Tennessee Ancient Sites Conservancy was founded in 2001 to protect and educate about prehistoric and Native American sites in Tennessee. In 2002 we became a 501(c)3 non-profit in order to raise funds to work on our specific objectives and purposes:

• to educate the public (though classes, tours, articles, and events) about Tennessee’s early cultural history, with emphasis on Native American and prehistoric sites;
• to raise funds to provide permanent educational metal markers at significant Native American sites in Tennessee;
• to protect and physically care for important Native American sites in Tennessee;
• to sponsor preservation efforts to protect and physically care for such important ancient historical sites, including acquiring property & conservation easements for site protection.
