Spectacular discoveries at Mound C at the Etowah site in Georgia, the result of excavations there and in Mississippi from 1924 to 1928, changed the American perspective of the artistic achievements of prehistoric Native Americans in the eastern United States. These discoveries, in a mound that had supposedly already been excavated under the sponsorship of the Smithsonian Institution in 1883, made up the final major field expedition of Warren King Moorehead, a legendary figure in American archaeology.The papers, written in the first person and originally published in 1932, at the end of what is considered the humanistic golden age of American anthropology, today offer a fresh understanding of the history of American archaeology and of the cultural heritage of prehistoric Native America.The Etowah site was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965.
