The Mound Builders - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

The varying cultures collectively called Mound Builders were Pre-Columbian inhabitants of North America who, during a 5,000-year period, constructed various styles of earthen mounds for religious and ceremonial, burial, and elite residential purposes. Since the 19th century, the prevailing scholarly consensus has been that the mounds were constructed by indigenous peoples of the Americas. Sixteenth-century Spanish explorers made contact with natives living in a number of later Mississippian cities, described their cultures, and left artifacts. This is Dr. George Bryce’s report and account of the mound builders, their tools and methodology for building the mounds in and around the Red and Rainy River in Manitoba, Canada.
