Wolf Plains, Archaeological site in Athens County, Ohio.
The Wolf Plains Group includes 30 prehistoric structures with 22 conical mounds and 9 circular enclosures spread across a glacial terrace.
The National Register of Historic Places added Wolf Plains in 1974, recognizing 25 earthworks as structures contributing to the archaeological record.
The mounds represent the engineering capabilities of Late Adena societies who constructed these earthworks between 2000 and 3000 years ago.
The Archaeological Conservancy maintains the Dorr 2 Mound while other structures remain on private property with limited public access.
Located near the Hocking River, this collection of Native American mounds represents one of the largest concentrations of Adena structures in Ohio.
