The second presentation in the Archaeological Institute of America Dayton Society's 2024-2025 Lecture Series presented by Dr. Brad Lepper, Senior Archaeologist World Heritage Program, Ohio History ConnectionSerpent Mound in Adams County is one of the largest and most spectacular earthen sculptures in the world. The age of the serpent is a subject of much current debate with some archaeologists arguing that it was built by the Adena culture at around 300 B.C.E. and others favoring the Fort Ancient culture at around 1100 C.E. Although much about Serpent Mound still is shrouded in mystery, ancient cave paintings in Missouri may provide a key to unlocking some of its secrets.
This lecture is scheduled to take place in person in the Science Center Auditorium (SC 114) at The University of Dayton.
