These 2,000-Year-Old Mounds Trace the Path of the Moon After spending the last century as a golf course, the Octagon Earthworks are now protected—and celebrated—for their ancient Native American origins.

"Their significance has been compared to that of Stonehenge and the pyramids in Giza. After more than a decade of negotiating, the Ohio History Connection took over the lease and opened the sacred landmark to the public."
