Where did the Cahokia Indians live?

Answer 1

Cahokia is a large Mississippian (AD 1000-1600) agricultural settlement and mound group located on the American Bottom of the Mississippi River in Illinois. At its height, Cahokia was the center of the Mississippian culture, with a population of about 20,000 people and trade connections throughout the midwest.

Many of Cahokia's outlying settlements in the vicinity of East St. Louis were investigated in advance of highway construction. The researcher most associated with Cahokia would probably be Melvin L. Fowler, who conducted excavations in the 1960s and 1970s.
