Between AD 700 and 1100 Native Americans built more effigy mounds in Wisconsin than anywhere else in North America, with an estimated 1,300 mounds at the center of effigy-building culture in and around Madison, Wisconsin. This book explores the cultural, historical, and ceremonial meanings of the mounds.
