Native Peoples: Ohio’s ancient and modern history spans more than 12,000 years, the first 11,800 of which is felt through the oral traditions of American native peoples and is known primarily through archaeological investigations.

Here are a few of Ohio’s notable natives: Chief Logan, Little Turtle, Tecumseh and Blue Jacket. Who else can you think of?
