The Fascinating Story Of A Lost City And An Unprecedented Civilizationalmost A Thousand Years Ago, A Native American City Flourished Along The Mississippi River Near What Is Now St. Louis. Cahokia Was A Thriving Metropolis At Its Height With A Population Of Twenty Thousand, A Sprawling Central Plaza, And Scores Of Spectacular Earthen Mounds. The City Gave Rise To A New Culture That Spread Across The Plains; Yet By 1400 It Had Been Abandoned, Leaving Only The Giant Mounds As Monuments And Traces Of Its Influence In Tribes We Know Today.In Cahokia, Anthropologist Timothy R. Pauketat Reveals The Story Of The City And Its People As Uncovered By The Dramatic Digs Of American Cornbelt Archaeologists. These Excavations Have Revealed Evidence Of A Powerful Society, Including Complex Celestial Timepieces, The Remains Of Feasts Big Enough To Feed Thousands, And Disturbing Signs Of Largescale Human Sacrifice.Drawing On These Pioneering Digs And A Wealth Of Analysis By Historians And Archaeologists, Pauketat Provides A Comprehensive Picture Of What'S Been Discovered About Cahokia And How These Findings Have Challenged Our Perceptions Of Native Americans. Cahokia Is A Lively Read And A Compelling Narrative Of Prehistoric America.
