Barrow Cemetery in LaPorte County, Indiana.
A group of twenty-two burial mounds on a terrace along the south side of a small creek (100BC - 400AD). This is the type site for the Goodall Focus of the Hopewell tradition. The mounds have been dramatically reduced in size from plowing and both semi-professional excavations in the early 20thC and unorganized "pot hunting". However, recent geophyiscal testing has determined the location of the footprints of the largest mounds. Limited test plots determined that artifacts are still present.

Michigan's Norton Mounds are another example of a Goodall Focus site.

In 2007, the site was purchased by the Archaeological Conservancy.

Note: The location given is for LaPorte, the county seat of LaPorte County, where this site is found. There is no interpretation at the site, and no public access.
