Our chief reason for visiting Wilson was to see this museum and get my passport stamp.
The museum lined the walls of one room — and that was it.
Some guy named Hampson was working on his land and found the remains of an Indian village that existed from A.D. 1400 to 1650. He did some archeology himself and invited some pros. What they found is on display here — arrowheads and pottery mostly.
And more pottery.
This diorama explained the game of “Chunky.”
It all felt very similar to what I’d just seen at Plum Bayou and Parkin, the state’s other two archeological sites, and I’m not sure there’s a reason for the state to have three parks. We were in an out in less than half an hour.
