Ohio's habit of neglecting its history risks a severe memory lapse

by Todd Kleismit

Sunday August 02, 2009, 5:00 AM

 

Have you visited an Ohio historic site or museum lately? The Buckeye State is home to about 1,000 of them. Did you know that several prehistoric sites in Ohio are soon to be included on the World Heritage List, alongside the Egyptian pyramids and the Grand Canyon? Did you know that nearly 3,700 historic properties in Ohio are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the third most in the country?

 

 

Kleismit is the director of government relations for the Ohio Historical Society.
