The Ancient City of Cahokia
Cahokia is an ancient village close to the Mississippi River in the USA. This amazing site dates back to 700 AD and at one time over 20, 000 people lived there. Then suddenly, all of the people left Cahokia and no one knows why.
The Mississippian people who lived in Cahokia built big mounds of earth in the shape of pyramids. Often, they put a building on top of these mounds. The largest pyramid in Cahokia was over 10 storeys tall! The Mississippians built houses, temples and strong walls to protect their city, too.
They were also very clever people. The Mississippians even made a calendar; they used wooden poles and the sun to tell the time. They also had a playing field. Their favourite game was called ‘chunkey’.
The Mississippians were also good farmers. They grew crops like corn and tomatoes and hunted animals for food.
