Did you know that there were Indians in the time right after the Ice Age? One of the tribes was the Hopewell Culture. For burials, they made mounds and put the dead inside. Another tribe made a mound that looks like a snake. It's called Serpent Mound, and it has a coiled up tail and a wavy body. The mound was made of rocks, clay and dirt. The Indians leveled the ground and put rocks on it in the shape they wanted to make. Then they put the clay on top of the rocks and covered the clay with dirt so that grass would grow on it.
