"The Birdman Tablet, the official logo of Cahokia Mounds, was found during excavations on the east side of Monks Mound in 1971. The image on the 'front' of the tablet is of a human, dressed in eagle (or falcon) regalia. The 'reverse' of the tablet is plain or cross-hatched, suggesting the pattern on the skin of a snake."

A trip to Cahokia Mounds and a climb up Monks Mound was a perfect way to spend a beautiful day with two beautiful grandchildren!

    Still learning...

    This is a place for daily images that represent memories.

    I will try to "focus" on the best each day.
