A wide landscape photograph of a massive open cut coal mine in Leigh Creek. The steep, terraced walls of the pit show distinct horizontal layers of grey and black rock. At the very bottom of the excavation, a pool of stagnant, lime green water sits in a small basin. The foreground is composed of rough, dark rubble. The sky above is a clear, pale blue, and the distant horizon is flat and arid. A small white logo is visible in the bottom right corner.

A deep green heart within the carved earth.

Went to the Newark Earthworks Mounds today for a much needed history lesson!
Honestly it was really cool and the restoration was really well done along with the museum they had! With @bio-zuzu.bsky.social

Frankly, I'd use earthworks, plants & animals (esp. beavers) to recharge water tables, regreen watersheds, incr. wetlands, trap sediment to stop erosion. Basic #Earthworks #Terraforming strategies. Keyline plowing, too. Grow enough for cows, buffalo, antelope & more. Yields more than cows.

The Great Mound in Anderson, Indiana Among the ten earthwork formations in Mounds State Park, there is only one Great Mound—appropriately named. Earthworks are monumental structures built from shaped earth, often used by ancient cultures for ritual, burial, or astronomical purposes. The Great Mound is the largest in Indiana, a circular enclosure nearly a quarter mile in circumference, with an embankment rising nine feet high. Over time, theories about its purpose ranged from burial site to religious amphitheater, with some even suggesting Egyptian builders, a lost tribe of Israel, or ancient astronauts. Archaeological evidence, including charcoal remains, dates the mound to roughly 160–120 B.C., placing it in the pre-Columbian era and attributing its construction to the Adena culture, famed for their earthworks across Ohio, West Virginia, and beyond. Today, the Great Mound is believed to be part of a vast astronomical alignment. From its center, the sun sets directly over nearby Fiddleback Mound on the summer solstice, while the winter solstice, equinoxes, and several bright stars could also be tracked from this vantage point.
