- FOREWORD
-
-
-This booklet is issued by the Ohio State Archæological and Historical
-Society in response to a demand for a brief outline of the main features
-of prehistoric archæology in Ohio.
-
-While intended primarily for use of students in the elementary schools,
-it is hoped that visitors to the Museum, and the general public, as well
-as collectors of archæological material, and students of prehistory, may
-find the brief summary contained herein of interest and value.
-
-Since types of archæological specimens are fairly similar throughout the
-area east of the Rocky Mountains, and particularly within the general
-Mound area, the information contained in this summary is broadly
-applicable even outside the boundaries of the state of Ohio. Further,
-since the course of human development has been basically the same the
-world over, the simple series of local “relics” selected for this study
-will serve to illustrate how, through countless centuries of pioneering,
-human beings have advanced from savagery to civilization, thus making
-for understanding and appreciation of the present time.
-
-The wealth of material on display and in the study collections at the
-Ohio State Museum will serve as an inexhaustible laboratory in further
-pursuit of the subject by those who may be so inclined.

-
- THE MOUND-BUILDERS AND THE INDIANS
-
-
-When white settlers first entered the country north and west of the Ohio
-River, from which later on the state of Ohio was to be carved, they
-found here, as everyone knows, the Indians. When we pause to consider
-that Ohio today is one of the greatest states in the Union, it is hard
-to believe that this happened less than two centuries ago. However, the
-story of the Indian tribes that white men found living on Ohio soil when
-they arrived is a part of Ohio history, and will not be dwelt upon in
-this booklet. For the present we are concerned only with the people who
-lived in Ohio before the historic Indians, and we may refer to them as
-the first Ohioans.
-
-
- THE FIRST OHIOANS
-
-White people had not been on Ohio soil very long before they began to
-notice peculiar mounds and fortifications built of earth and stone.
-Evidently these were very ancient, as they were overgrown by the forest.
-The Indian inhabitants were neither building nor using such structures,
-nor could they tell the white settlers anything about them. A bit of
-digging, here and there, soon showed that the mounds contained human
-burials and that with these were strange relics. Hence it was clear that
-they had been built by human beings. But by whom? The settlers reasoned,
-very naturally, that if the tribesmen living in the region had not
-constructed them, then they must have been built by a people preceding
-the Indians. And so, lacking a better name, they called them “The
-Mound-builders,” just as we of today, viewing the few remaining log
-cabins scattered over the countryside, might call the pioneers “The
-Cabin-builders.” The settlers, however, who built and lived in the log
-cabins of pioneer days, realized the value of records, so that people
-who came after them might know who they were and what they did. And so
-they wrote history. But the Mound-builders had not yet progressed far
-enough on the road to civilization to do this; and so we must look
-elsewhere for the answers to those questions which naturally come into
-our minds. Who were the Mound-builders? Where did they come from, and
-when; why did they build Mounds; and what became of them? The pioneer
-settlers who first noticed the Mounds could not open a book and read the
-answers to these queries. But as the years have passed, the puzzles have
-been solved in a most interesting manner, as we shall see presently.
-
-To begin with the Mounds and Earthworks themselves, it may be said that
-there are many thousands of them. They are scattered over 20 or more
-states, from the Mississippi River eastward to the Atlantic and
-extending southward to the Gulf and into Florida. Ohio, it may be truly
-said, was the center of Mound-builder life, as a result of which it has
-come to be known as the Mound-builder state. More than 5,000 Mounds,
-fortifications and other remains of these interesting people have been
-located within its bounds.
-
-
- ANCIENT MOUNDS AND EARTHWORKS
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 2—The Miamisburg Mound.]
-
-A glance at the outline map on page 4 shows the location of these
-ancient works. It will be noted that the southern one-half of the state
-was the favored region, especially along the courses of the streams and
-rivers flowing southward to the Ohio. An automobile trip through
-southern Ohio affords an excellent outing or vacation, and makes it
-possible to see the actual Mounds and other structures of the long ago.
-Some of them, the tourist will note, are merely heaps of earth, more or
-less pointed at the top and ranging from slight elevations, hardly
-noticeable above the surface of the fields, to others as much as twenty,
-thirty, or even forty feet in height. The tallest Mound of this kind in
-Ohio is the great Miamisburg Mound, near the town of that name, in
-Montgomery County, which is 70 feet high and covers nearly three acres
-of ground. These conical Mounds, as they are called, are shaped like a
-chocolate drop. They are far more numerous than any other kind of
-earthen structures and, as we shall see presently, they served as
-monuments to the dead; that is, they were burial mounds—tombstones.
-
-Next in point of numbers are the ancient fortifications, built as means
-of protection from enemies. Usually they are the more or less level tops
-of hills or plateaus, with steep slopes and ravines offering ready-made
-obstructions to the approach of enemies. Around the edges of the area
-set aside for the “fort” earthen and stone walls were thrown up, and
-probably wooden pickets or stakes were set into these as further
-protection from without. Among the largest and finest of these old
-fortifications in Ohio are the noted Fort Ancient, in Warren County, and
-Fort Hill, in Highland County.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 3—The Walls of Fort Ancient.]
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 4—Map of Fort Hill, Highland County, Ohio.]
-
- FORT HILL, HIGHLAND COUNTY, OHIO.
- _Surveyed by E. G. Squier & F. H. Davis, 1846._
- SCALE 500 ft. to the inch.
-
-Fort Ancient, perhaps the greatest prehistoric fortification in the
-United States, is permanently preserved as one of Ohio’s State
-Memorials. It consists of two principal divisions, known as the Old Fort
-and the New Fort, the two being connected by a narrow passageway
-enclosed within earthen walls.
-
-Fort Hill, in Highland County, is not as large as Fort Ancient, but is
-finely preserved, very bold in outline, and most picturesquely located.
-
-Other important Fortifications are Glenford Fort, in Perry County; Miami
-Fort, near the mouth of the Great Miami River; and Spruce Hill, in Ross
-County.
-
-There is another type of earthwork, resembling somewhat the old forts,
-but which served a different purpose. We shall learn more of these in
-connection with Hopewell culture Mounds, to be described later.
-
-In addition to the Mounds and Earthworks, the Mound-builders left behind
-them many burial grounds or cemeteries, and numerous village or town
-sites. Usually the two are found together, and often the burial mounds
-are near-by. In the village sites there may be found, usually beneath
-the plow line in cultivated fields, the remains of rude streets, house
-foundations, fireplaces, and countless numbers of relics lost or thrown
-aside by the residents of the site, centuries ago. From these relics a
-good idea of the people and their life may be gained through study. Some
-of the principal village-sites and cemeteries explored by the Ohio State
-Museum are the Baum and Gartner sites, in Ross County, and the Feurt
-village-site, in Scioto County. The largest of all the Ohio village
-sites is known as the Madisonville site, located near Cincinnati.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 5—The Great Serpent Mound, Adams County, Ohio.]
-
-Certain prehistoric remains of great interest are the Effigy Mounds,
-so-called because they were built in the effigy or image of birds and
-animals. The finest of these in Ohio is the Great Serpent Mound, of
-Adams County. Another interesting effigy mound is the Opossum Mound,
-near Granville, Ohio.
-
-The Effigy Mounds are believed to have represented the totems or clan
-symbols of their builders. Thus the Great Serpent Mound may have been
-the totem of the Serpent or Snake tribe. They also very likely played a
-part in the religion of the people who built them, as most primitive
-people appear to worship natural objects.
-
-Although most of the Effigy Mounds are found in southern Wisconsin, the
-Great Serpent Mound is the largest and finest known.
-
-
- THE ARCHÆOLOGIST AND HIS WORK
-
-All that we have seen and learned of the Mounds and Earthworks, up to
-this point, is merely what anyone, by using his eyes, might see and
-learn; in fact, just what the pioneers observed. In other words we have
-looked at them from the outside, without knowing the secrets buried
-inside them. And now, since the Mound-builders left no written history
-behind them, we must get acquainted with another branch of science in
-order to obtain the information we desire. This new science is known as
-Archæology, and the man or woman who works at it is called an
-archæologist. Archæology is really the science of old things; that is,
-it concerns itself with the things which human beings did before they
-became intelligent enough to write and leave behind them their own
-histories. Since he has no intentional records to guide him, the
-archæologist depends mostly on exploration or digging into ancient ruins
-and remains for his information. Thus he finds the rude relics of
-by-gone ages, relics lost or thrown away by their one-time users, and
-from these he pieces together the story of a people.
-
-Having met the archæologist, we may now get an insight into the
-interiors of the mounds, cemeteries and village-sites of the
-Mound-builders. Let us go ahead of our story for a moment and explain
-that archæologists, as a result of their explorations, have found that
-there were numerous kinds, or cultures as he calls them, of
-Mound-builders. While all of them were closely related, and belonged to
-the same race, they differed greatly among themselves in manners and
-customs. Some of them were rather highly advanced in their civilization,
-while others were rather backward, just as is true of the various tribes
-and nations of Indians of later or historic times. With some of them the
-trait or habit of building mounds was very important while with others
-it was only a sort of “side-line.” Some of them merely placed their dead
-upon the surface and piled earth above the remains to form a Mound,
-while others prepared carefully made tombs of logs within the Mound for
-the dead. Some were skilled in the use of copper and silver, the weaving
-of cloth and the making of potteryware, while others contented
-themselves with only flint and stone and the simpler arts of living.
-
-
- VARIOUS KINDS OF MOUND-BUILDERS
-
-In Ohio alone there were three outstanding kinds or cultures of
-Mound-builders, besides several less important ones. These three are
-known as the Fort Ancient, the Adena and the Hopewell cultures, taking
-their names from the places where their Mounds were first examined and
-identified. The Fort Ancient peoples were the least advanced of the
-three, yet they were the most numerous and prosperous of the prehistoric
-peoples of Ohio. Their old village-sites are numerous in the southern
-half of the State, as at the Baum, Gartner and Feurt sites, and always
-are accompanied by burial Mounds and cemeteries. A number of them have
-been explored by the Ohio State Museum where the relics are on display.
-They used no metals and had but little art, but they made many useful,
-practical things of flint, stone, bone, shell, clay and wood.
-
-Adena peoples were more highly advanced than the Fort Ancient but were
-not nearly so numerous. They worked copper into ornaments and were
-highly artistic in carving stone and bone. They are noted for their
-large shapely mounds, the great Miamisburg Mound being an example.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 6—The Seip Group of Earthworks, Ross County,
- Ohio.]
-
-The Hopewell peoples were not only the most highly advanced in Ohio, but
-in many respects in the entire country north of Mexico. They are noted
-for their many mounds, usually occurring in groups, and for the peculiar
-earthworks or enclosures in groups, earlier in this booklet. These
-earthworks or enclosures are known as “Geometric Enclosures,” because
-they are built in geometric forms, such as circles, squares, crescents,
-and so forth. They differ from the fortifications in that they were used
-for social and religious purposes rather than for defense. Important
-examples of Hopewell works are the Hopewell Group, in Ross County; the
-Mound City Group, within Camp Sherman, Chillicothe; the Seip Group, near
-Bainbridge, Ross County; the great works at Newark, the Marietta works,
-and others. The Mound City, the Newark and the Seip Groups are now State
-Memorials and those at Marietta are preserved by local interests.
-
-
- THE INSIDE STORY OF A MOUND
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 7—Exploring the Seip Mound, Ross County, Ohio.]
-
-No doubt every reader of this booklet would like to take part in the
-actual “digging” of a mound. This, of course cannot be, since the actual
-exploration of a large Mound requires months and even years. But perhaps
-we can do the next best thing; perhaps we can take part in an imaginary
-examination of a Mound, and in that way get an idea of how it is done
-and of what is found. Supposing we select a Mound of the interesting
-Hopewell culture. The Hopewell peoples, as we have seen, were very
-highly advanced and this fact, therefore, might lead the reader to
-expect too much of the other cultures, yet if we keep this in mind we
-will be on the safe side.
-
-Let us imagine that our Mound is located in Ross County, in the charming
-Paint Creek Valley, somewhere near old Chillicothe, first capital of
-Ohio and ancient capital of the Mound-builders. Before us stands a mound
-of earth, 125 feet in diameter at its base and 25 feet in height. The
-field in which it stands is under cultivation but the mound itself,
