The Pharr Mounds were constructed around 2,000 years ago by Hopewellian Native people. This a striking cluster of eight dome-shaped mounds spread across 90 acres in northeastern Mississippi was once part of a thriving village. Sitting at the heart of an ancient trade network that stretched from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, the city drew in copper, mica, greenstone, and shell through a well maintained network of trails. Locals and travelers alike came here to trade and take part in ceremonies, making the site both a cultural hub and a sacred space. These carefully crafted mounds have stood the test of time, serving as powerful symbols of community, spirituality, and resilience. For the modern Chickasaw Nation, Pharr Mounds remains a sacred place and many still visit today as a pilgrimage to reconnect with their ancestral homeland.
