The shell tempering — the use of crushed marine shell as an additive to clay — is itself a characteristic of Mississippian pottery and one of the markers that archaeologists use to identify sites connected to the Mississippian cultural tradition.

Chipped stone tools — scrapers, knives, projectile points — appear throughout the residential zones in quantities that indicate domestic production and use.

Ground stone tools — grinding stones and mortars — were used in food processing, particularly in the processing of corn into meal and flour.

The distribution of these tools across residential areas suggests that food preparation was a domestic activity, carried out in individual households rather than centralized.

Evidence of craft production appears in specific areas of the site, sometimes in concentrations that suggest workshop areas where particular goods were produced in quantity.
