TOWN CREEK INDIAN MOUND












I took a side trip to Town Creek Indian Mound located in Mt. Gilead. A culture called the “Pee Dee” lived there, way before America was “discovered”. Through archeology, the mound was pieced together. Start at the visitor’s center museum where you will find both the history and artifacts. The walk to the Ceremonial Center for the Guard Tower and three buildings: The Mortuary; The Town House and Mound; and East Lodge. You will certainly get a sense of the Pee Dee way of life.
