There are no written records about the purpose of these mounds, so the reasons for building them remain largely speculative.

They constructed several mounds on the bluffs above the river. The mounds are well preserved due to the efforts of some of the earliest American settlers in the area, thus the mounds at the park in in good condition.

Who were those people who left virtually no record of their existence but huge earthen mounds? Located in east-central Indiana, Mounds State Park holds an important key to better understanding the entire Midwest's prehistoric past. Studied by such notables as Eli Lilly, the site has only recently begun to reveal its secrets. Converted to a state park in October of 1930, the area has long been a place of mystery, supposition, and intrigue. This extremely well-preserved archaeological site contains several geometrically-shaped earthen mounds constructed well over 2,000 years ago -- some several feet tall, others only inches high. Uncover the park's past with this simple tale of history. Gain a greater knowledge of and appreciation for the people whose names we may never know, but who transformed the land in ways that no one has before or since.
