Log Text: My friend had downplayed the site so as not to ruin any exaggerated image I had in my mind. He did such a good job that I was astonished, forcing him to stop the car a half mile to the east, so I could get out and revel in the view from a distance before we arrived.

Angel Mounds - Mound A
Date Added: 12th Sep 2010
Site Type: Artificial Mound
Country: United States (Great Lakes Midwest)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Jun 2006
Angel Mounds - Mound A submitted by bat400 on 22nd Jun 2006. Mound A, the "Chief's" Mound, at Angel Mounds, Vanderburgh County, Indiana.
This view is from the south west. Stairs have been installed to allow a visitor to climb to the top of the mound while still preventing errosion. The main excavation at Angel was done by Glenn Black in the 1930's and 40's. He felt that differences in vegetation indicated that a wooden stairway had once existed in the mound on this face.

A view of the exterior. Directly behind the museum building is the footbridge to the large town site.
The building includes the museum, gift shop, WCs, and all you'd expect. But in a twist there are meeting rooms and a kitchen you can rent. Have your wedding and reception at a prehistoric site? You can do it!
