Indian Mounds at Moundville, Alabama

On our way down to Greensboro from Tuscaloosa, we stopped off at Moundville to look at the amazing Indian mounds there.

We have seen Indian mounds before, all over the southeast, but never so many in one place. There are probably about 25 of them here, all within sight of each other, and all built the same way.

The site is on the Black Warrior River, and contains about 25 or so large Indian mounds. These mounds were built over a period of about 100 years by Indians of the Mississippian period.
