Annmarie,
 
I haven't looked at it for a while, but if you have access to the Historical Atlas of Canada Volume I, Plate 14 is an excellent pre-contact trade route map by Jim Wright and Roy Carlson. It's mostly Canadian trade routes but they extend well into the northern U.S. Could be of some help.
 
Cheers,

Subject: Native American trade routes

We are in the process of redisgning our exhibits at the museum and I am trying to create a panel that will highlight the fact that the Native Americans had a viable and thriving trade network long before the Europeans ever came to this continent. The idea in my mind is to have a map of known trade routes made into a wall puzzle of 6-8 pieces (so that the kids actually look at it). I am not 100% set on this idea and can not find a map of the trade routes. Does anyone have a better idea or know where I can find a map? As always thanks for your help.
