From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clarence Bloomfield Moore (1852-1936) was an American archaeologist, son of Clara Jessup Moore, born in Philadelphia. He traveled in nearly every part of Europe, in Asia Minor, and in Egypt; crossed the Andes and went down the Amazon River in 1876; and made a trip around the world in 1878-79. During a period of 20 years he explored Indian mounds in nearly all the Southern States. His writings, for the most part published by the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, include Some Aboriginal Sites in Louisiana and in Arkansas (1913).
