Documents

This conference proceeding provides descriptions and interpretations of some of the structural, artefactual, and skeletal evidence discovered by Charles Nash's team during the excavations from 1960 to 1967. Special focus is paid towards interpretations of chronology, as well as the differential mound utilization and mortuary ceremonialism associated with the latest Mississippian phase of the site.
