Description
Author Jeffrey Alan John explores the history, theories and fundamental Serpent Mound questions: What culture made it? Why? And when? Thousands of years ago, people in what would become southern Ohio encountered a vista they recognized as special. They couldn't know their view overlooked a 300-million-year-old crater, but as time passed, they made the plateau a resting place for generations of societies who eventually raised--with considerable planning and effort--the Great Serpent Mound, a place where history and mystery coincide. Uninhabited and overgrown when early Ohio settlers found it, the preserved effigy inspired pioneering archaeology and continues to prompt increasingly elaborate thinking. Scientists say it measures the calendar, while theologians and mystics ponder its spiritual meaning.
