It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a State Natural Area〔(Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation ) Big Bone Cave Natural Area〕 managed by Rock Island State Park. It is named for the discovery of the bones of a giant ground sloth in 1811. The cave was operated as a saltpeter mine, notably during the War of 1812 and the American Civil War. A variety of natural remains and human artifacts has been well preserved in the dry atmosphere of the cave. The cave is the 7th longest mapped cave in Tennessee.
