In northeastern Iowa, Effigy Mounds National Monument protects over 200 prehistoric earthen mounds, many depicting animal forms such as bears or birds. These were constructed between 500 BC and 1200 AD by indigenous moundbuilders of the Woodland period—some as burial sites, some with ritual significance. The site lies above the Mississippi River in a geologically unique region that remained ice-free during the last ice age and was settled early on. Today, the preserve is part of the National Park Service and an important site of cultural remembrance.
