Excerpt from Contributions to the Archaeology of Missouri, Vol. 1: By the Archaeological Section of the St. Louis Academy of Science; Pottery The lines of cypress swamps and bayous which stretch from north to south between these ri oes are from two to twenty miles wide and twenty to forty long. The most important are the St. James Bayou on the east, the Bayou St. John, Little River, and a number of small swamps and connecting streams adjoining the St. Francois River on the west. Besides these there are a number of smaller swamps parallel to and connected with them. They all sustain a heavy growth of cypress, sour gum, water locust, with some red and white maple, pin and Spanish oaks, besides a great variety of small shrubs and water plants which add every year new deposits of vegetable mould to the already rich though at present useless soil.
