@sundogplanets

The book _A Universe Less Traveled_ about an alternate timeline in which an earthquake hits #StLouis, followed by reconstruction that unites the city, also features a thriving #Cahokia based on indigenous principles. Will have to check out this other take!

Most of the roads and #trails used by Native Americans did not make it into written history, but interestingly, one of the few that did is near me. Known as the Edwards Trace, it originally ran from #Cahokia near #StLouis to #Peoria #Illinois https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwards_Trace

A newly dated wooden monument reveals how far Cahokia’s reach extended—and how its monumental heart slowed by 1175 CE. The rise and fall of North America’s first city, told through one pole. #Archaeology #Cahokia #HumanOrigins #History https://www.anthropology.net/p/when-the-poles-fell-the-monumental

"Oral, archaeological, and written evidence all show that large populations survived in all of these places by adjusting how they lived, by creating smaller scale societies that in many ways worked better for people and their environments."

En el estado norteamericano de Illinois se encuentran los restos de Cahokia, un yacimiento arqueológico amerindio que fue una importante ciudad precolombina. Su historia se remonta al siglo VIII, o al menos eso sugieren los restos encontrados. Sus habitantes cultivaban maíz y trabajaban el cobre, y no fue hasta mediados del siglo X cuando se fundó el asentamiento de Cahokia, que atrajo a muchas personas de los alrededores, lo que lo convirtió en un importante centro de comercio. La ciudad estaba amurallada, y los edificios importantes estaban protegidos detrás de sus muros. Su declive llegó entre los años 1200 y 1400, cuando la población comenzó a abandonarlo, se piensa que por la sequía o por conflictos políticos. Protegidas por la UNESCO, sus pirámides verdes en los alrededores de la ciudad de San Luís esconden para siempre los misterios de la mayor civilización al norte del río Grande. Al más grande se le conoce como el Túmulo del Monje, y mide nada menos que 30,5 metros, sobre una base de 316 metros. Sin duda, fue un edificio importante.

“In its prime, #Cahokia was a prosperous city with a population similar to London’s. But this sprawling Native American metropolis from the #Mississippian culture vanished long before Europeans arrived in North America. What happened?”
