Ancient Burial Oto Sioux Burial Mound Nearly Destroyed by a Modern Burial in Marion, Indiana

 

Ancient Oto Sioux Burial Mounds Nearly Destroyed by a Modern Burial in Marion, Indiana





   A few years ago, I heard that a burial plot and stone had been purchased and was to be placed on an existing ancient burial mound within the IOOF cemetery in Marion, Indiana.  I called the cemetery and bluffed as to who I was and what I would do if they actually destroyed the burial mound with the result of the stone being moved.
     The burial was stopped and the strone removed, all is well with the ancient burial.
