A presentation by Mike Linderman, Site Director of Angel Mounds

Located on the banks of the Ohio River in southwest Indiana, Angel Mounds State Historic Site is one of the best-preserved, pre-contact Native American sites in North America. Built between A.D. 1000 and 1450, the town was occupied by more than 1,000 people who were part of the Mississippian culture, and included earthen mounds built to elevate important buildings. Learn about the importance of this site from Mike Linderman, Site Director.
