The correct response is "large earthen mounds built for religious purposes." These mounds are a significant archaeological indication of the Mississippian culture, which is known for its complex societies, elaborate construction, and religious practices. The mounds often served as platforms for temples and were central to the social and political life of Mississippian communities.
