1930's picture of the only known spiral mound from the Lamar Culture
The Lamar site contains the only known example of a spiral mound in North America.  This unique 20 ft. tall mound was built and used by Native people from 1350 till the late 1500's.  This mound is accessable during low water levels of the Ocmulgee River with a ranger lead tour several times a year.  Call for reservations to this exciting ranger lead hike.

View of the front of the Art Moderne visitor center at Ocmulgee National  Monument  

Did You Know?
The beautiful visitor center at Ocmulgee National Monument is an example of Art Moderne architecture. It reflects a design that rejected the vertical sharp lines and corners of Art Deco buildings. Curves instead of corners, glass bricks and white plastered walls characterized this building style.
