On October 16
th, 2012, Dr. Andrews and Honors students in his Enduring Questions: Perspectives from the Sciences section visited the OU Archeological Survey in
Norman for a unique opportunity to glimpse into the past. Students who visited
the OU Archeological Survey were able to learn more about prehistoric life
around the world as well as in the Oklahoma region, including the awesome fact
that wooly mammoth remains were found in Caddo County in February of 2012. Students
who attended the field trip to Norman also had the opportunity to participate
in a spear throwing contest using a common Ice Age device called an
atlatl. In the process, they
learned
that size doesn’t always matter when the girls of the trip dominated the spear
throwing challenge.
