Historical Marker
Landerneau Mounds
Hebert, Caldwell County · Louisiana
These mounds are on private land, and the site is on the National Register of Historic Places with its address withheld from the public listing, which is the reason to stay on the State Highway 133 right-of-way and look from there. The village here dates to about AD 500, a little before the Coles Creek centers along the Ouachita, which flourished from about 700 to 1200 and grew out of the earlier Troyville culture. The Register listing dates to January 14, 1999.
