My brother-in-law remembered an interesting park he used to go to a lot as a kid. So we went on a field trip to the Town Creek Indian Mound.
The Indian Mound is believed to date from the 11th Century when a people we call the Pee Dee Nation lived in this area (no one knows what they called themselves). There is a temple on the mound, the center area was for games (the pole) and ceremonies, there was a building for burials, and another temple building. All the current buildings were, of course, rebuilt-- everything is based on extensive archeological studies.



Easton got some great naps out of all of our excursions...
