. The
Adena
Culture
(500
B.C.-
200
A.D.)
,
named
for a
mound
found
on the
Chillicothe
estate
of
Thomas
Worthington
,
lived
primarily
in
present-day
Ohio
and
parts
of
Pennsylvania
,
Indiana
,
Kentucky
and
West
Virginia
. They
built
large
effigy
and
burial
mounds
. The
Adena
were
primarily
hunter-gatherers
, but
began
to
grow
squash
and
some
weedy
plants
. The
Woodland
Period
,
which
includes
the
Adena
,
Hopewell
and
Late
Woodland
cultures
(1000
B.C.-1000
A.D.)
is
notable
because
the
cultures
experimented
with
agriculture
,
established
more
permanent
settlements
,
made
technological
advances
in
hunting
and
food
processing
, and
demonstrated
increased
complexity
in
social
organization
. In
Ohio
,
elaborate
burial
mounds
and
earthworks
,
specialized
craft
products
and
long
distance
trade
are
evidence
of these
cultural
changes
.
