"@JoshWatrous There were rectangular/square buildings there. When the building was burned down usually after an elite society member died the mound was built over it. Usually a new building was erected and the process repeated sometimes many times"

"The copper came from the Great Lakes area. These were involved in prolonged rituals related to the death journey and manipulating higher and lower "powers" for various purposes. (I think the "cube" was utilized in the rituals. Altered states were involved might be the simplest way to say it. But yeah some of the events that are said to have happened during such rituals are something out of science fiction. That specific topic is one I've written about but only along the edges. If I live long enough I plan on going to the core of it meaning to explain it. Of course I am often wrong. Not always"

"There are others that look at small portions of the state. The ones on this map are "sites" known in 1891. Sites almost always had numerous mounds and were often many mound complexes in relatively small areas. The journal "North Carolina Archaeology" has numerous maps of regions of the state"

"In 1891 Warren K. Moorehead's excavation team excavated mounds at the original Hopewell mound & earthworks site near Chillicothe Ohio. At the bottom of one mound they found a hardened cube of clay which Moorehead called an "altar." The written report related "It was not shipped and still lies in the mound boxed and covered with three feet of earth. This is mentioned since the boxed altar may be discovered by some future explorer." From: Moorehead 1922. Many similar cubes and rectangular blocks of clay were found in mounds all over the eastern half of the US during mound excavations"

"The 2000+ year old Adena burial mound in Round Hill Kentucky. Just an update: I've been busy finishing a different book (in my profession.) It's now done. I have not been able to post as much. The 3rd edition of the mound encyclopedia is also being worked on and it is coming along and my attention is now XXX% on it. I'm still hoping it'll be out by the end of the year.
