The Moundbuilders Dennis Rees Teacher-Consultant Arizona Geographic Alliance

The Moundbuilders were an ancient people who lived along the rivers and streams in the eastern and southern United States. They consisted of 3 consecutive cultures: the Adena, the Hopewell, and the Mississippian. They are the ancestors of the modern Native Americans who live in those areas today.

This is where their settlements were located.

Their settlements may have looked like this in ancient times.

Their mounds were used for burial, religious ceremonies, and housing.
