Ohio is called the Buckeye State because of it’s many Buckeye trees
covering it’s plains and hill tops.
Ohio
has 4 regions, The Till
Plains, Appalachian Plains, Lake Plains, and
Bluegrass Region. Each region has their own
type of topography. Long ago about 12000
years BC (during the Ice Age) glaciers covered
most of Ohio. Later on after the Archaic tribe
traveled to Ohio the glaciers had melted
completely and had left large flat topped
mountains and small hills. The Appalachian
Plaeaus covered the southern side of Ohio in
rugged mountains and the northern part of the
area was left flat. The Appalachian Plateaus
covered the eastern side of Ohio in rugged
mountains while the northern side of the area
wasn’t covered by glaciers and was left flat.
Lake plain however, is home to Kelleys and
Bass Island. These islands were carved over by
glaciers over 30000 years ago and left a gash
about 400 feet wide and 35 feet deep. Lake
Plain also has extremely good soil to plant fruits
and vegetables. The Till Plains are south of
Lake Plains in the west central area of Ohio.
The glaciers however left this land flat. The Till
Plains are also home to the highest and lowest
point of Ohio, Campbell Hill (highest) at 1549
feet , and Hamilton County (lowest) at 455 feet.
It is also part of the corn belt, the corn belt
produces tons of corn during the states long hot
summers. The Till Plains also produce
soybeans, grain and raises livestock. The
Bluegrass Region is a triangular shaped area
that wasn’t affected by the glaciers. It also has
gentle hills, and is an extension of the
Bluegrass Region of Kentucky .
Ohio’s Bluegrass region is a triangular
shaped area that is an extension of
Kentucky’s Bluegrass region.
Only the Rocky Mountains in Colorado
are larger than the Appalachian
Plateaus.
The Till Plains are home to both the
highest and lowest points in Ohio
Kelleys and Bass Islands are both located
near the Lake Plains region.
Ohio has hot, humid summers and cold dry
winters. The average temperature for the
summer in Ohio is 84° and the average for
July is 73° but the highest temperature in
Ohio reaches a stunning 113°. This record
was located in Gallipolis, Ohio on July 21,
1934. WOW! How cold the lowest
temperature dropped to -39° in Milligan,
Ohio on February 10, 1899.The average for
January is 28°. Ohio receives quite a bit of
rain each year, about 38 inches in
Cleveland and 37 inches for Columbus! But
the wettest area in Ohio is in the southwest
where they receive 44 inches of rain fall.
The driest part of Ohio is near Lake Eire
(one of the great lakes) where they only
receive 32 inches of rain fall and snow fall
combined. About 2.5 feet of snow falls each
year in Ohio but the eastern and western
part of the state gets about 100 feet
annually in a year.
Summers in Ohio are hot and humid and
can reach a temperature of 73° in July.
Cold and dry is what winters in
Ohio are like.
The average snow fall in a year for the
northern and southern sides
of Ohio
receives 100 feet annually.
This gorgeous city, Cleveland, receives
about 37 inches of snow each year.
Ohio’s first inhabitants were the
Paleo Indians, they lived in Ohio in the time
area of 12000 B.C. when the glaciers still
covered the northern and western parts of Ohio.
The Paleo Indians hunted with spears and killed
large animals such as deer, and small game
they also fished and gathered nuts and fruits.
Once the massive glaciers melted and formed
the Great Lakes the Paleo Indians left towards
the water. Later on after the Paleo Indians left
the Archaic people traveled to Ohio, they settled
down in small communities, the Archaic people
built small tents made from wooden poles and
covered in animal hides or bark. They hunted
for small animals and in streams for fish. When
the Ice Age ended the climate changed and
became warmer and more humid and during
this change in climate a variety of plants grew
and animals began to thrive. The Archaic
people had to eat different foods now such as
fish, acorns, and berries. As the culture
changed in Ohio the Woodland Tradition began.
The Woodland people built permanent villages
in Ohio over 2000 years ago and they built
burial mounds from earth and stone. Some of
the mounds still exist today such as the Serpent
Mound in Adams County. The Woodland people
included people known as the Adena and the
Hopewell. The Adena people were Ohio’s first
farmers they grew Sunflowers, Squash and
Corn. Later on the European began to explore
and settle in the Ohio land. Like many states
Ohio had problems with Indians and White
settlers and After the Battle Of Fallen Timber
which occurred during the late 1700s, Native
American leaders signed a Treaty. The Treaty
was called the Treaty of Greenville. This Treaty
forced Native Americans to move to the
northwestern part of Ohio. During the Civil War,
much like other states on the northern side of
the United States, Ohio did not allow slavery.
Many Ohioans as well as their neighbors
wanted to put an end to slavery once and for all.
In fact many slaves escaped from their owners
and fled to Canada, passing through Ohio.
The Serpent Mound in Adams County are
one of the historical burial grounds the
Adena people constructed.
Long ago glaciers covered the
northern and western parts of Ohio.
The Adena people were Ohio’s
first farmers, they grew
sunflowers , squash, and Corn.