-being too steep for farming purposes, is covered by a thicket of
-shrubbery and trees. An exploration party has arrived on the scene and
-is preparing to examine this ancient earthwork.
-
-Workmen with picks and shovels step to the edge of the Mound and begin
-to dig, throwing the loose earth well behind them. The “boss” explains
-that the entire mound is to be removed by slicing it off, as a cake
-might be, in five-foot sections. We note surveying instruments, cameras,
-notebooks, everything in readiness. Teams and scrapers are waiting to
-take away the loose earth after it has been carefully examined.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 8—Burials in the Hopewell Mounds, Ross County,
- Ohio.]
-
-The first of the five-foot slices having been removed there appears, at
-the level of the surrounding field, what looks like a cement floor. At
-the outer edge of this and following the curve of the mound we see post
-holes a foot or two apart in some of which are decayed posts. These post
-holes prove to the explorer that this Mound was built by the Hopewell
-peoples. When a Hopewell Culture band or tribe picked a site for a new
-home, he explains, one of the first things it did was to set aside a
-place for the burial of its dead and for worship, a sacred place. After
-clearing this spot of all underbrush and trees, the top-soil was removed
-and in order to make a firm floor they plastered this over with clay. On
-top of that was placed an inch or two of sand or fine gravel for a
-floor-covering. The next step was to secure some posts and set them in
-the ground around the edge of this area to form a wall. Twigs and
-branches of trees were woven among these and plastered with clay to keep
-out cold and rain. A thatched roof made of closely woven twigs and
-boughs was placed over it and the sacred temple was complete. Into this
-they brought their dead for funeral ceremonies, burial and cremation.
-
-Our attention is suddenly called to the actual work at hand. A laborer
-has struck his mattock into a loose spot in the face of the Mound. We
-are informed that this will be a burial and, sure enough, within an hour
-a human skeleton has been unearthed and lies there on the floor all
-ready to have its picture taken. The Hopewell people, we learn, made
-platforms of earth a few inches above the floor and after placing their
-dead on these they built cabin-like structures of logs over them and
-covered these, in turn, by small mounds of earth.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 9—Crematory Basin in a Hopewell Mound.]
-
-And now we come to the second burial which appears in every way like the
-first, excepting that instead of a skeleton there is merely a “hatful”
-of burned bones and ashes. This we are informed is a cremated burial. We
-can see no evidences that a fire has burned here and we are curious to
-learn how the ashes and charred bones came to be so carefully placed in
-a small heap. These questions are answered when we find near-by a little
-rectangular basin of baked clay, shaped something like a cement horse
-trough, built into the floor. In this basin they had cremated the body
-and then had removed the ashes and burned bones to the prepared platform
-for burial.
-
-Thus far in exploring this Mound we have found no relics; these two
-people must have been just “poor folks.” But now comes a third. This
-grave is larger than the others and, we are told, looks as if it might
-be a good one. It proves to be a double burial containing the skeletons
-of a male and female. Royalty, they must have been, judging from the
-many ornaments that were placed around them; helmet-shaped head-dresses
-made of copper; beads and bracelets made of the same metal; spool-shaped
-ear ornaments of copper, and hundreds, yes, thousands of fresh-water
-pearl beads, and pieces of cloth with colored designs painted on it.
-
-The workmen have found another burial. This one may have been the chief
-of the tribe for, in addition to ear ornaments, a copper head-dress and
-a necklace made of bear-teeth, we find a large copper axe and beautiful
-spearheads chipped from what appears to be colored glass but which, we
-are told, is volcanic glass or obsidian.
-
-From what we have seen during the exploration of this Mound we try to
-form a picture of how the builders of it must have lived. In this the
-archæologist assists by telling us that many other things besides those
-which we have seen here are found with burials. The Mound-builders made
-artistic pottery; from grasses, plants and trees they collected fibers
-which they wove into fabrics; from stone, flint, bone, shell, wood,
-copper and silver they made their implements, cooking utensils and
-ornaments. Many of the materials which they used had been brought from
-distant sources. They found copper and silver near Lake Superior which
-they hammered and ground into the desired forms. They obtained
-grizzly-bear teeth for necklaces from the Rocky Mountains; lead ore from
-Illinois; sea shells from the Gulf of Mexico. They may have secured some
-of these things by trade or by sending out expeditions, probably both. A
-great deal of their time must have been spent in gathering mussels from
-the streams in order to secure the thousands of pearls they possessed.
-
-And now that we have seen how the Hopewell peoples buried their dead, we
-ask “Where did they live?”
-
-Like the ancient Mexicans, the Hopewell peoples, and some others of the
-Mound-builders, gave most of their attention to the dead rather than the
-living. The Pueblos and Cliff-dwellers built for the living, burying
-their dead in the quickest and easiest manner. The Mound-builders built
-mainly for the dead. Not far from the mounds are found the sites of
-their villages or towns but the only evidences of their homes are the
-post molds and fireplaces showing where their rude huts or tepees have
-stood.
-
-In the fields surrounding their villages they raised maize, squash,
-beans, and tobacco; but they depended mainly on the game which they
-secured in the chase, fish from the streams, and wild fruits, berries
-and nuts from the forest, for their food supplies.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 10—Statue of a Mound-builder, in the Ohio State
- Museum.]
-
-Having learned something of what the Mound-builders did and how they
-lived, we naturally are curious to know what they looked like. Formerly
-it was believed that the mysterious builders of the mounds were a race
-of giants and that they were altogether different in appearance from any
-other people. Careful study of their skeletons however proves that this
-is not true. Scientists are able to determine almost exactly how persons
-looked, no matter to what race or age they belonged, through a study of
-their skeletons, and by making use of these methods we now know that the
-Mound-builders were quite similar in appearance to the Indians. In the
-Ohio State Museum there are life-size statues of a Mound-builder man and
-woman, constructed after these methods and clothed with the garments,
-implements and ornaments which they actually used in life. A picture of
-the male figure is shown on page 21.
-
-
- ANCIENT NON-MOUND-BUILDING TRIBES
-
-And now that we have had a look at the Mound-builders, it only remains
-to be said that still another people, closely related but somewhat
-different, lived in the Ohio country before the coming of white men.
-Archæologists, in exploring the ancient Mounds, have learned just what
-kinds of implements, ornaments and utensils the Mound-builders used. But
-this is not all. In plowing and cultivating the fields, and in shallow
-graves found here and there, great numbers of relics of kinds not used
-by the Mound-builders have been found. Numerous collections of such
-relics, including arrow and spear points, grooved stone hatchets or
-tomahawks, stone pestles or corn grinders, ornaments of slate and stone,
-rude pottery vessels and other things somewhat different from what the
-Mound-builders used; are to be seen in these private collections. Some
-of them have been found on almost every farm in Ohio and almost every
-family has a few of these “Indian relics.” And the name “Indian relics”
-exactly describes them, because the archæologist has found that they
-were made and used by ancient tribes of Indians who lived in Ohio, in
-prehistoric times, but who did not build Mounds. It is probable that
-some of them were here at the same time as were the Mound-builders, but
-it is also likely that some of them were earlier, and perhaps they
-continued to live here after the passing of the Mound-builders, and up
-pretty close to the coming of white men. Doubtless they were the
-ancestors—the grandparents and the great-grandparents—of the Indians of
-later times. They seem to have belonged to the two great families of
-Indians—the Algonquins and the Iroquois—who were here when the Ohio
-country was first visited by white men.
-
-Just who these ancient Indian tribes were—that is, just what they may
-have called themselves or what others may have called them—is not known.
-Although the Shawnee, Miami, Delaware, Wyandot, Mingo and other Indian
-tribes were living in Ohio at the time of settlement, these tribes all
-were newcomers in a sense; that is, they had come into the country only
-a century or two earlier, mostly from the east and south. The earlier
-tribes, which we might call the native tribes, had been driven out of
-the country along about 1650 by a great raid or invasion carried on by
-the Iroquois Indians of New York state and the St. Lawrence Valley. This
-was about a century before the coming of white men, and it is believed
-that it left the Ohio country almost without Indian residents, a sort of
-no-man’s land, until the Wyandots, Miamis and others arrived.
-
-And now as to the interesting questions concerning the Mound-builders:
-Who were they? Where did they come from and when? Why did they build
-Mounds? What became of them?
-
-
- QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE MOUND-BUILDERS
-
-Time and space will not permit us to discuss these queries very fully,
-but perhaps we can tell enough about them in a few lines for the present
-purpose. Archæologists are now pretty well agreed that the
-Mound-builders, the Indians and all other peoples who lived in the
-Americas before the coming of Christopher Columbus, belonged to a single
-great race, which we may call the American Indian race. They believe
-that the Western Hemisphere was first peopled directly from Asia, by way
-of Bering Straits, by bands of savages or barbarians belonging to the
-Mongolian or Yellow race. These simple folk appear to have migrated to
-America soon after the disappearance of the great ice glaciers which
-once covered all of our northern country, reaching as far south as
-central Ohio. Geologists tell us that this happened some 12,000 to
-15,000 years ago.
-
-And so, from the Arctic regions on the north, to the southern tip of
-South America, these yellow-skinned immigrants spread until they peopled
-both continents. In Mexico, Central America and Peru, they came to have
-great civilizations, and to be known as the Aztecs, Incas, and others.
-Just why some of them became so highly civilized while others, like some
-of our Indians, remained the lowly barbarians that they were, is
-explained partly by what the archæologists call environment; that is, by
-weather, rainfall, soil, natural food supplies as game, fish, wild
-fruits—in a word, environment means the things we find around and about
-us. In the end we find that while all these peoples belonged to the same
-race they had formed different habits and customs and were really very
-different from one another in what is termed culture.
-
-As to what became of the Mound-builders, we cannot give very
-satisfactory answers. Some of them must have been destroyed by famine,
-disease, and warfare with enemies, just as were many of the nations of
-early history, in the Old World. Others probably gave up the habit of
-building Mounds, for some reason or other, and contented themselves with
-living just like other Indians. In this case, they were of course, the
-ancestors of the Indian tribes which we have known in historic times.
-
-In the following pages there are shown pictures and descriptions of the
-commoner relics found in the fields and taken from the Mounds. Most of
-these objects were used both by the Mound-builders and the Indians who
-did not build Mounds. Where this is not true, it is made plain in the
-descriptions. It is hoped that these pictures and descriptions will help
-the reader to understand the relics so freely found in Ohio, and that
-they will encourage those who may be interested further to visit the
-Ohio State Museum, in Columbus. Here the finest collections of Indian
-and Mound-builder relics to be found anywhere are displayed for the
-study and enjoyment of the public.
-
-
- HOW THINGS BEGAN
-
-The Mound-builders, and all other peoples at some time during their
-existence, lived in the Stone Age period of human development.
-Throughout the countless centuries of the Stone Age, human beings did
-not know the use of metals, as such. Indeed, it is only during the past
-few centuries that men have known such things as iron and steel, to say
-nothing of other metals. Some of them made limited use of raw metals and
-minerals, believing them to be only peculiar kinds of stone, never
-dreaming that they could be melted and refined and cast into implements
-and ornaments. Stone and Flint were the “metals” of the Mound-builders
-and other primitive peoples, while bone, shell, clay, wood and fibers
-were also much used. If peoples of the Stone Age had not made their
-humble beginnings, we would not be today living in the Age of Iron and
-enjoying the conveniences of civilization. While the specimens
-illustrated and described in the following pages belonged altogether to
-the Mound-builders and the prehistoric Indians, they are very similar to
-those used by early peoples the world over. Their study will aid us in
-understanding and appreciating how things began.
-
-Those who may wish to know more of the story of the Mound-builders and
-the Indians will find numerous books on the subject in their local
-libraries. When not available otherwise, they may be found in the
-Library of the Ohio State Museum, in Columbus. The following are
-recommended:
-
-Publications of the Ohio State Archæological and Historical Society, in
-which may be found articles concerning the Ohio Indians, and reports of
-explorations of the ancient mounds.

