University of Tennessee Agriculture Farm Mound
University of Tennessee Agriculture Farm Mound, Archaeological site in Knox County, United States
The University of Tennessee Agriculture Farm Mound contains Native American earthworks located at the intersection of Joe Johnson Drive and Chapman Drive.
Constructed during the Woodland period around 644 AD, this burial mound represents ancient engineering practices of indigenous communities in Tennessee.
The Eastern Cherokee tribe collaborated with the university to establish protective gardens, incorporating traditional Native American elements into the landscape design.
Visitors can access the archaeological site within the University of Tennessee campus grounds, where informational panels explain the mound's features.
In 2011, the Department of Plant Sciences created specialized gardens surrounding the mound to prevent construction damage and preserve the archaeological structure.
