1983 Map of Shellmound
USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Mississippi Valley State University anchors the southern portion of this Mississippi Delta landscape, situated just west of Itta Bena. The region is defined by the winding course of the Tallahatchie River and the Yazoo River, which create a complex network of oxbows and swampy depressions like Ashland Brake and Roebuck Lake. The agricultural character of the era is evident in the numerous pumping stations and flumes distributed among the rice fields and landing strips that dot the riverside.
