Adena Mounds near Plains ,Ohio and some Indian artifacts from the area
Some of these artifacts I believe were found at the mound complex. Most of the mounds and sacred circles and horsehoe style type mounds are gone converted to housing and farming. The earthworks are primarly part of the Adena culture. Video also shows sections of the Hocking River and river plain near the earthworks. The large tube pipe shaped object shown is an Adena culture device for blowing herbs and tobacco for healing ceremonies,probably possessed by an Adena shaman. The large chunk of copper is also a significant marker for the Adena Culture as it would also be for the Hopewell Culture. It is believed that both the Adena and Hopewell Culture existed in this area at the same period of history