-
- THE USE OF STONE
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 11—Man’s First Tool, the Hammer Stone.]
-
-Away back in the days when all human beings were simple Stone Age
-peoples, just beginning the long climb toward civilization, their first
-tool was nothing more than a Stone or Pebble, picked up along the
-stream, and used as a Hammer Stone or Hand Hammer. They would want to
-crack a nut for its kernel, to break a bone for its marrow, or to
-frighten away a cave bear or hyena that threatened them; and the Hammer
-Stone served their needs. Later, when they learned that by breaking,
-pounding and pecking, they could change the shape and form of other
-stones, in making tools, the Hammer Stone was once more their servant.
-It was used by primitive peoples the world over, including of course the
-Mound-builders and the Indians. From the humble Hammer Stone, as a
-beginning, we may trace without a break all the inventions and progress
-that man has made, from the very earliest times up to the present.
-Therefore the Hammer Stone may be rightly called the father of
-civilization.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 12—Grooved Stone Hammer.]
-
-At first, the human arm was the handle of the Stone Hammer. Later,
-primitive man discovered that he could “work” stone by pecking and
-grinding it with another harder stone. He then supplied his Stone Hammer
-with a groove, and lashed it to a wooden handle by means of a rawhide
-thong. This handle not only gave him a longer reach, but added more
-power to his blow.
-
-Putting a groove on a Stone Hammer was really a very important step in
-human development, for it made of the tool an actual piece of personal
-property, which the owner would want to carry around with him as he
-moved from place to place and which, perhaps, would be handed down from
-father to son.
-
-In Ohio, the ancient Indian tribes used the Grooved Hammer quite freely,
-and while none have been found in Mounds, it is probable that the
-Mound-builders also made use of it.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 13—Stone Pestles and Mortars.]
-
-For crushing and grinding corn and seeds into meal, primitive peoples
-used simple stone implements, several of which are shown above. The type
-of Pestle, shown at the upper left, known as the Bell-shaped Pestle, is
-found abundantly in Ohio and near-by states. They were used with wooden
-Mortars or flat stones, and sometimes with shallow stone mortars, like
-that shown at the upper right, and were suitable either for pounding or
-grinding.
-
-The lower specimen in the picture, known as a Roller Pestle, was used
-like a modern rolling-pin.
-
-Stone Pestles are rarely found in Mounds, but were used mostly by the
-primitive Indian tribes.
-
-The stone Pestle and Mortar were man’s first grist-mill, out of which
-developed the water-driven grist-mills of pioneer days and, later on,
-the great electrically-driven flour mills of today.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 14—Chisels and Celts, or Ungrooved Axes.]
-
-These, with the Grooved Axe illustrated on the following page, were the
-commoner types of implements used for chiseling and chopping. They could
-also be used as wedges. With the Celt, when used as a Chisel or
-Hand-hatchet, the human arm was the handle. If it served as a Hatchet,
-Tomahawk, or Axe, it was lashed to a wooden handle by means of rawhide
-thongs.
-
-The Celt was used for a great variety of purposes. In Ohio and near-by
-states it is often called a “skinning stone,” and it would have been a
-very convenient tool for removing the hides of animals. Some Celts are
-very rough in appearance, with only the edges ground to a polish, while
-others are smooth and highly polished over their entire surfaces.
-
-The Celt is a very ancient tool, and is found in large numbers on the
-surface of the ground in almost every part of the world where men have
-lived.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 15—Grooved Stone Axes.]
-
-It is interesting to compare the modern Steel Axe, Hatchet or other
-handled cutting tool, with the simple stone implements of prehistoric
-times and to note how, little by little, they have been improved and
-perfected. The present-day Axe or hatchet is comparatively light and
-thin and the handle is inserted through a hole or into a socket. Stone
-tools, no matter how the handle is attached, must be heavier and
-thicker, because stone will not stand the strain of hard use as will
-steel.
-
-The Ohio Mound-building peoples simply lashed wooden handles to their
-ungrooved Axes or Celts, using rawhide thongs. These, when they dried,
-held very tightly and made a very useful tool. The ancient Indians also
-used this method, and in addition they pecked grooves around their Axes
-to supply a firmer fastening for the thong. The above drawings show the
-Grooved Axe, and how the handle was secured. This implement served as an
-Axe, a Hatchet or a Tomahawk, according to its size.
-
-
- THE USE OF FLINT
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 16—An Arrowmaker’s Outfit.]
-
-Primitive man used Stone a long time before finding what proved to be a
-very superior variety, Flint, a rough block of which is shown on the
-left in the picture. Possibly he chanced upon a piece of Flint and in
-using it as a Hammer Stone noticed that it broke into thin flakes with
-sharp edges, and with this knowledge he soon learned to make Flint
-Knives, Scrapers, Arrow-points, Drills, and other cutting and piercing
-tools. For example, from the rough piece of Flint, “A,” the arrowmaker
-struck off a few flakes with his Stone Hammer, producing the piece
-marked “B,” which has something of the shape of the final point. Then by
-means of the chipping tool of deer antler, marked “E,” he pressed off
-thin flakes from the edges of “B,” and produced “C,” and finally the
-finished point, “D.”
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 17—Flint Cutting and Scraping Implements.]
-
-Perhaps the earliest tools made from Flint were simple flakes, struck
-from a block of flint by means of a hammerstone. “B,” in the picture,
-shows two of these flakes, which remind us, in shape, of a modern knife
-blade or a safety razor blade. At first they were simply held in the
-fingers, but later probably were mounted in wooden or bone handles. In
-“C” is shown the “core” of flint from which the flake or blade was
-struck off. In time primitive peoples, including the Mound-builders and
-the Indians, came to make more pretentious knife-blades, like that shown
-as “D.”
-
-Scrapers of various sorts were made from flint, and served many
-purposes. The simplest form, a mere flake of flint, is the top specimen
-in “A,” while an improved type, with notches for securing it to a handle
-is shown below it. They were used for scraping wood, bone and stone, in
-making tools and ornaments, and for removing the fat from skins, before
-tanning.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 18—Flint Drills and Perforators.]
-
-For drilling wood, stone, bone, and other materials, primitive man made
-and used Flint implements of the types shown in this picture. Flint
-Drills such as these are abundant in village sites and on the surface of
-the ground where their makers lived. Two different kinds of perforators
-are shown here. The one to the left is made with an expanded base so
-that when drilling a hole through hard material, such as wood or a thick
-piece of leather, the tool could be turned easily by the hand. The other
-specimen, to the right, “A,” was probably used like an ordinary punch of
-today, with a twisting motion. Flint is a very hard stone and with such
-Drills as the one on the left, holes were made in softer stones like
-granite and slate.
-
-In “B” is shown the manner in which Flint points of this type were
-mounted on a shaft and made into a mechanical drill by twining a
-bow-string once around the shaft and drawing the bow back and forth.
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 19—Flint Arrow and Spear Points.]
-
-Most useful of all Flint implements were the “Points” or “Heads” of
-Flint, as shown above. The only difference between an Arrowhead (A) and
-a Spearhead (B) is that of size. Those more than three inches long are
-usually called Spearheads.
-
-With Arrows and Spears tipped with Flint Points, the primitive hunter
-was able to “bag” an abundance of game. Flint Points like these are
-probably the most numerous of the relics left by the prehistoric
