Arboretum Landscape Teaching Aid Series: A River Emerged From Under A Glacier (3.19497)
Date: 1940 – 1960Creator: Watts, May Theilgaard
Type: Drawing
Description:Primarily textual teaching aid depicting Arboretum landscape. This material shows the origin of gravel pits at the Arboretum.
Header: A RIVER EMERGED FROM UNDER A GLACIER
Text and illustrations from top to bottom:
- [Depicted in stylized scroll with illustration of a steam shovel in gravel pit] The Record: There are several old gravel pits in the Arboretum.
- Interpreting the record:
- 1) A river running under a glacier is confined to a narrow channel, and is, therefore swift. Because of its swiftness it can carry gravel.
- 2) When such a river comes out from under the ice it spreads out and slows down. Slow moving water can carry only fine material. Therefore the river dropped its heavy material.
- 3) When men found these places they dug the gravel out.
