The Problem of Ohio Mounds is a book written by Cyrus Thomas that explores the mysterious mounds found in the state of Ohio. The author delves into the history of these mounds, which were built by indigenous peoples thousands of years ago, and attempts to unravel the many mysteries surrounding them. Thomas examines the various theories and hypotheses that have been put forward over the years, including the idea that the mounds were built by a lost race of people, and provides his own insights and interpretations based on his extensive research. The book is an intriguing and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Native American peoples who once inhabited Ohio.It has been more than hinted at by at least one person whose statement is entitled to every belief, that among the Cherokees dwelling in the mountains there existed certain artists whose professed occupation was the manufacture of stone pipes, which were by them transported to the coast and there bartered away for articles of use and ornament foreign to and highly esteemed among the members of their own tribe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
