Ancient Aztalan
Lake Mills

The "Princess" mound is also on the museum grounds. The burial has no known parallel in Wisconsin for a ancient female. She was wrapped with three beaded belts containing more than 1,900 shell beads total. The beads used were chiefly discoidal ones made evidently from the shells of the river clam, though several short, tubular beads, probably made from the columella of the Gulf Coast shell, were found. White sand was put over her grave at ground level before the mound was built.
