Question

. In what parts of North America did the Mound Builders live? from the Great Lakes west to the Pacific Ocean from the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River in what is now southern Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and northern Arizona along the Atlantic coast

Answer 1

The Mound Builders primarily inhabited regions from the Great Lakes west to the Mississippi River and from the Appalachian Mountains to the Gulf of Mexico. This includes areas that are now parts of states such as Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. They are particularly known for their earthen mounds built for various purposes, including burial, ceremonial, and residential uses. Their culture was primarily concentrated in the eastern United States, not extending significantly to the Pacific Northwest or the southwestern states of Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, or northern Arizona. They did not primarily occupy areas along the Atlantic coast either.
