Ancient Trails, Ancient Tales: The Effigy Mounds of Walworth County and Southern Wisconsin
One-thousand years ago, Indigenous peoples Wisconsin built systems of earthen sculptures to mark the burial places of the dead. These ‘effigy’ mounds are some of the rarest types of burial mounds on the planet, and nearly all stood within or very near the borders of Wisconsin. Join State Archaeologist Amy Rosebrough for a celebration of our state’s deep Indigenous heritage and honor the ancestors who rest within what is now Walworth County and southern Wisconsin. This free program is brought to you by the Walworth County Historical Society, and will be held in the Library Community Center.
