Description
Drilled red wolf canines, Helena Crossing, Phillips County, Arkansas. Beads made of marine shells were found with 15 red wolf drilled lower canines in the waist area of a burial in Helena Mound C. Mortuary use of large carnivore canines is not limited to a Hopewellian horizon. Canines are rare, however, in Marksville context.

Sheet copper cylinder, Helena Crossing, Phillips County, Arkansas. An unusual imported copper artifact was found in an early Marksville context on the floor of Tomb E in Helena Mound C.
