Why I chose this place
My name is Jeff Player. I am a senior at Kennesaw State University majoring in Technical Communication. I have lived in the Fulton and Cobb County area my entire life. Recently, I have become more interested in learning about the Native American people who once lived on the land where I now live.
I decided to visit the Etowah Indian Mounds because they looked interesting and different from the sites we discussed in class. I wanted to compare what I saw there with what I had already learned about other historic Native American sites. I also wanted to better understand the history connected to this region.
I live only about 30 minutes away. Admission was around $5 when I visited. If you live nearby and are interested, I recommend giving it a try. The trip was easy to plan and affordable. Most importantly, it was a really cool experience.
