Located in the middle Apalachicola River valley of northwest Florida, the site was first occupied briefly during the
Swift Creek period at approximately 320 CE. About 1200 CE peoples of the Middle Fort Walton period began occupying the site with the construction of
platform mound and associated village site. These people are thought to have been connected with the
Cayson Mound and Village Site. The site was later occupied during the protohistoric period by
Lamar phase peoples who migrated down the lower Chattahoochee-Apalachicola River, possibly in the wake of initial European contact in the early 16th century. It was first recorded and excavated by
Clarence Bloomfield Moore in the early 20th century. ==See also==
