Duck River Temple Mounds

Who knew? "In Tennessee there are four large and several smaller (Indian) mounds surrounding a large plaza called Duck River Temple Mounds near Hurricane Mills. A central mound flanked by 13 smaller mounds is called Mound Bottom near Kingston Springs. The earliest site in the state is called Obion Mounds near Parios and is also situated around a central plaza." Source – Sacred Places in North America by Brad Olsen, page 355.
