Fire Felling a Tulip Tree for a Dugout Canoe
"Kevin Finney (www.pathwayscrg.org) and myself, Erik Vosteen
(www.burntmud.com) assited a group of fifth grade students at
Goodwillie Environmental School, Ada, MI as they built a dugout canoe
using mostly pre steel tools. We began by burning the tree down. In the
process, we found many valuable clues that have helped us to understand
the historical accounts of dugout canoe building and also to make sense
of the various dugouts we have found in museums and other collections.
The project has also added significantly to our combined decades of
knowledge related to the tools, technologies, and processes that pre
historic people relied on daily. Watch for more snippets of this
project as we turn this log into one of the replica ancient canoes you
can view on our websites."
