Mound 29

This large Middle Woodland ceremonial mound, probably dating to A.D. 1-300, stands 12 feet high with a base approximately 160 feet by 170 feet. Like Mound 28 to the north, it is located about 3300 feet from the centrally located Sauls Mound. The Solar Calendar hypothesis suggests that it may have been built in this specific location to mark the Equinox sunrises on March 21 and September 21 as viewed from Sauls Mound.
