Description

Here we see the steep walls of the Cedarville fort, located near Massie's Creek. This is the largest fortification in Greene County. It was mapped in 1848 and is approximately 12 acres in area. Older writers claim this to be of Fort Ancient culture; however, this is not possible. These fortifications, as well as the mound located slightly north, are in all likelihood of the Hopewell culture, possibly of the Adena culture.
