Question: The Mississippian stone statuary artifacts were produced near what modern city?

Context paragraphs:
Mississippian stone statuary: The Mississippian stone statuary are artifacts of polished stone in the shape of human figurines made by members of the Mississippian culture (800 to 1600 CE) and found in archaeological sites in the American Midwest and Southeast.  Two distinct styles exist; the first is a style of carved "flint clay" found over a wide geographical area but believed to be from the American Bottom area and manufactured at the Cahokia site specifically; the second is a variety of carved and polished locally available stone primarily found in the Tennessee-Cumberland region and northern Georgia (although there are lone outliers of this style in other regions).  Early European explorers reported seeing stone and wooden statues in native temples, but the first documented modern discovery was made in 1790 in Kentucky, and given as a gift to Thomas Jefferson.

Kincaid Mounds State Historic Site: The Kincaid Mounds Historic Site (11MX2-11; 11PO2-10)   1050-1400 CE, is the site of a city from the prehistoric Mississippian culture.  One of the largest settlements of the Mississippian culture, it was located at the southern tip of present-day U.S. state of Illinois.  Kincaid Mounds has been notable for both its significant role in native North American prehistory and for the central role the site has played in the development of modern archaeological techniques.  The site had at least 11 substructure platform mounds (ranking fifth for mound-culture pyramids).  Artifacts from the settlement link its major habitation and the construction of the mounds to the Mississippian period, but it was also occupied earlier during the Woodland period.

Dodge Site: The Dodge Site is an archaeological site in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Ohio.  Located north of Bowling Green in Wood County, the site was inhabited by Middle Woodland and Upper Mississippian peoples.  Among the artifacts discovered at the site are ceramics and stone tools.  The site's stratigraphy is obvious: the Middle Woodland village site and cemetery can easily be distinguished from the Upper Mississippian occupation zone that sits on top of it.  While only a small portion of the 2.2 acre (0.89 ha) site has been excavated, the artifacts that have been discovered at Dodge have contributed significantly to an understanding of the western basin of Lake Erie around AD 1300.  Enough material has been recovered to facilitate radiometric dating, as well as identifying the peoples who once inhabited the site.  The excavations also revealed the intensity of occupation: the Middle Woodland layer was substantially larger than the exceptionally thin Upper Mississippian component.

Larson Site: The Larson Site is a prehistoric archaeological site in Fulton County, Illinois, near the city of Lewistown.  The site was the location of a Mississippian town and was occupied during the 13th and 14th centuries.  The town was one of seven major town sites in the central Illinois River valley and served as a social and economic center for surrounding villages and farms.  The artifacts uncovered at the site have been well-preserved and include both organic remains and intact homes, providing significant archaeological evidence regarding the Mississippian way of life.

Cahokia: The Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site (11 MS 2) is the site of a pre-Columbian Native American city ( 600–1400 CE) directly across the Mississippi River from modern St. Louis, Missouri.  This historic park lies in southern Illinois between East St. Louis and Collinsville.  The park covers 2200 acre , or about 3.5 sqmi , and contains about 80 mounds, but the ancient city was much larger.  In its heyday, Cahokia covered about 6 sqmi and included about 120 human-made earthen mounds in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and functions.

Gaziantep Museum of Archaeology: The Gaziantep Museum of Archaeology (Turkish: "Gaziantep Arkeoloji Müzesi" ) is an archaeological museum located in the city of Gaziantep, Turkey.  It is best known for its collection of mosaics, most of which were excavated from the ancient Roman city site of Zeugma.  Other exhibits include a collection of paleolithic artifacts; items from a Bronze Age necropolis; Hittite, Persian, Roman, Hellenistic, and Commagene artworks and glassware; Ottoman and Islamic coins and medallions; and the skeleton of a mammoth.  Attached to the museum is a garden containing a selection of stone artifacts, including pagan tombstones from Zeugma, Christian tombstones, and Hittite statuary.

Beasley Mounds Site: The Beasley Mounds Site (40SM43) (also known as the Dixon Springs Mound Site) is a Mississippian culture archaeological site located at the confluence of Dixon Creek and the Cumberland River near the unincorporated community of Dixon Springs in Smith County, Tennessee.  The site was first excavated by amateur archaeologists in the 1890s.  More examples of Mississippian stone statuary have been found at the site than any other in the Middle Tennessee area.  The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.

Brick Church Mound and Village Site: The Brick Church Mound and Village Site (40DV39) (also known as the Love Mounds and the Brick Church Pike Mound Site) is a Mississippian culture archaeological site located in Nashville in Davidson County, Tennessee.  It was excavated in the late nineteenth century by Frederic Ward Putnam.  During excavations in the early 1970s the site produced a unique cache of ceramic figurines very similar in style to Mississippian stone statuary which are now on display at the Frank H. McClung Museum.  It was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on May 7, 1973 as NRIS number 73001759 although this did not save the site from being almost totally destroyed by residential development.

Castalian Springs Mound Site: The Castalian Springs Mound State Historic Site (40SU14) (also known as Bledsoe's Lick Mound and Cheskiki Mound) is a Mississippian culture archaeological site located near the small unincorporated community of Castalian Springs in Sumner County, Tennessee.  The site was first excavated in the 1890s and again as recently as the 2005 to 2011 archaeological field school led by Dr. Kevin E. Smith.  A number of important finds have been associated with the site, most particularly several examples of Mississippian stone statuary and the "Castalian Springs shell gorget" held by the National Museum of the American Indian.  The site is owned by the State of Tennessee and is a State Historic Site managed by the Bledsoe's Lick Association for the Tennessee Historical Commission.  The site is not currently open to the public.

Orendorf Site: The Orendorf Site is a prehistoric archaeological site located near the city of Canton, Fulton County, Illinois.  The site includes four distinct areas of Middle Mississippian settlement; the settlement area was one of seven major sites in the Spoon River tradition.  The four settlement sites within the larger site came as the result of a single village relocating multiple times; this movement became useful to archaeologists, as artifacts from different periods are spread out rather than mixed together at a single site.  The settlement functioned as a regional center within the Spoon River culture, making it a hub in its hierarchal political organization and part of many important trade routes.  Trade and migration linked the settlement to the large Mississippian city of Cahokia; while the settlement's culture had much in common with Cahokian culture, it was also a distinct regional culture in its own right.