-inhabitants of America. They are found by the hundreds of thousands in
-all parts of the country, on the surface, in mounds and graves, and in
-places where the Indians had their villages.
-
-Shot from strong bows, these Flint Points had great penetrating power.
-Arrowheads have been found imbedded in the bones of large animals and
-human beings in such positions as to show that they passed through
-almost the entire thickness of the body before being brought to a stop.
-
-
- PREHISTORIC FARMING
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 20—Primitive Agricultural Implements.]
-
-Although the Mound-builders, like all primitive peoples, drew freely on
-nature’s bounty for food supplies, such as hunting, fishing and
-gathering wild nuts, fruits, and roots, they had developed agriculture
-to a considerable degree. Tending their crops with rude Hoes made from
-clam shells (A) and shoulder blades of the deer (B), they produced corn,
-beans, squash, tobacco, etc. It is probable also that some of the burial
-mounds were built with the aid of such Hoes, which were used for
-loosening the soil and scraping it into baskets and carrying bags.
-
-
- THE USE OF BONE
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 21—Implements of Bone.]
-
-Next to Stone and Flint, the Mound-builders prized Bone for making
-implements and ornaments. Above (B, C) are shown two Bone Awls, which
-served for piercing leather and bark, and also as “tableware” in eating
-their meals. Other things made from bone were Harpoons and Arrowheads
-(A), Fish Hooks (D), Scrapers (F), Hoes, Needles (E), and Ornaments such
-as Beads and Pendants.
-
-With some of the Ohio Mound-builders and prehistoric Indians, Bone was
-almost as important as Flint and Stone, and was used for many different
-purposes.
-
-
- USE OF CLAY FOR POTTERY
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 22—Vessels of Burned Clay.]
-
-The Mound-builders and some of the Indians made their pots and pans out
-of clay, of which there is a great abundance in the river valleys of
-Ohio. They tempered or hardened the clay by mixing it with ground-up
-rock or shells, molded it into the desired shape, and baked the vessel
-in an open fire.
-
-Many of these ancient pots have designs like “B” and “C,” which were
-made with small sticks, or perhaps with pieces of flint or bone, before
-burning.
-
-In size, pottery vessels range all the way from that of a thimble to a
-bushel basket. They were used for the most part for cooking, storing and
-preserving food, but many of the highly decorated pots found in the
-mounds were probably made purposely as tributes to the dead.
-
-
- SPINNING AND WEAVING
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 23—Mound-builder Cloth.]
-
-The Mound-builders wove serviceable cloth from the tough fibers of
-plants and the inner bark of certain trees. The sample shown as “A”
-resembles the homespun linen of the days of our pioneer grandmothers,
-and in “B” a piece of the same sample is magnified to show the weave.
-Cloth, as well as the skins of animals, was used for clothing by the
-Mound-builders, and they probably knew how to weave thick blankets to
-protect them from the cold in winter. There are many samples of
-Mound-builder Cloth, as well as of woven bark matting, in the Ohio State
-Museum. These show half a dozen or more different weaving patterns, of
-which the weave shown in the above picture is but one. Copper implements
-found in the mounds were very often wrapped in Cloth, which was
-preserved throughout the centuries by the chemical action of the Copper.
-
-Some of the prehistoric Indians also wove cloth, but none of them was as
-skilled as the Mound-builders.
-
-
- THE USE OF METALS
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 24—Implements and Ornaments of Copper.]
-
-Although strictly a Stone Age people, the Mound-builders used Copper,
-Silver and other native metals. They had not learned to melt these, but
-pounded the metal into the desired shape, afterward polishing the
-objects by rubbing. The objects shown in the picture are all made of
-Copper. “A” is a Bracelet and “B” is a Celt, or ungrooved Axe. “C” shows
-two views of what are called Ear-spools. These were worn as ornaments in
-the ears, and probably signified some particular station in life. The
-Mound-builders obtained their copper from the shores of Lake Superior,
-where it is found near the surface of the ground. Many of the pits they
-dug there are still to be seen. Silver was also obtained by them in the
-same region.
-
-Besides Copper and Silver, the Mound-builders used Galena, or Lead-ore,
-and Iron, which they probably obtained from fallen meteors. The
-non-Mound-building Indians used copper to a lesser extent.
-
-
- PERSONAL ORNAMENTATION
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 25—Mound-builder Jewelry.]
-
-Beads always have been popular with human beings as articles of personal
-adornment. The Mound-builders and other Indians used them in great
-numbers, samples of which are shown in the picture. From left to right
-there are: Beads made of fresh-water pearls, which are found in the
-mounds by the thousands; a “breast-pin” of sea-shell decorated with the
-effigy of an insect, and a Bear Tusk with a Pearl set in it, used as a
-pendant for a necklace.
-
-The Mound-builders made Pendants and Beads and other ornaments, some of
-which were sewed onto cloth, out of Copper, Mica, Tortoise-shell, Stone
-and Bone. Many Buttons about as large around as a dime, made of
-sandstone and covered with thin layers of copper or silver, have been
-found in the burial mounds. Some of the Mound-builders even wore rings
-of copper on their fingers.
-
-
- THE ART OF THE MOUND-BUILDERS
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 26—Mound-builder Designs.]
-
-The Mound-builders were artists, carving and cutting a variety of
-patterns in Bone, Mica, Shell, Copper, Clay and Stone. Without doubt
-they worked in other materials too, such as Wood and Bark, but these, of
-course, have entirely disappeared along with other perishable materials.
-We have seen examples of their artistic ability in the great geometrical
-circles, squares and octagons which they built up of earth around some
-of their burial mounds.
-
-At the left in the picture is a section of a human leg bone carved with
-an attractive design. This was no doubt a sort of family relic or a
-memento of some relative who had died. In the middle of the picture is a
-rare design, possibly representing the universe, cut from a thin sheet
-of copper. At the right is the foot of an eagle, cut out of a thin sheet
-of mica, as skillfully as anyone could do it today.
-
-The finest examples of Mound-builder art are the many tobacco pipes
-taken from the Mounds.
-
-
- TOBACCO AND TOBACCO PIPES
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 27—The Mound-builder Tobacco Pipe.]
-
-The Mound-builders cultivated and smoked Tobacco long before civilized
-people knew of the plant. Above is a picture of one of their Tobacco
-Pipes, in which they have shown their artistic ability by carving it in
-the image of the Dog, their only domestic animal. Several hundred pipes
-like this one have been found in mounds in Ohio, representing many
-different animals and birds, and the human form has also been found. The
-American Indian not only taught the white man the use of tobacco, but it
-was probably from pipes very much like those of the Mound-builders, with
-stem and bowl, from which our modern tobacco-pipes are copied.
-
-This Pipe is made of Ohio Pipestone, which is found in Scioto County.
-The Tobacco Pipes of the Mound-builders and prehistoric Indians are made
-not only of this material, but of several kinds of stone, including
-limestone, slate, steatite or soapstone, and granite.
-
-
- “CEREMONIAL” OBJECTS
-
- [Illustration: Fig. 28—Charms, Badges and Talismans.]
-
-Almost every collection of “Indian relics” contains one or more
-specimens, like those shown above, that are difficult to account for.
-They are called by the Archæologists “Ceremonial” objects, because they
-are believed to have been used in mysterious ceremonies of the
-Mound-builders and Indians. The specimen marked “A” is a pendant or
-Gorget, and was worn suspended from the neck. Specimen “B” is a
-Bannerstone, and “C” is a Crescent. They probably were mounted on wooden
-handles and served as badges of authority or rank. Other Ceremonial
-objects are tubes (D), Cones, Bars, Bird-shaped objects, called
-Bird-stones, and others.

