Archeological Site 3NW79 is a prehistoric pictograph site in the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest, in Newton County, Arkansas. It consists of a panel of twenty figures, set in a sheltered area. It is expected to contribute to the understanding of Mississippian cultures that lived in the area c. 1000-1500 CE. [2]
