Indian Mounds Lab

This lab was fun because we got to take a field trip to the indian mounds and see where the ancient people used to live. Macon is and was a prime spot for trade due to the ocmulgee river, making it a good place for early people to live. We walked through the woods and discussed the different layers of the forest floor due to decomposition and looked at a creek that had eroded away multiple layers of soil showing many different sol types.

Below are some pictures of the views from on top of the temple mound.
