Dating between AD 1000 and 1450, the archaeological site includes at least eight mounds and more than 100 houses. It is unique in that the land has never been plowed, so visitors can walk around the area and find the collapsed remains of 800-year-old houses and the 900-meter-long palisade with bastions that protected the village in prehistoric times. Although its location within a National Park boundary has protected the area from the recent ravages of man, riverbank erosion began to undermine the site in the 1970s. In the mid-1990s, Paul Welch began a four-year investigation culminating in a comprehensive report to the National Park Service on the Shiloh Indian Mounds.These published findings confirm that the Shiloh site was one of at least fourteen Mississippian mound sites located within a 50 km area and that Shiloh was abandoned in approximately AD 1450. It also establishes other parameters for the Shiloh archaeological phase. This current volume is intended to make information about the first 100 years of excavations at the Shiloh site available to the archaeological community....4192236Archaeology at Shiloh Indian Mounds, 1899-1999516717https://www.gandhi.com.mx/archaeology-at-shiloh-indian-mounds--1899-1999-9780817384593/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3461258/c5d006bb-4f00-4e8c-9a8c-52f246183a67.jpg?v=638385406185800000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20109780817384593_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9780817384593_One hundred years of archaeological excavations at an important American landmark, the Shiloh Indian Mounds archaeological site, a National Historic LandmarkThe Shiloh Indian Mounds archaeological site, a National Historic Landmark, is a late prehistoric community within the boundaries of the Shiloh National Military Park on the banks of the Tennessee River, where one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War was fought in April 1862.
