Crenshaw Site
History
1
The Crenshaw Site is an archaeological ceremonial center in the Great Bend region of the Red River in southwestern Arkansas, associated with the Caddo and known for an unusually long cultural sequence. Archaeologists have found evidence from the earlier Fourche Maline tradition, sometimes described as pre-Caddo, as well as from later Caddo occupation. The site is especially distinctive for features uncommon among regional mound centers, including a causeway between two mounds, a deposit with more than 2,000 deer antlers, and deposits of stacked human skulls and detached mandibles representing more than 300 individuals. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
