Hopewell Culture National Historical Park
Overview
Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is managed by National Park Service and is located near Chillicothe, Ohio. Nearly 2000 years ago, American Indians built dozens of monumental mounds and earthen enclosures in southern Ohio. These earthwork complexes were ceremonial landscapes used for feasts, funerals, rituals, and rites of passage associated with an American Indian religious movement that swept over half the continent for almost 400 years. Come walk among the earthworks and experience the past.
