During their honeymoon, R.E. "Moon" Mullins and his lovely new bride, Irene, began the collection with three arrowheads found in Carersville, Georgia. By 1987, when "Moon" passed away, their collection had blossomed in thousands of pieces.
Housing over 50,000 pieces of authentic Native American artifacts is The Native American Artifacts Museum. Almost every time period of American Indian history is represented in this fascinating exhibit that took over 70 years to collect. From arrowheads and effigy pipes to bowls, celts and awls, this is one of the largest collections of its kind in North Carolina.
