Before the Smithsonian existed and began their mound investigations (and even during its beginning), there was Henry R. Schoolcraft.

There were several of these on both sides of the river and they are believed to have been used as observation and signal sites. If you look at the middle right side, the large Grave Creek Mound is shown.
