmed the date of a
site’s destruction.
