War and Warriors: Weapons of the Shawnee Nation - The presence of war was an ever growing factor in the early years of westward migration. Join the men and women at Martin's Station for a better understanding of the weapons, skills, and techniques used by Native Warriors in their struggle against settlers moving into Kentucky. Listen as historical interpreters explain each weapon, it's use as well as how it was made. You can see and touch a bit of history as these weapons are put on display.
