Wolf Rock Cave is best described as two small rock overhangs overlooking Bundick's Creek. It is the only known rock shelter in Louisiana used by its early people. It was used during the Late Archaic time period, and dates to 2500-1000 BC. It was used primarily as a lithic procurement area, in which the Archaic people collected chert from the area to make tools. There is also some evidence from the archaeological record that this area was used as a small habitation, that is some Archaic people lived here for short periods of time
