The first mounds in America are now dated to 5700-years-ago and new sites are actually being reported every few years. This work is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to all major and significant Native American Indian mounds and earthwork sites in America including all existing major sites with public access. Specific locations and directions are listed as appropriate. Includes significant shell rings, Poverty Point sites, Adena, Hopewell, & Mississippian era sites and many on the National Historic Register with restricted access. Oversized hardcover book, 8.5 x 11 inches issued in green cloth with gold foil title stamping without paper cover jacket. Nearly 1000 sites, including alternate names of mounds and locations, are included in descriptions. Arranged alphabetically by state with extensive index of site locations and names. Contains 515 photos (both old and recent), illustrations, and maps drawn for many sources. Includes 75 completely new mound & earthwork site recreations by archaeological artist Dee Turman.
