Indian Mounds of Northeast Louisiana Trail Guide
 
Indians built mounds in Louisiana for about 5,500 years.  The mounds had many different shapes, sizes, and functions. The earliest sites had mounds with rounded tops. Later sites sometimes had flat-topped mounds with temples and chiefs' houses on them.  To learn more, visit the Indian Mounds of Northeast Louisiana Trail Guide Website or download the  Indian Mounds of Northeast Louisiana: A Driving Trail Guide Brochure.
