Spruce Creek Mound Complex, Archaeological burial mounds in Port Orange, Florida.

Spruce Creek Mound Complex consists of multiple earthen mounds built from soil and shell material, positioned on a bluff overlooking the river. The structures reveal evidence of repeated settlement and use by different groups across a very long timespan.

The mound on the bluff above Spruce Creek was built between 500 and 1000 AD and enlarged over centuries, with layers of burials placed upon one another. It served as a ceremonial center and burial mound. By the early colonial period (1550-1700 AD) it was still tall enough to guide travelers, and European artifacts at the site suggest a village visited by Spanish explorers, traders or colonists.

The mound was used by Timucua people at the time of European contact; their shellfish-heavy diet left the large shell middens that make up much of the complex. Excavated early colonial artifacts from 1550–1700 AD suggest the site was among the villages visited by Spanish explorers, traders or colonists.

The complex lies on the southwest bank of Spruce Creek near Port Orange, with the main mound on a bluff above the water. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, so ground disturbance is prohibited; check with local heritage or parks contacts before planning a visit.

The main mound stood tall enough in early colonial years to serve travellers as a navigation landmark above Spruce Creek. It was built as a ceremonial centre and burial mound between roughly 500 and 1000 AD, with burial layers added over centuries.
