Mt Vernon Ohio's Cemeteries Adena Burial Mounds

 Mt Vernon Ohio's Cemeteries Adena Burial Mounds


A once large Adena burial mound in Knox County, Ohio, situated on a high table of land, has been significantly reduced by modern burials. One of the most interesting henge and burial mounds in Ohio is also in Knox County, Ohio. www.nephilimgiants.net : Fredericktown, Ohio Adena Serpentine Henge and Mound Aligned to the Spring Equinox Sunrise


Despite the incursion of a modern burial vault a hundred years ago, the general outline of the Adena burial mound was still visible. Later, another burial was placed on the top of the mound, which significantly reduced its height. 

Mound View Cemetery says that this is not a burial mound but was made to store bodies in the winter. I have never seen one of these before. Why would you place them in the dirt over the winter when you have a mausoleum? This doesn't make sense.
