The Newberry Tablet: Its History and New Research

  • St. Ignace Public Library 110 W. Spruce St. Saint Ignace, MI 49781 (map)

Since its discovery in 1896, the Newberry Tablet has sparked imagination and debate about its origins and meaning. Despite the long-held belief that the tablet is a hoax, new research is being conducted that tests the theory that Minoan explorers made the Tablet. This presentation will examine the history and culture of the Minoans to explain why they may have traveled to North America, as well as the evidence that supports this theory.
