![]() by Jean-Luc Pilon Curator of Ontario Archaeology Canadian Museum of Civilization ![]() ![]() The local Ottawa Valley archaeological community has long known of the writings of T.W. Edwin Sowter who had published a total of 6 archaeological articles between 1895 and 1917 (see Jamieson 1999). However, many of the details about this man had drifted away from the attention of those interested in the results of his investigations into the Ottawa Valley's more distant past.
This web site is a modest attempt to allow those in the heritage community, who already admired Sowter's archaeological work, and others, to acquire an appreciation for some of his other interests and pursuits, for who he was as a person , and thus provide some human dimensions to his research endeavours. Thomas Walter Edwin Sowter is richly deserving of an important place in the history of our appreciation of the Ottawa Valley and its heritage. |
