Hopewell culture is the term used to describe common aspects of the Native American culture that flourished along rivers in the northeastern and midwestern United States from 200 BC to 400 A.D.   Hopewell culture is known for its flamboyant burial ceremonialism, diversified material culture, and most importantly, exchange between other communities. The Hopewell employed native copper, silver, mica, meteoric iron, obsidian and a large variety of exotic materials in their tools, weapons and material goods. Many of the exotic materials utilized by the Hopewell were obtained via a vast network of trade.  We try to describe items to the best of our ability,  however the buyer accepts all responsibility for verifying  the authenticity of the items purchased.  We assume no responsibility for the authenticity or the suitability for any purpose of any item.
