Mississippian culture
|
The temple-mound culture developed in various areas of the Mississippi River basin from the 9th to the 16th centuries. Temples were built on square or oval platforms, and villages and towns were formed around these ceremonial centers. This type of village structure is considered to have been influenced by Mesoamerican culture.
