Lyceum Luncheon Speaker Series
ATHENS, Ohio -- The Southeast Ohio History Center Lyceum Speaker Series will present "The Atlatl: The World's Ancient Hunting Tool" by Steve Barnett and Ray Strischek, Southeast Ohio members of the Ohio Atlatl Association, at noon March 20 at the History Center at 24 West State St.
Barnett and Strischek will present the story of how the prehistoric spear-throwing tool provided early hunters with greater power and range and accuracy for use in survival than when throwing a spear by hand alone.
The Lyceum Luncheon Speaker Series is a monthly lunchtime opportunity to learn a bit about the history of the local region where Ohio began. The series is generally scheduled for the third Thursdays of the month with exceptions for holidays.
