Students answer the question “What is a civilization?” using ten basic characteristics of civilizations as a guide. Ancient North American civilizations, such as Cahokia, are explored. The characteristics of civilizations are made relevant through their application during a museum scavenger hunt. Add on an optional 30-minute pottery activity where students enjoy creating their own version of a historical Manitoba pot.
