Caption:
Above is shown a miniature reproduction (five feet to the inch) of the "second stockade" that was built by ancient Indians 10 miles northeast of Imlay City, in Lapeer county. The outline of this enclosure, with a larger similar one nearby, was unearthed by Dr. Emerson F. Greenman, heading a University of Michigan expedition that excavated extensively on the Roy Younge farm last summer. Each of the twigs used in the miniature represents one of the saplings that comprised the enclosure. The picture is taken from the west end.

AADL Productions Podcast: 48th Ann Arbor Film Festival
Tuesday marks the start of the 48th Ann Arbor Film Festival, one of Ann Arbor's world-class annual events. AAFF's Executive Director, Donald Harrison, stopped by to give us a quick overview of what we have to look forward to in this year's festival. Aside from the many great films on offer, Donald talks about some of the panel discussions and live performances. This year's highlights include an evening with legendary experimental filmmaker Kenneth Anger and a specially commissioned soundtrack, performed live by composer Flying Lotus, to Harry Smith's 1962 film Heaven & Earth Magic. Two of this year's events happen at AADL: Bison Boys & Famous Monsters of Michigan: 1970s Super-8mm Films of Jimm Juback & Cary Loren and Gerry Fialka Discusses Dream Awake: How James Joyce Invented Experimental Cinema & Disguised It As A Book.
