Take a visual tour of the remaining Serpent Mounds in the Ohio Valley. There are far more than the celebrated Serpent Mound in Adams County, Ohio. Serpent mounds existed in Warren County, Ohio with an identical counterpart near Holton, Indiana that can still be seen. The Serpent was symbolic of the sun, where it was incorporated in to the construction of henges and hilltop ceremonial centers.
