During excavation in the early 1930's, the significant colors of the bisected Funeral Mound layers were revealed. Since the black and white photography of the period would not capture the colors, Dr. A.R. Kelly and his crew commissioned Mrs. Carolyn Smith Meriwether to depict the colors in this oil painting.
