In 1962, Chickasaw Native American relics were discovered at the site and archeological excavations of the Mississippian mound complex were initiated. A recreated Native American village, Chucalissa, was built on the site in 1962. Chucalissa includes recreated temples and homes, preserved archeological excavations, a museum, and theater. The Chucalissa facility is operated by the University of Memphis and serves as a gateway for understanding archaeology and the interpretation of Native American history. Chucalissa is the site of the Choctaw Indian Heritage Festival held annually in August.
