Late Archaic earthwork complex in northeastern Louisiana, constructed between approximately 1700 and 1100 BCE by hunter-gatherers — making it one of the largest pre-agricultural earthwork sites in the world. Six concentric C-shaped ridges with a maximum diameter of 1,200 metres and average height of 1.8 metres surround a central plaza; outside the ridges stand four mounds, the largest (Mound A) measuring 22 metres tall and 215 by 220 metres at the base. Estimated total volume of moved earth: 750,000 m³, hand-carried in basket loads. The site lies far from any major chiefdom; sourcing studies show stone tools and ornaments imported from points up to 1,600 km away across the eastern half of North America. Inscribed UNESCO World Heritage 2014.
Pre-agricultural foragers carrying earth in baskets built one of the largest mound complexes in the Americas, then disappeared without leaving a name.
