Kolomoki: Woodland settlement and monumental work

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

The park places Kolomoki's major earthworks in a Woodland-period setting, not automatically a later Mississippian city. Pluckhahn's research synthesis revisits occupation history, settlement and economy rather than classifying the site by mound size alone.

Woodland settlement and earthwork context Main research synthesis approximately 350–750 CE; broader park chronology extends later Settlement archaeology, mound sequences, ceramics, environmental context and modern stewardship Blakely, Georgia, United States (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, farming, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting or travel permission is implied.

Blakely, Georgia, United States is a modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. Households and gatherings supported major earthen construction; monument size alone does not make the site Mississippian or a centralized nation.

Organisation politique et échelle communautaire

Households and gatherings supported major earthen construction; monument size alone does not make the site Mississippian or a centralized nation. Published chronological ranges differ, and Swift Creek or Weeden Island classifications are not single tribes or fixed ethnic borders.

Transformation ultérieure, patrimoine vivant et réception moderne

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Archaeological labels and a later place-name do not recover every ancient speaker's self-identification. Later colonial, research, reconstruction and stewardship events are dated separately from the main archaeological context.

Woodland context The park places Kolomoki's major earthworks in a Woodland-period setting, not automatically a later Mississippian city.

Séquence historique

Uma cronologia breve e documentada

Ces repères servent d'orientation et ne constituent pas une histoire complète.

  1. Main research interval

    Pluckhahn's synthesis focuses on this span; the park gives a broader range, so no single end date is imposed on every feature.

    [S2]

  2. Variable local sequence

    The state interpretation extends its occupation frame later than the book's principal interval.

    [S1]

  3. State preservation

    Public acquisition created a park framework after much older Indigenous history.

    [S3]

  4. Research synthesis

    A book reconsidered site chronology and the relationships among households, ceremony and status.
