The Indian Mound on the UT Institute of Agriculture campus was entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The formation is believed to date from the late Woodland period around AD 600–900. The white oak tree that stands on the mound was listed as a historic tree by the state of Tennessee in 2018 and named for UT President Harcourt Morgan, who had also served as dean of the College of Agriculture, director of the Agricultural Experiment Station, and as a professor of entomology and zoology.
