Join award-winning writer and director Olive Talley for a screening of The Stones Are Speaking, a powerful documentary about the groundbreaking discoveries at the Gault Archaeological Site and the visionary Austin archaeologist who saved it for history.
The film follows Mike Collins, who, at great personal risk and expense, preserved 30 acres of looted land once known as a pay-to-dig site. Through his efforts and those of his team, the Gault Site was revealed as one of the most significant archaeological locations in the Americas. Their discovery of artifacts dating back 20,000 years—near the end of the last Ice Age—rewrote the timeline for human habitation in the Western Hemisphere.
The Stones Are Speaking is more than a story of archaeological discovery; it is a testament to the power of perseverance, the impact of individual action, and the spirit of collaboration that can change the course of history. A Q&A with the filmmaker will follow the 56-minute screening.
