The Spruce Run Earthworks consists of stone walls and mounds covering one acre of land near Galena in central Ohio.
The National Register of Historic Places added Spruce Run Earthworks to its registry in 1973, recognizing its significance as an Adena culture construction.
Native Americans of the Adena civilization engineered these earthen structures for ceremonial purposes, demonstrating their architectural capabilities and social organization.
