Location:<\/strong>\u00a0Indiangrass Preserve & Katy Prairie Welcome Center, 31975 Hebert Rd., Waller, TX<\/p>\n Details:\u00a0<\/strong>Pre-history of the Katy Prairie: Dan Worrall Talk at the Welcome Center<\/p>\n Step back thousands of years and explore the fascinating heritage of our region in Pre-history of the Katy Prairie, an insightful presentation by historian Dan Worrall. Nestled in a vital grassland corridor between the forested Brazos River Valley and the Piney Woods, the Katy Prairie served as a well-worn seasonal migration route for bison for many millennia. This abundant landscape attracted roaming hunters from the very start of the Native American presence in coastal Texas 13,000 years ago. Attendees will learn how early inhabitants used controlled prairie fires to guide bison into forested creeks \u2014 an intentional land management practice that actively shaped the coastal prairies we know today.<\/p>\n The presentation also traces these land practices into the early historic era, focusing on the Akokisa band of the Attakapa tribe. Led by a chief named El Gordo, the Akokisa maintained a notable hunting camp visited by Spanish military expeditions in the early 18th century – a village site located right near present-day Coastal Prairie Conservancy\u2019s Indiangrass Preserve. Don’t miss this opportunity to uncover the rich ecological and human history embedded in the land beneath our feet.<\/p>\n Registration:<\/strong>\u00a0For more info and to register, go to website\u00a0HERE<\/a><\/p>\n Please use the following AT Code: AT: Single Presentation; TMN AT Report hours<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"pre-history-of-the-katy-prairie","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2026-09-19 10:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"09","day":"19","hour":"10","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2026-09-19 12:30:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"09","day":"19","hour":"12","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2026-09-19 15:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"09","day":"19","hour":"15","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2026-09-19 17:30:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"09","day":"19","hour":"17","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Chicago","timezone_abbr":"CDT","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_code":"","currency_position":"","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Advanced Training","slug":"advanced-training","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":12,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":979,"filter":"raw","meta":[],"id":7419,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/7419","collection":"https:\/\/txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":201106,"status":"publish","date":"2026-09-13 14:36:05","date_utc":"2026-09-13 19:36:05","modified":"2026-09-19 15:04:14","modified_utc":"2026-09-19 20:04:14","url":"https:\/\/txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin\/venue\/indiangrass-preserve-coastal-prairie-conservancy-31975-hebert-rd-waller-tx-77484-usa\/","venue":"Indiangrass Preserve – Coastal Prairie Conservancy, 31975 Hebert Rd, Waller, TX 77484, USA","slug":"indiangrass-preserve-coastal-prairie-conservancy-31975-hebert-rd-waller-tx-77484-usa","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin?id=201106","global_id_lineage":["txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin?id=201106"]},"organizer":[],"custom_fields":[]},{"id":200351,"global_id":"txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin?id=200351","global_id_lineage":["txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin?id=200351"],"author":"1356","status":"publish","date":"2026-07-12 17:19:36","date_utc":"2026-07-12 22:19:36","modified":"2026-09-19 15:03:49","modified_utc":"2026-09-19 20:03:49","url":"https:\/\/txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin\/event\/armand-bayou-sunset-cruise-38\/","rest_url":"https:\/\/txmn.org\/lowertrinitybasin\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/events\/200351","title":"Armand Bayou: Sunset Cruise","description":" In person.
