At this site was the village of Chief Car-A-Maue-Nee of the Winnebago Indians. Across the street was his Council House in the midst of seven effigy earth mounds representing animals. In this area were about ninety effigies and conical mounds, the second largest concentration of any location in the state. Starting near Fifth and Remington Streets, they formed an almost unbroken series south on Remington to Mound, westward on Mound and First to Rosaline, and eastward after crossing Second Street. South of the fairgrounds and College Avenue were eight effigies and twelve conical mounds. Effigies were the first and oldest, representing men, birds, and animals. Conical mounds were for burial purposes and of a more recent period.
