Ancient Architects of the Mississippi
Eight hundred years ago, the lower Mississippi Delta was home to some of the most highly organized civilizations in the world. There were roads, commerce, and metropolises anchored by awe-inspiring earthen monuments. Wonders of geometric precision, these earthworks were the centers of life. The first Europeans in the Delta, arriving in the 1500s, paid little attention to the mysterious earthworks. But curiosity began in earnest around 1848. Literary fantasies abounded, with a "moundbuilders theory" hypothesizing that a "people of great intelligence and skill" had simply disappeared. Today, little is left of the moundbuilders' legacy. Their earthworks have been plowed, pilfered, eroded, and built over. It is hoped that in understanding the contributions of these ancient Americans, it will become clear why we must preserve the rich heritage that remains along the banks of the lower Mississippi.
