Today it was time to continue our exploration of Georgian historic sites and state parks with a visit to the Etowah Indian Mounds around forty minutes drive north of Atlanta. The six flat-topped earthen knolls were used from about 900-1550 A.D. as dwellings, mortuary ground and temple areas. The site also has a museum full of archeological finds from the area, and a nature trail which we all enjoyed despite the very hot temperatures.
