A three-screen slide show with stereo sound, produced by UO Prof, emeritus Don Hunter, will begin at 7 p.m. tonight in Room 177 Lawrence Hall. Hunter's show features artifacts of prehistoric Oregon cultures of 10,000 years ago that were excavated in the Northern Great Basin by Eugene archaeologist Dr. Luther Cressman. A slide-illustrated lecture on the Steens Mountain Prehistory Project will be given by Melvin Aikens, University anthropology department chairman. Aikens is co-director of a major archa eological study that is examin ing the use of environmental resources by prehistoric peoples who lived in southeastern Oregon. On Saturday, May 16, two special presentations for children and their families will be featured at 1 p.m. in the University Museum of Natural History. A slide lecture showing the prehistoric findings along the shores of Lake Abert in Lake County will be presented by University archaeologist Richard Pettigrew. Test excavations there unearthed evidence of a large sedentary, or village-dwelling, society with a population of possibly 5,000. Pettigrew, who considers the site “one of the most significant finds in North America,” says people lived in stone houses and earth lodges along the lake in Eastern Oregon perhaps as much as 3,000 years ago. Also featured on Saturday at the museum will be a repeat of Aikens’ talk on the Steens Mountain project. All presentations are spon sored in part by the University Museum of Natural History. Hunter’s slide show is made possible by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Aiken’s presentation is made possible by the City of Eugene Room Tax Funds. In addition, tonight’s event is being presented as part of the Oregon Wilderness Forum, a two-day seminar examining the future of the state’s desert pub lic wildlands, sponsored by the Survival Center and the Oregon Wilderness Coalition.
