Cahokia, City of the Sun
$13ea or 10 @ $87*
A thousand years ago, a
civilization more sophisticated and powerful than any other in the Western
Hemisphere, north of Mexico, grew and flourished in the rich Mississippi River
bottom land of Southwestern Illinois.
These
Native American people, who are called Mississippian by archaeologist,
supported a population as large as 20,000 at their peak, with a wide scale
agricultural economy based primarily on the cultivation of corn. The crops they grew, combined with the
regions bountiful wildlife and indigenous plants, to form a stable, year around
food supply. Such stability and ties to
the land gave rise to the formation of permanent settlements that grew into an
extensive network of communities with a regional center of metropolitan
proportions.
The remnants of the Mississippian central city, now know as
Cahokia, are preserved within the 2200-acre tract that is the Cahokia Mounds
State Historic Site, located eight miles east of St. Louis, Missouri. Cahokia was designated a World Heritage Site
in 1982, by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization.
