Indigenous Americans dragged, carried or floated 5-ton tree more than 100 miles to North America's largest city north of Mexico 900 years ago Researchers have determined the age and origin of a massive tree that was found at the pre-Columbian city of Cahokia in what is now Illinois.

"The Mitchell Log is the largest marker post of its kind in Cahokia. Marker posts were important monuments in Cahokia, but researchers still aren't sure when the people of Cahokia erected and, finally, stopped placing these large logs."

Cahokia and Chaco Canyon: The Ancient Cities That Flourished in North America Two major urban centers flourished in pre-America during a time period that corresponds with the Middle Ages. Here's what's known about the rise and decline of these ancient metropolises.

Two of my favorite historical sites I’ve been to with different yet similar stories. Happy indigenous people day! #Cahokia #ChacoCanyon www.discovermagazine.com/cahokia-and-...

Triptych image. Left: a teacher points to a chalkboard that says “1492 Columbus Discovers America.” Middle: aerial view of a Mississippian mound surrounded by village huts and forest. Right: modern Indigenous woman in beige shirt, smiling gently. Text reads: “Our teachers taught us what they were given,” “But what if they were only handed part of the story?” and “Columbus shouldn’t be a blindfold — he should be a bridge.”

Columbus shouldn’t be a blindfold — he should be a bridge.
Indigenous civilizations built cities, calendars, and cultures long before 1492.
Reevaluation isn’t betrayal. It’s connection.

Will the Cahokia Interpretive Center *ever* re-open again? It's been closed for what feels like years. So sad.

Currently reading. Sorry for the thumb shadow. I’m reading Cahokia at work and I am very slowly working my way through Margins & Metropolis on weekends.
