Duck River Cache

The Duck River Cache was the archaeological discovery of 46 Native American artefacts by a worker on a farm in Western Tennessee in 1894. It has been called "perhaps the most spectacular single collection of prehistoric Native American art ever discovered in the eastern United States" and included "two human statues representing the community's ancestral founding couple" and "nearly four dozen ceremonial stone knives, daggers, swords, maces, and other striking examples of prehistoric stonework".
