"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?”

Monks Mound, the largest Pre-Columbian earthwork in the Americas, at Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site in #Illinois.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahokia

This mound might not look like much to us today, but it’s the largest prehistoric earthwork in the Americas—part of a #vibrant community often called “America’s Oldest City.”
Around AD 1150, Cahokia was the largest prehistoric community north of Mexico, with as many as 20,000 residents (larger than most European cities). #opcWeeklyTheme 📷

I ( @arielkroon ) recently listed to the audiobook version of "Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age" by @annaleen I honestly think that it’s a book that every solarpunk (especially those of you into city planning and urbanism) should read! It’s free to read over on our Patreon; I’d really like you to go take a look!

Argh, trying to plan a little trip and the visitor center at #Cahokia Mounds (the remnants of an ancient pre-Columbian North American city near St. Louis) is still closed for renovations... Closed since March 2022, although the site is still open, it's just not the same without that extra background #STL
