Thousands of years ago, Native Americans built giant earthen monuments throughout the Delta. Mound Builders Interactive takes visitors “underground” through a life-sized model of an ancient Native American burial mound. explorers will find pottery, weapons, bone tools and other artifacts found in actual archaeological digs.

The Wildlife Spotting and Photography Interactive exhibit features a camouflaged blind designed specifically for that purpose. Made of sticks, logs and camouflage netting, the blind is surrounded by a huge nature diorama. Inside the blind, you can look at the diorama through oversized binoculars and large-lens cameras to view lifelike illustrations of animals native to the Tunica County area.
