Set on a bluff 250 feet above the Little Miami River, the museum traces the history of the pre-European inhabitants from 10,000 BC to 1800 AD. It is part of a 100-acre complex, with miles of earthen walls, built almost 3,000 years ago. Originally thought to be a fortification, it is now considered to have been more a ceremonial area.
