Yes, there are Indian mounds in Missouri. These mounds were built by indigenous peoples in the region for various purposes, such as burial sites, ceremonial structures, and residential areas. The most well-known Indian mounds in Missouri are found at Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site, which is located near Collinsville, Illinois, just across the Mississippi River from St. Louis. These mounds are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cahokia Mounds, which preserves the largest pre-Columbian settlement north of Mexico.

ReneYes, there are several Indian mounds in Missouri. I personally know of 29 mounds in southern Missouri. One particular mound is aproximately 250ft at the base, and somewhere around 50ft tall. In one area, there are a group of 9 mounds, with the largest being 65ft wide and 130 ft long at the base, and around 15 ft high. I have been studying these sites for several years without disturbing them, and will not disclose their locations.
