Artificial Mound in Blakely County, Georgia.
Mound B is the smaller of the two temple mounds at the Etowah Mounds site, 7m (23 feet) tall. It faces east, like Mound A, and likewise supported a wood structure, most likely a temple. It is just a few metres to the south-south-west of Mound A. It has not been excavated.
