Mound-Builders

by William J. Smyth

About this book

Smyth examines the earthworks and burial mounds of North America, describing their construction, contents, and possible origins. The account considers what these remains suggest about the people who built and used them.

Descriptions of sites and artifacts lead into questions about settlement, movement, and the relationship between ancient communities. The book follows the author’s proposed connections between the surviving structures and their makers.
