Added to NRHPDecember 8, 1978

The Jere Shine Site is a prehistoric Mississippian site near the confluence of the Tallapoosa and Coosa rivers in modern Montgomery County, Alabama. Based on comparison of archeological remains and pottery styles, scholars believe that it was most likely occupied from 1400–1550 CE. In addition to its Mississippian-era Shine I-phase, it is the largest settlement associated with the Shine II-phase of the lower Tallapoosa River.[2] The 35-acre (14 ha) site contains five mounds and numerous shell middens. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 8, 1978.[1]
