Mound City
Just a few of the two dozen Hopewell Indian Mounds enclosed by earthworks at Mound City, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park in Chillicothe Ohio. One of the few dedicated areas specifically for internment. Unlike other prehistoric cites found in the state, the mounds found here were almost exclusively part of a burial complex.
