The Pequot Museum has been on our wish list for quite a while. We'd heard how wonderful it is but we were surprised at how large the museum is and how thorough the information about these Native Americans from the dawn of time through present day. We took our time examining the exhibits at the beginning and after 3 hours, ran out of time as the museum closed. We will be back to see the rest, because it was fascinating. Next trip we will also go up the tower viewing spot. Today there is not much visibility so we didn't ride the elevator to the top.
The main attraction of this museum is a village replica. The audio tour was informative and the displays very well done. We learned a lot about dwelling construction, farming techniques, tool making, social issues, adornment, history, hunting and more.
