Abstract:

The Cane Creek Site, situated on the banks of Cane Creek, a tributary of the North Toe River near the town of Bakersville, Mitchell County was brought to the attention of archaeologists due to the numerous graves found while the land owner was digging holes for other purposes. From the numerous human and cultural artifacts, the site dates back to at least 10,000 years ago in its original occupancy.

Most of the sites were in the southern coastal region of the state and were among the first recorded in their counties. Tucker is remembered for his ethical archaeological research as he donated most of his materials to the public so that they can be preserved and appreciated by locals and the widest possible audience.

Holmes observed that the burial mounds in Duplin, Sampson, Robeson, Cumberland, and southern Wake counties had certain common characteristics. In this article Hogue outlines methods for analyzing the skeletal material found in these ossuaries.

Reid, J. Jefferson

Abstract:

This brief comparison of ceramics from the Hollywood mounds with ceramics from the Town Creek mound in North Carolina emphasizes similarities in the physical appearance of the pottery and in the presence of an urn-burial complex at both sites. Material from upper levels at the Hollywood mounds is described as showing striking resemblances to the material from Town Creek. The Lower levels at Hollywood possess "Southern Cult'' material not duplicated at Town Creek, where "Southern Cult" influence is minor.