-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may

-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.

-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If

-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
-Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
-to date contact information can be found at the Foundation's website
-and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-<h1 title="">PRIMER OF OHIO ARCH&AElig;OLOGY</h1>
-<h2 id="c1"><span class="small">FOREWORD</span></h2>
-<p>This booklet is issued by the Ohio State Arch&aelig;ological
-and Historical Society in response to a demand for a
-brief outline of the main features of prehistoric arch&aelig;ology
-in Ohio.</p>
-<p>While intended primarily for use of students in the
-elementary schools, it is hoped that visitors to the
-Museum, and the general public, as well as collectors of
-arch&aelig;ological material, and students of prehistory, may
-find the brief summary contained herein of interest and
-value.</p>
-<p>Since types of arch&aelig;ological specimens are fairly
-similar throughout the area east of the Rocky Mountains,
-and particularly within the general Mound area,
-the information contained in this summary is broadly
-applicable even outside the boundaries of the state of
-Ohio. Further, since the course of human development
-has been basically the same the world over, the simple
-series of local &ldquo;relics&rdquo; selected for this study will serve
-to illustrate how, through countless centuries of pioneering,
-human beings have advanced from savagery to civilization,
-thus making for understanding and appreciation
-of the present time.</p>
-<p>The wealth of material on display and in the study
-collections at the Ohio State Museum will serve as an
-inexhaustible laboratory in further pursuit of the subject
-by those who may be so inclined.</p>

-<h2 id="c2"><span class="small">THE MOUND-BUILDERS AND THE INDIANS</span></h2>
-<p>When white settlers first entered the country north
-and west of the Ohio River, from which later on the
-state of Ohio was to be carved, they found here, as
-everyone knows, the Indians. When we pause to consider
-that Ohio today is one of the greatest states in
-the Union, it is hard to believe that this happened less
-than two centuries ago. However, the story of the
-Indian tribes that white men found living on Ohio soil
-when they arrived is a part of Ohio history, and will not
-be dwelt upon in this booklet. For the present we are
-concerned only with the people who lived in Ohio before
-the historic Indians, and we may refer to them as the
-first Ohioans.</p>
-<h3 id="c3">THE FIRST OHIOANS</h3>
-<p>White people had not been on Ohio soil very long before
-they began to notice peculiar mounds and fortifications
-built of earth and stone. Evidently these were
-very ancient, as they were overgrown by the forest. The
-Indian inhabitants were neither building nor using such
-structures, nor could they tell the white settlers anything
-about them. A bit of digging, here and there,
-soon showed that the mounds contained human burials
-and that with these were strange relics. Hence it was
-clear that they had been built by human beings. But
-by whom? The settlers reasoned, very naturally, that
-<span class="pb" id="Page_6">6</span>
-if the tribesmen living in the region had not constructed
-them, then they must have been built by a people preceding
-the Indians. And so, lacking a better name,
-they called them &ldquo;The Mound-builders,&rdquo; just as we of
-today, viewing the few remaining log cabins scattered
-over the countryside, might call the pioneers &ldquo;The
-Cabin-builders.&rdquo; The settlers, however, who built and
-lived in the log cabins of pioneer days, realized the value
-of records, so that people who came after them might
-know who they were and what they did. And so they
-wrote history. But the Mound-builders had not yet
-progressed far enough on the road to civilization to do
-this; and so we must look elsewhere for the answers to
-those questions which naturally come into our minds.
-Who were the Mound-builders? Where did they come
-from, and when; why did they build Mounds; and what
-became of them? The pioneer settlers who first noticed
-the Mounds could not open a book and read the answers
-to these queries. But as the years have passed, the puzzles
-have been solved in a most interesting manner, as
-we shall see presently.</p>
-<p>To begin with the Mounds and Earthworks themselves,
-it may be said that there are many thousands of
-them. They are scattered over 20 or more states, from
-the Mississippi River eastward to the Atlantic and extending
-southward to the Gulf and into Florida. Ohio,
-it may be truly said, was the center of Mound-builder
-life, as a result of which it has come to be known as the
-Mound-builder state. More than 5,000 Mounds, fortifications
-and other remains of these interesting people
-have been located within its bounds.</p>

-<h3 id="c4">ANCIENT MOUNDS AND EARTHWORKS</h3>
-<div class="img" id="fig2">
-<img src="images/p02.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="503" />
-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 2&mdash;The Miamisburg Mound.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>A glance at the outline map on <a href="#Page_4">page 4</a> shows the
-location of these ancient works. It will be noted that
-the southern one-half of the state was the favored region,
-especially along the courses of the streams and
-rivers flowing southward to the Ohio. An automobile
-trip through southern Ohio affords an excellent outing
-or vacation, and makes it possible to see the actual
-Mounds and other structures of the long ago. Some of
-them, the tourist will note, are merely heaps of earth,
-more or less pointed at the top and ranging from slight
-elevations, hardly noticeable above the surface of the
-fields, to others as much as twenty, thirty, or even forty
-feet in height. The tallest Mound of this kind in Ohio
-is the great Miamisburg Mound, near the town of that
-name, in Montgomery County, which is 70 feet high
-and covers nearly three acres of ground. These conical
-Mounds, as they are called, are shaped like a chocolate
-<span class="pb" id="Page_8">8</span>
-drop. They are far more numerous than any other kind
-of earthen structures and, as we shall see presently, they
-served as monuments to the dead; that is, they were
-burial mounds&mdash;tombstones.</p>
-<p>Next in point of numbers are the ancient fortifications,
-built as means of protection from enemies.
-Usually they are the more or less level tops of hills or
-plateaus, with steep slopes and ravines offering ready-made
-obstructions to the approach of enemies. Around
-the edges of the area set aside for the &ldquo;fort&rdquo; earthen
-and stone walls were thrown up, and probably wooden
-pickets or stakes were set into these as further protection
-from without. Among the largest and finest of
-these old fortifications in Ohio are the noted Fort
-Ancient, in Warren County, and Fort Hill, in Highland
-County.</p>

-<p>Fort Ancient, perhaps the greatest prehistoric fortification
-in the United States, is permanently preserved
-as one of Ohio&rsquo;s State Memorials. It consists of two
-principal divisions, known as the Old Fort and the New
-Fort, the two being connected by a narrow passageway
-enclosed within earthen walls.</p>
-<p>Fort Hill, in Highland County, is not as large as
-Fort Ancient, but is finely preserved, very bold in outline,
-and most picturesquely located.</p>
-<p>Other important Fortifications are Glenford Fort, in
-Perry County; Miami Fort, near the mouth of the Great
-Miami River; and Spruce Hill, in Ross County.</p>
-<p>There is another type of earthwork, resembling
-somewhat the old forts, but which served a different
-purpose. We shall learn more of these in connection
-with Hopewell culture Mounds, to be described later.</p>
-<p>In addition to the Mounds and Earthworks, the
-Mound-builders left behind them many burial grounds
-or cemeteries, and numerous village or town sites.
-Usually the two are found together, and often the burial
-mounds are near-by. In the village sites there may be
-found, usually beneath the plow line in cultivated fields,
-the remains of rude streets, house foundations, fireplaces,
-and countless numbers of relics lost or thrown
-aside by the residents of the site, centuries ago. From
-these relics a good idea of the people and their life may
-be gained through study. Some of the principal village-sites
-and cemeteries explored by the Ohio State Museum
-are the Baum and Gartner sites, in Ross County, and
-the Feurt village-site, in Scioto County. The largest
-of all the Ohio village sites is known as the Madisonville
-site, located near Cincinnati.</p>

