A once large number of Indigenous North American earthworks that was partially destroyed by local construction. The remaining mound survived due to its location in Mound Cemetery, which is home to the highest number of American Revolutionary War officer burials in the country.
The Marietta Earthworks is an archaeological site located at the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio Rivers in Washington County, Ohio, United States. Most of this Hopewellian complex of earthworks is now covered by the modern city of Marietta. Archaeologists have dated the ceremonial site's construction to approximately 100 BCE to 500 CE.
