Digging for the Past series.
Clearly, accurately, and respectfully, these authors reveal the history of the Cahokia Mounds in southern Illinois, covering the Woodland Indians who built the mounds in stages beginning around 1000 CE, the developers who wanted to bulldoze them, and the scientists who worked to save and interpret them. Photographs and re-created representations illustrate the text. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.

Digging for the Past series.
The books in this series are co-authored by working archaeologists. The body of the accessible text covers the history of archaelogical activities at the site and includes information about modern-era excavations. Well-captioned though somewhat small, photos archival material, and illustrations enhance the useful volumes. Maps, reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Digging for the Past titles: Stonehenge and Valley of the Kings.]
