Georgia, the largest U. S. state east of the Mississippi river, is filled with the remnants of over 12,000 years of human occupation. Explore the past and present of Native American heritage in Georgia by visiting any of our four current exhibits: Ancient Architects of Georgia, Public Indian Sites of Georgia, Public Indian Events of Georgia, & Georgia Before Oglethorpe.
In the Ancient Architects of Georgia exhibit you will learn about the various cities and monuments constructed by Georgia's Native American inhabitants before the arrival of Europeans. From the mysterious stone wall at Fort Mountain and Etowah's impressive earthen pyramid mounds in the north of the state, Ocmulgee's amazing pyramid temple mounds in the center of the state, and Kolomoki's artifact-rich funeral mounds in the south, you will discover that Georgia is host to a tremendous variety of American Indian historical sites.
