Buffalo National River
	History | | | | | | | | |
	Many prehistoric and historic cultural sites are located in the park, some dating back more than 10,000 years.  These sites range from terrace village sites, to bluff shelters once occupied by Archaic Indians, to cabins built by early settlers.  In Boxley valley, Ozark farmers still live in harmony with the land.  Other areas, such as the Parker-Hickman Farmstead in Erbie, the Rush Mining District, the 1930s Collier Homestead at Tyler Bend, and the Civilian Conservation Corps structures at Buffalo Point, represent the progression of Buffalo River history.  Trails in these areas lead the hiker back in time to an era when the natural and cultural world were one. |
