Between AD 1000 and 1635, the inhabitants of southwestern Pennsylvania and portions of adjacent states - known as the Monongahela Culture or Tradition - began to reside in ring-shaped village settlements. These circular settlements consisted of dwellings around a central plaza. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of circular village forms.
