Mound 15

Mound 15 is a rectangular platform mound approximately 4 feet high and about 150 by 165 at its base, probably dating to A.D. 1-300. The eastern half has been severely damaged by plowing and erosion, but the western portion is largely intact. No archaeological excavations have been conducted on Mound 15, but soil auger tests suggest it was built in a single construction event, and no evidence of sand-covered summits like those observed on Mounds 5 and 29 was found.