-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 5&mdash;The Great Serpent Mound, Adams County, Ohio.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>Certain prehistoric remains of great interest are
-the Effigy Mounds, so-called because they were built
-in the effigy or image of birds and animals. The finest
-of these in Ohio is the Great Serpent Mound, of Adams
-County. Another interesting effigy mound is the Opossum
-Mound, near Granville, Ohio.</p>
-<p>The Effigy Mounds are believed to have represented
-the totems or clan symbols of their builders.
-Thus the Great Serpent Mound may have been the
-totem of the Serpent or Snake tribe. They also very
-likely played a part in the religion of the people who
-built them, as most primitive people appear to worship
-natural objects.</p>
-<p>Although most of the Effigy Mounds are found
-in southern Wisconsin, the Great Serpent Mound is
-the largest and finest known.</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_12">12</div>
-<h3 id="c5">THE ARCH&AElig;OLOGIST AND HIS WORK</h3>
-<p>All that we have seen and learned of the Mounds
-and Earthworks, up to this point, is merely what anyone,
-by using his eyes, might see and learn; in fact, just
-what the pioneers observed. In other words we have
-looked at them from the outside, without knowing the
-secrets buried inside them. And now, since the Mound-builders
-left no written history behind them, we must get
-acquainted with another branch of science in order to
-obtain the information we desire. This new science is
-known as Arch&aelig;ology, and the man or woman who
-works at it is called an arch&aelig;ologist. Arch&aelig;ology is
-really the science of old things; that is, it concerns itself
-with the things which human beings did before they
-became intelligent enough to write and leave behind them
-their own histories. Since he has no intentional records
-to guide him, the arch&aelig;ologist depends mostly on exploration
-or digging into ancient ruins and remains for
-his information. Thus he finds the rude relics of by-gone
-ages, relics lost or thrown away by their one-time
-users, and from these he pieces together the story of a
-people.</p>
-<p>Having met the arch&aelig;ologist, we may now get an
-insight into the interiors of the mounds, cemeteries and
-village-sites of the Mound-builders. Let us go ahead of
-our story for a moment and explain that arch&aelig;ologists,
-as a result of their explorations, have found that there
-were numerous kinds, or cultures as he calls them, of
-Mound-builders. While all of them were closely related,
-and belonged to the same race, they differed
-greatly among themselves in manners and customs.
-Some of them were rather highly advanced in their civilization,
-<span class="pb" id="Page_13">13</span>
-while others were rather backward, just as is
-true of the various tribes and nations of Indians of
-later or historic times. With some of them the trait or
-habit of building mounds was very important while with
-others it was only a sort of &ldquo;side-line.&rdquo; Some of them
-merely placed their dead upon the surface and piled
-earth above the remains to form a Mound, while others
-prepared carefully made tombs of logs within the Mound
-for the dead. Some were skilled in the use of copper
-and silver, the weaving of cloth and the making of potteryware,
-while others contented themselves with only
-flint and stone and the simpler arts of living.</p>
-<h3 id="c6">VARIOUS KINDS OF MOUND-BUILDERS</h3>
-<p>In Ohio alone there were three outstanding kinds
-or cultures of Mound-builders, besides several less important
-ones. These three are known as the Fort
-Ancient, the Adena and the Hopewell cultures, taking
-their names from the places where their Mounds were
-first examined and identified. The Fort Ancient peoples
-were the least advanced of the three, yet they were
-the most numerous and prosperous of the prehistoric
-peoples of Ohio. Their old village-sites are numerous
-in the southern half of the State, as at the Baum, Gartner
-and Feurt sites, and always are accompanied by
-burial Mounds and cemeteries. A number of them have
-been explored by the Ohio State Museum where the relics
-are on display. They used no metals and had but little
-art, but they made many useful, practical things of flint,
-stone, bone, shell, clay and wood.</p>
-<p>Adena peoples were more highly advanced than the
-Fort Ancient but were not nearly so numerous. They
-<span class="pb" id="Page_14">14</span>
-worked copper into ornaments and were highly artistic
-in carving stone and bone. They are noted for their
-large shapely mounds, the great Miamisburg Mound
-being an example.</p>
-<div class="img" id="fig6">
-<img src="images/p05.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="764" />
-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 6&mdash;The Seip Group of Earthworks, Ross County, Ohio.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>The Hopewell peoples were not only the most highly
-advanced in Ohio, but in many respects in the entire
-country north of Mexico. They are noted for their
-many mounds, usually occurring in groups, and for the
-peculiar earthworks or enclosures in groups, earlier in
-this booklet. These earthworks or enclosures are known
-as &ldquo;Geometric Enclosures,&rdquo; because they are built in
-geometric forms, such as circles, squares, crescents, and
-so forth. They differ from the fortifications in that
-<span class="pb" id="Page_15">15</span>
-they were used for social and religious purposes rather
-than for defense. Important examples of Hopewell
-works are the Hopewell Group, in Ross County; the
-Mound City Group, within Camp Sherman, Chillicothe;
-the Seip Group, near Bainbridge, Ross County; the great
-works at Newark, the Marietta works, and others. The
-Mound City, the Newark and the Seip Groups are now
-State Memorials and those at Marietta are preserved
-by local interests.</p>
-<h3 id="c7">THE INSIDE STORY OF A MOUND</h3>
-<div class="img" id="fig7">
-<img src="images/p05a.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="737" />
-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 7&mdash;Exploring the Seip Mound, Ross County, Ohio.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>No doubt every reader of this booklet would like to
-take part in the actual &ldquo;digging&rdquo; of a mound. This, of
-course cannot be, since the actual exploration of a large
-Mound requires months and even years. But perhaps
-<span class="pb" id="Page_16">16</span>
-we can do the next best thing; perhaps we can take part
-in an imaginary examination of a Mound, and in that
-way get an idea of how it is done and of what is found.
-Supposing we select a Mound of the interesting Hopewell
-culture. The Hopewell peoples, as we have seen,
-were very highly advanced and this fact, therefore,
-might lead the reader to expect too much of the other
-cultures, yet if we keep this in mind we will be on the
-safe side.</p>
-<p>Let us imagine that our Mound is located in Ross
-County, in the charming Paint Creek Valley, somewhere
-near old Chillicothe, first capital of Ohio and
-ancient capital of the Mound-builders. Before us
-stands a mound of earth, 125 feet in diameter at its
-base and 25 feet in height. The field in which it stands
-is under cultivation but the mound itself, being too steep
-for farming purposes, is covered by a thicket of shrubbery
-and trees. An exploration party has arrived on
-the scene and is preparing to examine this ancient earthwork.</p>
-<p>Workmen with picks and shovels step to the edge of
-the Mound and begin to dig, throwing the loose earth
-well behind them. The &ldquo;boss&rdquo; explains that the entire
-mound is to be removed by slicing it off, as a cake might
-be, in five-foot sections. We note surveying instruments,
-cameras, notebooks, everything in readiness.
-Teams and scrapers are waiting to take away the loose
-earth after it has been carefully examined.</p>

-</div>
-<p>The first of the five-foot slices having been removed
-there appears, at the level of the surrounding field, what
-looks like a cement floor. At the outer edge of this and
-following the curve of the mound we see post holes a
-foot or two apart in some of which are decayed posts.
-These post holes prove to the explorer that this Mound
-was built by the Hopewell peoples. When a Hopewell
-Culture band or tribe picked a site for a new home, he
-explains, one of the first things it did was to set aside
-a place for the burial of its dead and for worship, a
-sacred place. After clearing this spot of all underbrush
-and trees, the top-soil was removed and in order to make
-a firm floor they plastered this over with clay. On top
-of that was placed an inch or two of sand or fine gravel
-for a floor-covering. The next step was to secure some
-posts and set them in the ground around the edge of
-this area to form a wall. Twigs and branches of trees
-were woven among these and plastered with clay to keep
-out cold and rain. A thatched roof made of closely
-<span class="pb" id="Page_18">18</span>
-woven twigs and boughs was placed over it and the
-sacred temple was complete. Into this they brought
-their dead for funeral ceremonies, burial and cremation.</p>
-<p>Our attention is suddenly called to the actual work
-at hand. A laborer has struck his mattock into a loose
-spot in the face of the Mound. We are informed that
-this will be a burial and, sure enough, within an hour a
-human skeleton has been unearthed and lies there on
-the floor all ready to have its picture taken. The Hopewell
-people, we learn, made platforms of earth a few
-inches above the floor and after placing their dead on
-these they built cabin-like structures of logs over them
-and covered these, in turn, by small mounds of earth.</p>
-<div class="img" id="fig9">
-<img src="images/p07.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="534" />
-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 9&mdash;Crematory Basin in a Hopewell Mound.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>And now we come to the second burial which appears
-in every way like the first, excepting that instead
-of a skeleton there is merely a &ldquo;hatful&rdquo; of burned bones
-and ashes. This we are informed is a cremated burial.
-We can see no evidences that a fire has burned here and
-<span class="pb" id="Page_19">19</span>
-we are curious to learn how the ashes and charred bones
-came to be so carefully placed in a small heap. These
-questions are answered when we find near-by a little rectangular
-basin of baked clay, shaped something like a
-cement horse trough, built into the floor. In this basin
-they had cremated the body and then had removed the
-ashes and burned bones to the prepared platform for
-burial.</p>
-<p>Thus far in exploring this Mound we have found
-no relics; these two people must have been just &ldquo;poor
-folks.&rdquo; But now comes a third. This grave is larger
-than the others and, we are told, looks as if it might be
-a good one. It proves to be a double burial containing
-the skeletons of a male and female. Royalty, they must
-have been, judging from the many ornaments that were
-placed around them; helmet-shaped head-dresses made
-of copper; beads and bracelets made of the same metal;
-spool-shaped ear ornaments of copper, and hundreds,
-yes, thousands of fresh-water pearl beads, and pieces of
-cloth with colored designs painted on it.</p>
-<p>The workmen have found another burial. This one
-may have been the chief of the tribe for, in addition to
-ear ornaments, a copper head-dress and a necklace made
-of bear-teeth, we find a large copper axe and beautiful
-spearheads chipped from what appears to be colored
-glass but which, we are told, is volcanic glass or obsidian.</p>
-<p>From what we have seen during the exploration of
-this Mound we try to form a picture of how the builders
-of it must have lived. In this the arch&aelig;ologist assists
-by telling us that many other things besides those which
-we have seen here are found with burials. The Mound-builders
-<span class="pb" id="Page_20">20</span>
-made artistic pottery; from grasses, plants and
-trees they collected fibers which they wove into fabrics;
-from stone, flint, bone, shell, wood, copper and silver
-they made their implements, cooking utensils and ornaments.
-Many of the materials which they used had been
-brought from distant sources. They found copper and
-silver near Lake Superior which they hammered and
-ground into the desired forms. They obtained grizzly-bear
-teeth for necklaces from the Rocky Mountains;
-lead ore from Illinois; sea shells from the Gulf of
-Mexico. They may have secured some of these things
-by trade or by sending out expeditions, probably both.
-A great deal of their time must have been spent in gathering
-mussels from the streams in order to secure the
-thousands of pearls they possessed.</p>
-<p>And now that we have seen how the Hopewell peoples
-buried their dead, we ask &ldquo;Where did they live?&rdquo;</p>
-<p>Like the ancient Mexicans, the Hopewell peoples,
-and some others of the Mound-builders, gave most of
-their attention to the dead rather than the living. The
-Pueblos and Cliff-dwellers built for the living, burying
-their dead in the quickest and easiest manner. The
-Mound-builders built mainly for the dead. Not far from
-the mounds are found the sites of their villages or towns
-but the only evidences of their homes are the post molds
-and fireplaces showing where their rude huts or tepees
-have stood.</p>
-<p>In the fields surrounding their villages they raised
-maize, squash, beans, and tobacco; but they depended
-mainly on the game which they secured in the chase, fish
-from the streams, and wild fruits, berries and nuts from
-the forest, for their food supplies.</p>

