Ancient Indian mounds

"A small red jasper owl figure, no bigger than a thumb tip, turns up in a river bed in the Withalacoochee River in Tampa, Fla. Another is found in the Yazoo Basin north of Greenville, Miss. A third appears along Bayou Bodcau in Bossier Parish.

What these three pot-bellied owls have in common is that they were sculpted approximately 3,500 years ago by some of the most ancient settlers to inhabit North America. These were the people of the Poverty Point culture, prehistoric ancestors of Indian nations such as the Caddo, Tunica and Choctaw."
