Prehistoric Gateway ... Present-day Enigma

The mounds at Spiro, Oklahoma, are among the most important archaeological remains in the United States. Artifacts from the mounds show that prehistoric Spiro people created a sophisticated culture which influenced the entire Southeast. There was an extensive trade network, a highly developed religious center, and a political system which controlled the region.Much of the Spiro culture is still a mystery, including the reasons for the decline and abandonment of the site.
