Thousands of years ago bands of nomadic people came to what would be called Russell Cave. The cave and surrounding upland forest would provide these people with the basic necessities to survive. The cave provided a shelter from the bitter cold of the winter season. The forest provided food, tools, and fuel for their fires.
