- This is a recording of an exhibit I helped curate at the Dundas Museum and Archives. Recorded and narrated for posterity and accessibility purposes.
My apologies for the blurriness of some of the panels, I shot the footage in a hurry and didn't notice some of the issues before it was too late to redo.

This is great work and a nice tour for those of us who weren't able to see the exhibit in person. Hopefully you'll have more opportunities to do similar exhibits in the future!
Congratulations or the guest curatorship! What a singular honor! Glad to see you begin to get some of the academic recognition you richly deserve. Your self-criticism about the reconstruction is brutally honest. The exhibit itself is brilliantly done. I especially appreciate the inclusion of the sample that visitors can handle. I was surprised by how comprehensive the exhibition was, encompassing nearly all your past research on the subject. My dream is that this becomes a traveling exhibit.
i love how the armour locks like an historical artifact becuse you have worn it a lot.
What an achievement, congratulations! Your perseverance and determination are yielding fruits and its well deserved.
Forwarded the link to Council Fire in Toronto in hopes their education department may show it.
The quality of this channel's content is beyond amazing. The videos deserve a million views each, but unfortunately the algorithm punishes efforts like this
I'm having this weird moment where I feel like I've heard the word aquientor before, but looking it up takes me back to this video. Very compelling word.
This totally, completely, and utterly KICKED ASS!! I've been followin' your vids for a while now... I gotta tellya, I really appreciate all that you do! I'm Indigenous myself, but been stuck way over here in Japan for the better part of a couple of decades - it's so very good to see culturally familiar content. THANK you 🙂
This was brilliant. It was great to see all the things you've shown us in your videos brought together in one exhibit, telling the story of your research and conclusions in one comprehensive but concise film. I found the part about how pre-contact warriors practiced maneuvers and tactics especially interesting. They clearly had a detailed knowledge base of military theory that was taught, studied, communicated and practiced. Would love to hear more about it if your research has turned up more than was presented here- e.g. if any traces have survived in oral histories or artwork.
I expect your armor to start appearing in video games within the decade.
Wow thats awesome
still some of the best content on wooden armor and armor in pre colonial america out there
It's great to see that your hard work has earned some official recognition. Congratulations!
fantastic! I hope that others were inspired to look into the history of your peoples.
Thoroughly enjoyed this upload. Self preservation interpreted as cowardice.
Awesome.
Beautiful work, congratulations! I wish I could have seen it..
Overall this exhibit seems very well put together in simultaneously demonstrating the complexity of pre-contact North-East Native civs while also exhibiting the concerns of speculative history with limited resources. Great job, would have loved to see in person if I ever had been in Ontario at the time.
Great vid, thanks for posting. I have a 'club' made from a dead root ball of european buckthorn that I pulled up at some point and used to prod a campfire. The fire burnt away the roots and left a beautiful pattern behind. It is a fierce tool. I use to smash the ice in my pond.
Very impressive! I wish I could have seen it in person but you do a nice job of showing and reading everything.
