Routon has seven mounds on the west bank of the Ouachita River. The four largest are rectangular with flat tops. The other three are dome shaped and less than two feet tall. The mound visible from the road is rectangular. It is twelve and a half feet tall and two hundred thirty by one hundred eighty feet at the base. Radiocarbon dates suggest Indians built the mounds around A.D. 1100.
