A Name on a List

Every list of Ohio's mounds has entries like this one: a name, a county and a nearby town, and not much else. The Conrad Mound is a reminder that for many mounds, the record is as thin as a single line.

Behind each such line is a place people once buried their dead.

Behind the legend

Only the location is documented in the sources. The entry is included so that the list of Ohio mounds in this app is complete for the sites named in the Adena culture list.

If you go

See the Story Mound entry in Cincinnati for a better-documented mound nearby.
