Smaller, Oto Sioux Earthen Circle Discovered at the Strawtown, Indiana Solar Tempe Henge Site

The earthwork is definably a henge. Interior circular platform, interior ditch with an outer wall. This also is devinitive proof that the Oto Sioux were in part the Hopewell Mound Builders. Another hnge site that has been plowed for years is north of  Cambridge City, Indiana that has a very similar appearance even though its inner ditch was originally much deeper. www.nephilimgiants.net : Indiana's Lost Ancient Adena Sun Temples

The Fort and Mound

The main work is a circle about three hundred feet in diameter, thrown up in the center, but apparently level and surrounded by a ditch that Mr. Parker says was about six feet deep when he first saw it. Fifty yards to the south of the large circle is a lesser circle about fifty feet in diameter and now almost obliterated

IPFW archaeologists determined that this Hopewell earthen circle was affiliated with the Oto Sioux. Additional Oto Sioux burial mounds and earthworks have been identified at the Mann Site in Posey County, Indiana.

Fifty yards to the south of the large circle is a lesser circle about fifty feet in diameter and now almost obliterated.

South of the large circle this earthwork was discovered.  It is believed that these embankments are the smaller 50-foot diameter circle.
