Have You Heard of Michigan’s Skull Cave?

Michigan has several historical places and landmarks but have you heard of Skull Cave? Michiganders had some fun things to say about this attraction.

Skull Cave

I was born in Michigan and lived here most of my life without hearing of Skull Cave until I saw it in a social media post. I found it is located on Mackinac Island. Skull Cave was used as a Native American burial site in the 18th century.

Skull Cave was not just a burial ground in 1763, it was believed to be used as a hiding place for fur trader Alexander Henry during Pontiac's War when Native Americans captured Fort Michilimackinac.

Recently a post was made on the Michigan Reddit page about Skull Cave and below is what Michiganders had to say.

Skull Cave sounds like a world you would choose when playing a video game.

I don't think anyone can explore Skull Cave since there are Native American skeletons inside but it would be cool to take a peak.

Glaciers are what carved out the Skull Cave in the first place.

I thought the cave got its name because it was shaped like a skull and disappointed when I saw the picture too.

It's a good place for a killer rabbit to hold up.
