Ocmulgee Indian Mounds

The Ocmulgee Indian Mounds are preserved as a national monument. It has been said that humans have inhabited the site for 17,000 years. It is a sacred site of the Mississippian Indians. It includes a burial site and an earth lodge. The Mississippian Indians still consider it sacred land today. It makes me very sad that we took this land away from the Mississippian Indians.
