Life 21,000 Years Ago | How Did Humans Survive the Rage of the Woolly Rhinoceros?

For thousands of years the Great Falls area was a gathering and meeting place for indigenous people of the area, the Piscataway and the Powhatan. Groups would gather to fish and perform ceremonies in honor and celebration of the river’s power. The falls formed during the last glacial period about 35,000 years ago while the rocks date back to the Precambrian period of 750 million years ago. #ancientrock #river #waterfall #indigenous #greatfalls #md
