Located just southeast of Evansville, Indiana, Angel Mounds State Historic Site preserves the remains of a thriving Mississippian‐period community that existed from around AD 1100 to 1450. Across more than 600 acres you can explore earthen platform mounds, plazas, and palisade walls, much of which has been interpreted through excavations that uncovered thousands of artifacts. You can tour a new interpretive center, walk the roughly 1½-mile loop trail around the site, view reconstructions of palisade sections, and immerse yourself in how people then lived, farmed, and organized their society. Angel remains a sacred and well-preserved window into pre-Contact Native American culture on the Ohio River.
