Ka-Do-Ha Indian Village, Native American archaeological site in Murfreesboro, Arkansas.
Ka-Do-Ha is an archaeological site in Arkansas featuring preserved earthen mounds and displays of ancient artifacts within a sprawling outdoor setting. The grounds include a designated area where visitors can participate in supervised excavation activities and handle remnants of the past.
The settlement originated around 1000 and belonged to the Kadohadacho civilization that inhabited this region for centuries. It was rediscovered in 1964 and has since become a place where this community's history is accessible to visitors.
The site displays pottery, arrowheads, and jewelry that reflect the daily skills and traditions of the Kadohadacho people. Visitors can examine these objects closely and gain a sense of how inhabitants crafted and used these tools.
The site is open year-round, and visiting on mild weather days makes the outdoor digging experience more enjoyable. Wear comfortable shoes and bring sun protection, as you will spend considerable time outside exploring the grounds.
Visitors can dig for artifacts like arrowheads using real tools in designated fields on the property. This hands-on experience lets you try archaeological work yourself and potentially uncover genuine objects from the past.