-</div>
-<p>Having learned something of what the Mound-builders
-did and how they lived, we naturally are curious
-to know what they looked like. Formerly it was believed
-that the mysterious builders of the mounds were
-a race of giants and that they were altogether different
-in appearance from any other people. Careful study of
-their skeletons however proves that this is not true.
-Scientists are able to determine almost exactly how
-persons looked, no matter to what race or age they belonged,
-<span class="pb" id="Page_22">22</span>
-through a study of their skeletons, and by making
-use of these methods we now know that the Mound-builders
-were quite similar in appearance to the Indians.
-In the Ohio State Museum there are life-size statues of
-a Mound-builder man and woman, constructed after
-these methods and clothed with the garments, implements
-and ornaments which they actually used in life.
-A picture of the male figure is shown on <a href="#Page_21">page 21</a>.</p>
-<h3 id="c8">ANCIENT NON-MOUND-BUILDING TRIBES</h3>
-<p>And now that we have had a look at the Mound-builders,
-it only remains to be said that still another
-people, closely related but somewhat different, lived in
-the Ohio country before the coming of white men.
-Arch&aelig;ologists, in exploring the ancient Mounds, have
-learned just what kinds of implements, ornaments and
-utensils the Mound-builders used. But this is not all.
-In plowing and cultivating the fields, and in shallow
-graves found here and there, great numbers of relics of
-kinds not used by the Mound-builders have been found.
-Numerous collections of such relics, including arrow
-and spear points, grooved stone hatchets or tomahawks,
-stone pestles or corn grinders, ornaments of slate and
-stone, rude pottery vessels and other things somewhat
-different from what the Mound-builders used; are to be
-seen in these private collections. Some of them have
-been found on almost every farm in Ohio and almost
-every family has a few of these &ldquo;Indian relics.&rdquo; And
-the name &ldquo;Indian relics&rdquo; exactly describes them, because
-the arch&aelig;ologist has found that they were made and
-used by ancient tribes of Indians who lived in Ohio, in
-<span class="pb" id="Page_23">23</span>
-prehistoric times, but who did not build Mounds. It is
-probable that some of them were here at the same time
-as were the Mound-builders, but it is also likely that
-some of them were earlier, and perhaps they continued
-to live here after the passing of the Mound-builders, and
-up pretty close to the coming of white men. Doubtless
-they were the ancestors&mdash;the grandparents and the
-great-grandparents&mdash;of the Indians of later times.
-They seem to have belonged to the two great families
-of Indians&mdash;the Algonquins and the Iroquois&mdash;who
-were here when the Ohio country was first visited by
-white men.</p>
-<p>Just who these ancient Indian tribes were&mdash;that is,
-just what they may have called themselves or what
-others may have called them&mdash;is not known. Although
-the Shawnee, Miami, Delaware, Wyandot, Mingo and
-other Indian tribes were living in Ohio at the time of
-settlement, these tribes all were newcomers in a sense;
-that is, they had come into the country only a century
-or two earlier, mostly from the east and south. The
-earlier tribes, which we might call the native tribes,
-had been driven out of the country along about 1650 by
-a great raid or invasion carried on by the Iroquois Indians
-of New York state and the St. Lawrence Valley.
-This was about a century before the coming of white
-men, and it is believed that it left the Ohio country almost
-without Indian residents, a sort of no-man&rsquo;s land,
-until the Wyandots, Miamis and others arrived.</p>
-<p>And now as to the interesting questions concerning
-the Mound-builders: Who were they? Where did they
-come from and when? Why did they build Mounds?
-What became of them?</p>
-<div class="pb" id="Page_24">24</div>
-<h3 id="c9">QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE MOUND-BUILDERS</h3>
-<p>Time and space will not permit us to discuss these
-queries very fully, but perhaps we can tell enough about
-them in a few lines for the present purpose. Arch&aelig;ologists
-are now pretty well agreed that the Mound-builders,
-the Indians and all other peoples who lived in
-the Americas before the coming of Christopher Columbus,
-belonged to a single great race, which we may call
-the American Indian race. They believe that the
-Western Hemisphere was first peopled directly from
-Asia, by way of Bering Straits, by bands of savages or
-barbarians belonging to the Mongolian or Yellow race.
-These simple folk appear to have migrated to America
-soon after the disappearance of the great ice glaciers
-which once covered all of our northern country, reaching
-as far south as central Ohio. Geologists tell us that
-this happened some 12,000 to 15,000 years ago.</p>
-<p>And so, from the Arctic regions on the north, to the
-southern tip of South America, these yellow-skinned
-immigrants spread until they peopled both continents.
-In Mexico, Central America and Peru, they came to
-have great civilizations, and to be known as the Aztecs,
-Incas, and others. Just why some of them became so
-highly civilized while others, like some of our Indians,
-remained the lowly barbarians that they were, is explained
-partly by what the arch&aelig;ologists call environment;
-that is, by weather, rainfall, soil, natural food
-supplies as game, fish, wild fruits&mdash;in a word, environment
-means the things we find around and about us. In
-the end we find that while all these peoples belonged to
-the same race they had formed different habits and
-<span class="pb" id="Page_25">25</span>
-customs and were really very different from one another
-in what is termed culture.</p>
-<p>As to what became of the Mound-builders, we cannot
-give very satisfactory answers. Some of them must
-have been destroyed by famine, disease, and warfare
-with enemies, just as were many of the nations of early
-history, in the Old World. Others probably gave up
-the habit of building Mounds, for some reason or other,
-and contented themselves with living just like other Indians.
-In this case, they were of course, the ancestors
-of the Indian tribes which we have known in historic
-times.</p>
-<p>In the following pages there are shown pictures and
-descriptions of the commoner relics found in the fields
-and taken from the Mounds. Most of these objects
-were used both by the Mound-builders and the Indians
-who did not build Mounds. Where this is not true, it
-is made plain in the descriptions. It is hoped that these
-pictures and descriptions will help the reader to understand
-the relics so freely found in Ohio, and that they
-will encourage those who may be interested further to
-visit the Ohio State Museum, in Columbus. Here the
-finest collections of Indian and Mound-builder relics to
-be found anywhere are displayed for the study and enjoyment
-of the public.</p>
-<h3 id="c10">HOW THINGS BEGAN</h3>
-<p>The Mound-builders, and all other peoples at some
-time during their existence, lived in the Stone Age
-period of human development. Throughout the countless
-centuries of the Stone Age, human beings did not
-know the use of metals, as such. Indeed, it is only
-<span class="pb" id="Page_26">26</span>
-during the past few centuries that men have known such
-things as iron and steel, to say nothing of other metals.
-Some of them made limited use of raw metals and minerals,
-believing them to be only peculiar kinds of stone,
-never dreaming that they could be melted and refined
-and cast into implements and ornaments. Stone and
-Flint were the &ldquo;metals&rdquo; of the Mound-builders and
-other primitive peoples, while bone, shell, clay, wood and
-fibers were also much used. If peoples of the Stone
-Age had not made their humble beginnings, we would
-not be today living in the Age of Iron and enjoying the
-conveniences of civilization. While the specimens illustrated
-and described in the following pages belonged
-altogether to the Mound-builders and the prehistoric
-Indians, they are very similar to those used by early
-peoples the world over. Their study will aid us in
-understanding and appreciating how things began.</p>
-<p>Those who may wish to know more of the story of
-the Mound-builders and the Indians will find numerous
-books on the subject in their local libraries. When not
-available otherwise, they may be found in the Library of
-the Ohio State Museum, in Columbus. The following
-are recommended:</p>
-<p>Publications of the Ohio State Arch&aelig;ological and
-Historical Society, in which may be found articles concerning
-the Ohio Indians, and reports of explorations
-of the ancient mounds.</p>

-</div>
-<p>Away back in the days when all human beings were
-simple Stone Age peoples, just beginning the long climb
-toward civilization, their first tool was nothing more
-than a Stone or Pebble, picked up along the stream,
-and used as a Hammer Stone or Hand Hammer. They
-would want to crack a nut for its kernel, to break a bone
-for its marrow, or to frighten away a cave bear or
-hyena that threatened them; and the Hammer Stone
-served their needs. Later, when they learned that by
-breaking, pounding and pecking, they could change the
-shape and form of other stones, in making tools, the
-Hammer Stone was once more their servant. It was
-used by primitive peoples the world over, including of
-course the Mound-builders and the Indians. From the
-humble Hammer Stone, as a beginning, we may trace
-without a break all the inventions and progress that man
-has made, from the very earliest times up to the present.
-Therefore the Hammer Stone may be rightly called the
-father of civilization.</p>

-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 12&mdash;Grooved Stone Hammer.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>At first, the human arm was the handle of the Stone
-Hammer. Later, primitive man discovered that he could
-&ldquo;work&rdquo; stone by pecking and grinding it with another
-harder stone. He then supplied his Stone Hammer with
-a groove, and lashed it to a wooden handle by means of
-a rawhide thong. This handle not only gave him a
-longer reach, but added more power to his blow.</p>
-<p>Putting a groove on a Stone Hammer was really a
-very important step in human development, for it made
-of the tool an actual piece of personal property, which
-the owner would want to carry around with him as he
-moved from place to place and which, perhaps, would
-be handed down from father to son.</p>
-<p>In Ohio, the ancient Indian tribes used the Grooved
-Hammer quite freely, and while none have been found
-in Mounds, it is probable that the Mound-builders also
-made use of it.</p>

-</div>
-<p>For crushing and grinding corn and seeds into meal,
-primitive peoples used simple stone implements, several
-of which are shown above. The type of Pestle, shown at
-the upper left, known as the Bell-shaped Pestle, is found
-abundantly in Ohio and near-by states. They were used
-with wooden Mortars or flat stones, and sometimes with
-shallow stone mortars, like that shown at the upper
-right, and were suitable either for pounding or grinding.</p>
-<p>The lower specimen in the picture, known as a Roller
-Pestle, was used like a modern rolling-pin.</p>
-<p>Stone Pestles are rarely found in Mounds, but were
-used mostly by the primitive Indian tribes.</p>
-<p>The stone Pestle and Mortar were man&rsquo;s first grist-mill,
-out of which developed the water-driven grist-mills

