Indian Mound, Danville, AL October 16, 2012
There are actually two different entities
here. The Copena Indian mound built around 2,000 years ago and
then a Native American Education Center which has very little on the
mounds and the Copenan people but is more oriented towards the later
Alabama Cherokee Tribes. I was most interested in and came for the
mound.

One can stop along the road into the park
and the Education Center to view and walk on the mound. We are
looking south.

From the east end of the square topped mound
I am looking at the Education Center.

The trees give some relative height
prospective to the 27 foot tall mound.
