Shannon AndersonMay 19, 2013really interesting to see these. hope to see the earthworks on the world heritage listings. important to keep areas like these for our future generations!
Built by the Hopewell and thriving during the Roman Empire, this is a very small piece of what were the largest earthworks in the world; some say the Stonehenge of the US.
These ancient Adena Earthworks are said to be haunted. Orbs are known to appear on photographs of the place. You may be lucky (or unlucky) enough to experience a spirit for yourself.- Well worth stopping by to explore the 10,000 year old indian mounds. The site is amazing!
- Check in to the Great Circle Earthworks and Museum this Memorial Day weekend to be entered to win an interactive CD of the Ancient Newark Eathworks.

The Great Circle Earthworks, formerly known as Moundbuilders State Memorial, was built by the Hopewell culture approximately 2000 years ago. The circle is nearly 1200 feet in diameter and was used as a vast ceremonial center by its builders.
