This site was formerly occupied by a Big Osage Indian village, and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It marks the place where the Osage were living between 1700-1775, when first encountered by European settlers and explorers. A self-guided trail takes visitors on a walking tour of this archaeological remnant of a former culture as well as offering outdoor learning exhibits pertaining to Osage life and history. The site is located nine miles east of Nevada near Walker, and six miles north of Hwy 54 on Hwy C, then west three miles on a gravel road.
