On the Cover This stone palette was found in Pemiscot County, Missouri at the Campbell Site. It measures 7 ½” in diameter. It is made from highquality sandstone that exhibits fossils within the material. It has been highly polished and includes incised circles on both surfaces. It is scalloped on the rim, and the edge of each scallop has a centered “X” incised upon it (see photo below). This palette has been pictured in numerous publications through the years. It is presently curated by Dr. Sandy B. Carter, Jr. See article on page 21 of this issue. Photography by David H. Dye
