The Wilkinson County Mound Exhibit opens June 29th, 2019 in the Wilkinson County Museum in downtown Woodville, Mississippi at 3pm, in conjunction with a “Meet the Archaeologists” discussion and Artifact Roadshow event at the African American Museum. The exhibit is curated by Dr. Megan Kassabaum, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania and Weingarten Assistant Curator at the Penn Museum, and two studen curators, Arielle Pierson and Erin Spicola.
The Mound Exhibit will feature Native American artifacts from Wilkinson County and will highlight the county’s two sites on the Mississippi Mound Trail–the Lessley and the Smith Creek sites–located along state highway 24, west of Woodville.
