The Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation, Orange County and The Alliance for Historic Hillsborough are presenting the rededication of the Occaneechi Replica Village. The event takes place at River Park, 140 E Margaret Lane, Hillsborough, NC, on Saturday, April 23rd, 2022, from 1 to 3 p.m.
For over five years tribal members have worked with community volunteers, town and county staff, and the staff of the Alliance for Historic Hillsborough to reconstruct the Occaneechi Replica Village in River Park.
Construction involved the building of a palisade and four ati (huts). A work arbor, fire pit, lean-to, and cooking table were built. During the day tribal members and selected speakers will talk about the life of the area’s Indigenous Peoples and visitors will get a chance to experience a living village.
