USGS Topo · Published 1994About this map
The West Protection Levee serves as a stark dividing line in this St. Martin Parish landscape, separating the structured Rice Field agricultural zones to the west from the wild, water-dominated Atchafalaya Basin Floodway to the east. Along the western edge, settlements like Catahoula and Coteau Holmes follow the winding banks of Catahoula Coulee, a pattern typical of Cajun prairie and bayou country where higher ground dictated human habitation. The Our Lady of the Lake Cem provides a local genealogical anchor for these communities.
