The Calusa and the Randell Research Center

Join us for a special lecture for Native American Heritage Month. We will be hosting Annisa Karim, Operations Manager of the Randall Research Center, who will be discussing the history of their site and their efforts to recover from Hurricane Ian. Situated on the scenic western shore of historic Pine Island, the center encompasses 67 acres at the heart of the Pineland archaeological site, a massive Calusa shell mound site. The center was heavily impacted by Hurricane Ian, and the staff have been working hard on restoration and recovery efforts.
