Emblematic Mounds And Animal Effigies is a book written by Stephen Denison Peet and first published in 1890. The book is a comprehensive study of the ancient mounds and effigies of North America, particularly those found in the Midwest region of the United States. Peet, who was an archaeologist and ethnologist, provides a detailed analysis of the various mound-building cultures that existed in the region and the significance of the animal effigies that were often found on these mounds. The book includes numerous illustrations and photographs of the mounds and effigies, as well as maps and diagrams to help the reader understand their location and layout. Peet's work is considered a seminal contribution to the study of North American prehistory and has been widely cited by subsequent scholars in the field. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of the indigenous peoples of North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
