Recreation

Lake Jackson Mounds is the ancient site of a prominent political and religious sect. Important burial objects link archeologists to the past. Tribal leaders made residence along Lake Jackson establishing burial mounds and a plaza. Remains of the important tribal leaders adorned ornate items including cooper breastplates, shell beaded necklaces, bracelets, anklets and cloaks. These fabulous artifacts tell of ties with other prehistoric Indian tribes including those from Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, and even as far as Oklahoma.

Long after the Indians disappeared, Florida's first Surveyor General, Colonel Robert Butler, owned a portion of the property.

Visitors to Lake Jackson Mounds State Archaeological Site enjoy picnicking and viewing some of the most significant artifacts in Florida. Guided tours are available with advance notice.
