What is Image-Based Assessment of The Haywood and Mount Pisgah Bear Sculptures about?

The assessment of the Haywood and Mount Pisgah bear sculptures reveals that most bears visibly contact a carved base, but do not have a separate altar. The sculptures are attributed to the Pisgah phase (ca. A.D. 1000–1450) based on archaeological evidence, though material composition could affect dating. While ritual interpretation is plausible, the evidence does not conclusively support the idea that these bases function as altars.
