À propos
Explore and learn about this amazing archaeological site. Engage with the late 16th century artifacts on loan from the Canadian Museum of History and the Huron-Wendat Museum, interact with a 3-D virtual longhouse gaming experience created in partnership with Ryerson University and oral histories from Huron-Wendat Nation members.
The Jean-Baptiste Lainé Site, previously referred to as the Mantle Site, was home to a remarkable late 16th century Ancestral Wendat community discovered in southeast Whitchurch-Stouffville between 2003-2005 during excavation for a future development. This archaeological site clearly corroborates Huron-Wendat knowledge and culture in terms of its ultimate origins and deepest cultural identity.
