Cahokia Mounds' decline marks the end of Mississippian culture in the region.

The decline and abandonment of the Cahokia Mounds in the USA marked the end of the Mississippian culture in the region. This once-thriving native civilization was characterized by large earthen mounds, complex social structures, and extensive trade networks. The site of Cahokia was once one of the largest urban centers in pre-Columbian North America, with a population that rivaled contemporary European cities. However, environmental degradation, political unrest, and resource depletion contributed to the eventual decline of the civilization and the abandonment of the site. The discontinuation of activities at Cahokia symbolized the cultural shift and the end of an era for the Mississippian people in the region. #CahokiaMounds #MississippianCulture #NativeCivilization #CulturalShift
