The Zebree Homestead is a prehistoric archaeological site in Mississippi County, Arkansas. The site contains evidence of a Late Woodland Period village, and is most significant as oldest known site of the Mississippian culture south of St. Louis. It appears to have been settled from Cahokia around 900 CE, with evidence of habitation and tool work, as well as a c. 1100 CE ditch and palisade.[2]

The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]
