Pinson Mounds State Archaeological Park – Pinson, TN

I took Emily and Max on the equivalent of a school field trip to Pinson Mounds State Archaeological Park (in Pinson, TN). Pinson Mounds is the largest mound complex in Tennessee and is one of the largest Middle Woodland (A.D. 0 to A.D. 500) mound complexes in the United States. It was much more interesting than I thought it was going to be. We had a great afternoon. I lost Emily, however, when I went on 2 separate “Deano Conspiracy Rants” involving aliens and psychedelics. Neither would be approved on any school field trip.
