Eastern South Dakota has a good many Burial Mounds, located in this
roadside park and in Roberts County and elsewhere in the Big Sioux
and James River Valley's.
It is believed they were created by basket-carried earth.
Artifacts recovered include pottery, stone, knives, and hammers and
both marine and fresh water shell beads.
Comparable to the creation of an ant heap and to the culture of an
ancient race in the history of this Continent. The Mounds in this
Park is typical, as are the others in South Dakota, of an existing
culture between 300 and 1400 A.D.
