FROM THE FIELD JOURNAL OF DR. ELIJAH THORNE, AUGUST 1932
My explorations in Clay County today, particularly in the general southern environs of West Point, revealed a notable earthwork. It stands apart from the later platform mounds, presenting as a distinct conical or dome-like elevation. All indications – its form, local legends (though often embellished), and comparative archaeology – point to a Woodland period construction (possibly 100 B.C. - A.D. 400), primarily serving as a funerary site for what appear to have been high-status members of a local, now anonymous, tribal group. This earthwork is a feature of principal archaeological interest.
The State Historical Commission often uses a very particular and descriptive primary title on their green markers for such important prehistoric earthen mounds.
Task: Find the marker and state the exact four-word primary title that is prominently displayed at the top to complete this challenge.
