   • 1999, Clarence Bloomfield Moore, Jeffrey M. Mitchem, The West and Central Florida Expeditions of Clarence Bloomfield Moore, page 25:

     Willey (1949:324) suggested that this mound probably dates to late Weeden Island times, though the bird head rim adorno (Luer 1992a:54, Figure Id; Moore 1903:Figure 63) might indicate a Safety Harbor component.
