In 1879, human remains representing,

identified. 

During 1886–1887, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from near 

Nashville in Dickson County, TN, by 

George T. Halley, and donated by him 

to the Peabody Museum of Archaeology 

and Ethnology in 1887. No known 

individuals were identified.
