A River of Time: Archaeological Treasures of the Ocmulgee Corridor, Volume 2

Every year, thousands of visitors climb the tallest of the ancient Ocmulgee Mounds in Macon, Georgia. Gazing fifty-five feet down from the top of this Great Temple Mound gives a sense of the might and mystery of the earliest Southeastern American civilization. According to Dominic Day, the archaeological finds cover more than fifteen thousand years, the complete human record in the Southeast. While most are not included in the national historical park, this Mercer study makes a strong argument that many should be.
