Today's _Washington Post_
(http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPlate/1997-09/22/080l-092297-idx.
html) has a lengthy piece on ancient mound-builders in North America.
Exerpt:

"Ancient Native American hunter-gatherer groups apparently were not
unruly gaggles, as many experts have assumed. As far back as 5,400 years
ago -- 2,000 years earlier than generally believed -- they were capable
of large, organized, construction projects and were summering in co-op
communities, according to a new study of mysterious earthen mounds in
the deep South."

Harrison "Round up the wagons! Here comes an unruly gaggle! Oh, _why_
can't those people learn to summer in a co-op community like civilized
folks!" Sherwood
