Arledge Mounds I and II, Archaeological mounds in Circleville, US.

Two connected Native American burial mounds stand in a farm field, with the larger reaching 20 feet high and 120 feet in diameter.

The Arledge Mounds, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, represent significant evidence of indigenous settlements in Ohio before European arrival.

These burial structures demonstrate advanced engineering capabilities of the Adena people, who constructed elaborate earthworks for ceremonial and burial purposes.

The archaeological site spans 4 acres of land and requires special permission to visit, as it remains undisturbed for research and preservation purposes.

The mounds exhibit an unusual characteristic where they connect at their base, making them one of only two known paired mounds in Ohio.
