I find it interesting to go to Native American cemeteries where there are mixed cultural symbols. This arrowhead-shaped gravestone in the Frances Slocum cemetery is not the only one of its kind I’ve seen, but the dream catcher behind it and the unique representation of the Christian cross hanging from the top caught my attention. I guess you could say the mixed symbolism in the cemetery is symbolic of the Miami people who live in the area.
The cemetery location is shown by the marker in the center of the map.