-<p>These, with the Grooved Axe illustrated on the following

-used as wedges. With the Celt, when used as a Chisel
-or Hand-hatchet, the human arm was the handle. If it
-served as a Hatchet, Tomahawk, or Axe, it was lashed
-to a wooden handle by means of rawhide thongs.</p>
-<p>The Celt was used for a great variety of purposes.
-In Ohio and near-by states it is often called a &ldquo;skinning
-stone,&rdquo; and it would have been a very convenient tool
-for removing the hides of animals. Some Celts are very
-rough in appearance, with only the edges ground to a

-<p>The Celt is a very ancient tool, and is found in large

-<p>It is interesting to compare the modern Steel Axe,

-stone implements of prehistoric times and to note how,
-little by little, they have been improved and perfected.
-The present-day Axe or hatchet is comparatively light
-and thin and the handle is inserted through a hole or
-into a socket. Stone tools, no matter how the handle
-is attached, must be heavier and thicker, because stone
-will not stand the strain of hard use as will steel.</p>
-<p>The Ohio Mound-building peoples simply lashed
-wooden handles to their ungrooved Axes or Celts, using
-rawhide thongs. These, when they dried, held very
-tightly and made a very useful tool. The ancient Indians
-also used this method, and in addition they pecked
-grooves around their Axes to supply a firmer fastening
-for the thong. The above drawings show the Grooved
-Axe, and how the handle was secured. This implement
-served as an Axe, a Hatchet or a Tomahawk, according

-<p>Primitive man used Stone a long time before finding
-what proved to be a very superior variety, Flint, a rough
-block of which is shown on the left in the picture. Possibly
-he chanced upon a piece of Flint and in using it as
-a Hammer Stone noticed that it broke into thin flakes
-with sharp edges, and with this knowledge he soon
-learned to make Flint Knives, Scrapers, Arrow-points,
-Drills, and other cutting and piercing tools. For example,
-from the rough piece of Flint, &ldquo;A,&rdquo; the arrowmaker
-struck off a few flakes with his Stone Hammer,
-producing the piece marked &ldquo;B,&rdquo; which has something
-of the shape of the final point. Then by means of the
-chipping tool of deer antler, marked &ldquo;E,&rdquo; he pressed off
-thin flakes from the edges of &ldquo;B,&rdquo; and produced &ldquo;C,&rdquo;
-and finally the finished point, &ldquo;D.&rdquo;</p>

-<p>Perhaps the earliest tools made from Flint were
-simple flakes, struck from a block of flint by means of
-a hammerstone. &ldquo;B,&rdquo; in the picture, shows two of these
-flakes, which remind us, in shape, of a modern knife
-blade or a safety razor blade. At first they were simply
-held in the fingers, but later probably were mounted in
-wooden or bone handles. In &ldquo;C&rdquo; is shown the &ldquo;core&rdquo;
-of flint from which the flake or blade was struck off. In
-time primitive peoples, including the Mound-builders
-and the Indians, came to make more pretentious knife-blades,
-like that shown as &ldquo;D.&rdquo;</p>
-<p>Scrapers of various sorts were made from flint, and
-served many purposes. The simplest form, a mere flake
-of flint, is the top specimen in &ldquo;A,&rdquo; while an improved
-type, with notches for securing it to a handle is shown
-below it. They were used for scraping wood, bone and

-are abundant in village sites and on the surface of the

-used like an ordinary punch of today, with a twisting

-as the one on the left, holes were made in softer stones
-like granite and slate.</p>
-<p>In &ldquo;B&rdquo; is shown the manner in which Flint points

-</div>
-<p>Next to Stone and Flint, the Mound-builders prized
-Bone for making implements and ornaments. Above
-(B, C) are shown two Bone Awls, which served for
-piercing leather and bark, and also as &ldquo;tableware&rdquo; in
-eating their meals. Other things made from bone were
-Harpoons and Arrowheads (A), Fish Hooks (D),
-Scrapers (F), Hoes, Needles (E), and Ornaments such
-as Beads and Pendants.</p>
-<p>With some of the Ohio Mound-builders and prehistoric
-Indians, Bone was almost as important as Flint
-and Stone, and was used for many different purposes.</p>

-</div>
-<p>The Mound-builders and some of the Indians made
-their pots and pans out of clay, of which there is a great
-abundance in the river valleys of Ohio. They tempered
-or hardened the clay by mixing it with ground-up rock
-or shells, molded it into the desired shape, and baked
-the vessel in an open fire.</p>
-<p>Many of these ancient pots have designs like &ldquo;B&rdquo;
-and &ldquo;C,&rdquo; which were made with small sticks, or perhaps
-with pieces of flint or bone, before burning.</p>
-<p>In size, pottery vessels range all the way from that
-of a thimble to a bushel basket. They were used for the
-most part for cooking, storing and preserving food, but
-many of the highly decorated pots found in the mounds
-were probably made purposely as tributes to the dead.</p>

-<p>The Mound-builders wove serviceable cloth from the
-tough fibers of plants and the inner bark of certain trees.
-The sample shown as &ldquo;A&rdquo; resembles the homespun linen
-of the days of our pioneer grandmothers, and in &ldquo;B&rdquo;
-a piece of the same sample is magnified to show the
-weave. Cloth, as well as the skins of animals, was used
-for clothing by the Mound-builders, and they probably
-knew how to weave thick blankets to protect them from
-the cold in winter. There are many samples of Mound-builder
-Cloth, as well as of woven bark matting, in the
-Ohio State Museum. These show half a dozen or more
-different weaving patterns, of which the weave shown
-in the above picture is but one. Copper implements
-found in the mounds were very often wrapped in Cloth,
-which was preserved throughout the centuries by the
-chemical action of the Copper.</p>
-<p>Some of the prehistoric Indians also wove cloth, but
-none of them was as skilled as the Mound-builders.</p>

-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 24&mdash;Implements and Ornaments of Copper.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>Although strictly a Stone Age people, the Mound-builders
-used Copper, Silver and other native metals.
-They had not learned to melt these, but pounded the
-metal into the desired shape, afterward polishing the
-objects by rubbing. The objects shown in the picture
-are all made of Copper. &ldquo;A&rdquo; is a Bracelet and &ldquo;B&rdquo; is a
-Celt, or ungrooved Axe. &ldquo;C&rdquo; shows two views of what
-are called Ear-spools. These were worn as ornaments
-in the ears, and probably signified some particular station
-in life. The Mound-builders obtained their copper
-from the shores of Lake Superior, where it is found
-near the surface of the ground. Many of the pits they
-dug there are still to be seen. Silver was also obtained
-by them in the same region.</p>
-<p>Besides Copper and Silver, the Mound-builders used
-Galena, or Lead-ore, and Iron, which they probably obtained
-from fallen meteors. The non-Mound-building
-Indians used copper to a lesser extent.</p>

-</div>
-<p>Beads always have been popular with human beings
-as articles of personal adornment. The Mound-builders
-and other Indians used them in great numbers, samples
-of which are shown in the picture. From left to right
-there are: Beads made of fresh-water pearls, which are
-found in the mounds by the thousands; a &ldquo;breast-pin&rdquo; of
-sea-shell decorated with the effigy of an insect, and a
-Bear Tusk with a Pearl set in it, used as a pendant for
-a necklace.</p>
-<p>The Mound-builders made Pendants and Beads and
-other ornaments, some of which were sewed onto cloth,
-out of Copper, Mica, Tortoise-shell, Stone and Bone.
-Many Buttons about as large around as a dime, made
-of sandstone and covered with thin layers of copper or
-silver, have been found in the burial mounds. Some of
-the Mound-builders even wore rings of copper on their
-fingers.</p>

-<p class="pcap"><span class="sc">Fig. 26&mdash;Mound-builder Designs.</span></p>
-</div>
-<p>The Mound-builders were artists, carving and cutting
-a variety of patterns in Bone, Mica, Shell, Copper,
-Clay and Stone. Without doubt they worked in other
-materials too, such as Wood and Bark, but these, of
-course, have entirely disappeared along with other perishable
-materials. We have seen examples of their
-artistic ability in the great geometrical circles, squares
-and octagons which they built up of earth around some
-of their burial mounds.</p>
-<p>At the left in the picture is a section of a human leg
-bone carved with an attractive design. This was no
-doubt a sort of family relic or a memento of some relative
-who had died. In the middle of the picture is a
-rare design, possibly representing the universe, cut from
-a thin sheet of copper. At the right is the foot of an
-eagle, cut out of a thin sheet of mica, as skillfully as
-anyone could do it today.</p>
-<p>The finest examples of Mound-builder art are the
-many tobacco pipes taken from the Mounds.</p>

-</div>
-<p>The Mound-builders cultivated and smoked Tobacco
-long before civilized people knew of the plant. Above
-is a picture of one of their Tobacco Pipes, in which they
-have shown their artistic ability by carving it in the
-image of the Dog, their only domestic animal. Several
-hundred pipes like this one have been found in mounds
-in Ohio, representing many different animals and birds,
-and the human form has also been found. The American
-Indian not only taught the white man the use of
-tobacco, but it was probably from pipes very much like
-those of the Mound-builders, with stem and bowl, from
-which our modern tobacco-pipes are copied.</p>
-<p>This Pipe is made of Ohio Pipestone, which is found
-in Scioto County. The Tobacco Pipes of the Mound-builders
-and prehistoric Indians are made not only of
-this material, but of several kinds of stone, including
-limestone, slate, steatite or soapstone, and granite.</p>

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
-public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg&#8482; concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">www.gutenberg.org</a>.

-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg&#8482;,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
