Friday, March 10th, 7:00-8:00 p.m. Excavation of the Martins Creek Mastodon Dr. Nigel Brush, Assistant Professor of Geology at Ashland University, will present a lecture on his work at the Martins Creek Mastodon Site near Berlin in Holmes County. In 1993, he and his students from the University of Akron excavated the remains of a mastodon that had been butchered by Paleo-Indian hunters during the Ice Age. Subsequent analysis of the bones and artifacts resulted in the identification of cut-marks on the bones, as well as blood residue and edge-wear on the flint flakes.
