Washington June 21. Archaeologist Gerard Fowke spent winter in Central Louisiana examining 20 mounds built by a prehistoric tribe along the Red River near Marchville. The largest mound rises 12 feet and covers three acres. Artifacts are scarce, suggesting an era before contact with Spaniards. Large mounds contain decayed skeletons and remnants of houses once atop them, while soil erosion has altered the landscape. The builders’ relation to neighboring tribes and their ancient origin remain mystery.
