The Mississippi Mound Trail is a driving tour of 33 sites adjoining U.S. Route 61 where indigenous peoples of the Mississippi Delta built earthworks.[1] The mounds were primarily built between 500 and 1500 AD,[2] but are representative of a variety of cultures known as the Mound Builders. Each site has a historical marker and is accessible by road.[3]
Opened in 2016,[1] the trail was a joint venture between the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the Mississippi Department of Transportation and various other stakeholders.[4]
