Description
This Native American Mound House, is part of an open-air museum near Springfield, Ohio, that re-creates a variety of different dwellings and structures that one might have seen in different Eastern Woodland Indian villages. In particular the dwellings represent what the Shawnee Indian Chief Tecumseh might have seen during his attempts to unite Eastern tribes against American colonists in a Native American Confederacy. This particular dwelling comes from the Southeastern United States. Tecumseh ultimately died during the Battle of 1812, having allied with the British in the conflict.
The village is located in the vicinity of two former Shawnee villages (Peckuwe and Kispoko) that were attacked by George Rogers Clark, during the battle of Peckuwe in 1780.
