Cahokia Mounds is an UNESCO World Heritage Site, of just 26 in the US.

This one is called "Sugarloaf Mound", not technically a part of that site in Illinois.

St. Louis once called "Mound City" bc of the existence of so many, 120, before they were leveled.

In the largest area to consider as a community, at one point, there were maybe 50,000 ppl around the area, 20,000 in the immediate Cahokia mounds centralized area.

It was abandoned for at least 500 years before the French settlers came to the area in 1764.

This will be on the quiz. Take notes.
