Ocmulgee Indian Mounds: A Great American Story 1 Field Trip!

While we were on vacation in Georgia, we took a little side field trip to "Indian Mounds". We viewed an excellently well preserved earth lodge, which has been reconstructed at the top, and hiked to the top of a huge "Temple" mound. Enjoy the slide show! This field trip fit in very well with our American Story 1 study, particularly since we just read about pre-Columbian cultures.

The mounds are called the Ocmulgee Indian Mounds, and they are located in Macon, Georgia.  Here is a website with more information about them.  http://lostworlds.org/ocmulgee_mounds/
