Abenaki groups lived in the area we call Bath, Maine for thousands of years, and the land and rivers continue to be their homeland. Despite this, out of the 34 historical markers currently on display around Bath, only one mentions the Abenaki, and it is only to explain the context for European colonial settlers. To counter this, a project began to research and design four new historical markers that focus solely on the Abenaki. Through this public history project, connections were established with the W8banakiak, Bath Historical Society, and Bath City Hall. While this project remains in its early stages, the ground has been set for new historical markers to be designed in collaboration with the W8banakiak and erected around the city of Bath. This presentation discusses how the goals of this project changed along its course, and what the process has looked like thus far. It will then dive into what the future of this project looks like, including the collaboration involved and the steps that will be taken to ensure these new historical markers are installed to create a fuller and more accurate picture of the history of Bath, Maine.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
