Nebraska celebrates 150th
Nebraska’s history
On March 1, 1867, Nebraska was granted statehood, but according to The US 50, which is a website that provides information about all 50 states with the help from US Governors’ Offices, State Departments of Tourism, Departments of Economics & Community Development, there is archaeological evidence of settlement that dates back much more than 150 years ago. More than 10,000 years ago Native Americans hunted big game in the area and the recorded history dates to the 1700s.
