- Summary: Join Dan Zoto for a virtual presentation through time as he explores the rich Native American history of Cape Cod. Dan will use the results of his recent analysis of the Eastham Historical Society's artifact collections to highlight technological and cultural changes over thousands of years of Native life on Cape Cod. Learn how people adapted to the Cape's dynamic environment as it changed from a small rise on a vast coastal plain to the narrow peninsula ringed with bays, estuaries, and salt marshes that it is today.
Bio: Dan Zoto is an archaeologist living on Cape Cod. He holds a bachelor's degree in Anthropology from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and a master's in Anthropology from the University of Connecticut.

Dan - your dad is so proud of you. I worked for him years ago. Much love. ❤
Thank you for the information. I live on Cape Cod and I always keep my head down while looking for arrowheads!
I come from mass. Love hearing this my heritage is native american keep doing this. Thank you Sandy neck has many artifacts
Are you Catholic?
I live in Berkley, MA across the river from the Sweets Knoll site. I recently found a stone paint bowl which I immediately knew was Native American. I was curious so I took it to the Old Colony History Museum and learned that it dates back 10-12,000 years!
There was a massive dig done called the Bear Swamp Site I and Site II, beginning in 1969 which was published in volume 38 of the Massachusetts Archaeological Society journal of 1969. It’s fascinating if you google the journal report. There was also a red paint ceremonial burial and thousands of other artifacts found. Turns out it’s once of only 15 (I think) sites that paleoindian points and artifacts have been found in the northeast.
Great job Dan, That Clovis looks like Paleo Jasper from Maryland, Thanks
I'm not nodding off. Thank you for your efforts. I have an affinity for the history of the native americans before european settlers occupied this land. This must be fascinating work.
you prolly dont care but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me.
@Caiden Kalel Instablaster =)
@Davian Legend thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Thank you, great information.
Nice work Dan. Only nodded off briefly.
I did not nod off, either. Very informative!
Fantastic presentation!! Thanks so much!
Gostei muito dó seu canal é sou garimpeiro 👏
Love the presentation.
I was born in Chatham and love indigenous history. Great job 👍
This is great, thanks!
I have found a bunch of late paleo early archaic artifacts here on the cape...
Am a native Cape Codder Have a large collection of arrow heads I found on Cape. And know a lot of the native history from their since my family were on the first boat their .Lewis FAMILY.
the mayflower?
Nice presentation, great subject area.
The Native Americans had a network of trade that ran West to East and North to South. They were mobile. All waterways were used like Highways.
Including the Ocean, Phonecians traveled the entire globe. This has been proven through artifacts from Mideast found in Peru, Nicotine in Egyptian Mummies, and DNA of Iranians in New Zealand.
"Mainstream Academia" have a Paradigm that is outdated.
Its far more interesting and logical, with these and other Peer Reviewed Updates.
The USA is lagging behind a bit.
Very well done. I enjoyed this immensely
I had found some interesting items in eastham while exploring. How would I go about getting them identified?
Send me some pictures
@@tomrankin5108 need email
@@jimbriggs8648 sorry I guess I didn't get any pictures you want to try again
@@tomrankin5108 I guess I sent some already a few months ago and they were just oddly curved rocks found in the dune wall at nauset light
@Picklefart35 your name is making me laugh so frikin hard lol
Exotic stones originating from far West may have ended up in Cape Cod due to Indian groups following migrating herds East. Mississippi Mound Indian culture not surprisingly bears similarities to Mexican Indian cultures thousands of miles away.
And if you know about mounds in MA (and on the Cape) you might have a different opinion.

You need to do more research on my people and how smart and powerful we where the history you learn is watered down and flip flopped. The Algonquin are a strong people. For me being a Narragansett man I know for a fact our history is rich and you only get told 1/8 out the truth
Those don't look like chert, that material we don't usually find in the Midwest.
Hola
Aku banyak posil2 burns
Besok aku bikin lev pideo
I and my family built Cape Cod
🤔
Lot of shoveling?
The earth is only about 6000 years old, so how can these artifacts be older than the earth?
Posil aku tulang hewan ,belum pernah aku lihat di indonesia
Posil aku nanti aku krm video tempat aku dpt kan di pertambangan batu bara kedalaman 150 MTR
more volume, please, although ice presentation.
Aku mengharap sekali posil aku dilabor
Very informative presentation of projectiles of each era and of the people who used them. But, you need a better speech pattern if you're going to make presentation as a career. Thank you just the same.
Who are the grave goods of people of European ancestry repatriated too?
Another Clovis first believer LOL.
A.D. not BP
So using the rationale of returning things thousands years old to a current tribe, I just go collect my stones from Stonehenge then!
You do realize the Cape was free of ice from before 18K years ago? Your "archaeology" is missing 5K years.
ដ
thats sad when you know more than a so called archeologist
Just the past 13k years.... outdated science !!
That is awful quick movement from Alaska to Cape Cod. crossing the land bridge and reaching settling Cape Cod in basicaly the same year. You there were pepole around even before that?
13,000 years🤡🤔🤦♀️😂 our earth is only 6k years old. Jesus is King and will be returning for His bride. Today is your day for Salvation in Jesus Christ.
"When these people colonized the region"?!?!? Are you serious?!?! We did not colonize any region! That isn't part if our culture! Also, the picture of men hollowing out a tree for a canoe is also inaccurate. This would've been done using fire as the main tool. Stone tools are for refinement when the burning is done. The image doesn't suggest the log has been burned.
Zoom is bunk wont watch.
