Phyrigian Mounds\nA wide area in the vicinity of Gordion is full of mounds in varying sizes dating back to the period between the last quarter of the 8th century BC and the middle of the 6th century BC. The mounds are the tombs of the Phrygian nobles and notables. The Great Mound, which is the second biggest mound of Turkey with its height of 55m and a diameter of 300m, has a magnificent appearance.
The going is easy now on on Highway 92 through Nebraska's Mitchell Pass with its prominent sandstone formations on each side.  But the journey was rugged during the Westward Expansion of the mid-1800's when pioneers crossed in covered wagons over unpredictable terrain. These landmarks, assuring them that they were not lost, were a welcome sight!  Today, wooden signposts mark the places where the Oregon Trail passed through the area and the land is protected as a part of Scotts Bluff National Monument.

Homol'ovi is a Hopi word which means “Place of the Little Hills.† The name is very appropriate since the area is mostly flat with several buttes and other small mounds.  Between approximately 1260 and 1400 CE, the area was occupied by the Ancestral Hopi.  Several large villages were established during this period.  These villages were part of a larger network of settlements in the region, connected through trade and shared cultural practices.  The remains of these villages contain numerous artifacts, including pottery shards, stone tools, and remnants of structures.  The Homolovi sites provide important insights into the lives of the Ancestral Hopi, their agricultural practices, and their interactions with neighboring cultures.  By the late 14th century, the Homolovi villages were largely abandoned, likely due to environmental changes, resource depletion, or social factors.  Homolovi State Park, north of Winslow, Arizona, USA was established in 1986 with the help of the Hopi tribe who considered these lands a part of their ancestral homeland.  The park presently serves as a center of archeological research.  It is located near the Little Colorado River in a floodplain where the natives farmed their crops.  The largest of the park’s pueblos at one time contained an estimated 1,200 - 2,000 rooms.  The only remaining structure is the kiva in the oldest section of the pueblo.  The kiva was an underground house used for religious purposes.  The Hopi people continue to make pilgrimages to the site to renew the ties of their people to the land.  Also, the Hopi Tribe is actively involved in the management and interpretation of the park, ensuring that their ancestral heritage is respectfully and accurately represented.  Homolovi State Park today is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Ancestral Hopi and their connection to the land. It offers a unique opportunity to explore and learn about the ancient cultures that once thrived in the region.
