Indian Head Rock Project
 
The Indian Head Rock Project was initiated by Steve Middleton during the filming of his documentary Between the Rock and the Commonwealth in the summer of 2016. The collection consists of documentation and images on the history, and folklore, of the Indian Head Rock that was located in the Ohio River across from Portsmouth, Ohio. Included in the collection are newspaper clippings, photographs, and videos interviews with individuals associated with the removal of the rock from the river and the political and legal actions that followed.
