About Us:

One thousand years ago indigenous ?Mound People? thrived in the lower Arkansas Delta region, developing settlements and a network of trails and trade routes. Evidence that these people flourished in Pulaski County can be found at the Toltec State Park in Scott, Arkansas. European explorers described three Indian tribes living in Arkansas in 1690: the Osage in the Ozark Mountain area; the Caddo in the Ouachita and Coastal Plains area; and the Quapaw in the Delta Area. The three natural divisions converge in Pulaski County, and indigenous peoples traversed the area using a manmade trail system bordering the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains, running diagonally from northeast Arkansas to southwest Arkansas and intersecting with the Arkansas River. The area now bounded by Pulaski County became a central point for the movement of people and goods long before European explorers traversed the state.
