Middle Woodland hilltop enclosures: The built environment, construction and function

This dissertation examines the structure and function of Middle Woodland period (200 B.C.-A.D. 400) hilltop enclosures in the Ohio Valley. It describes the physical structure and temporal development of hilltop enclosure architecture and analyzes the associated activity areas. The concept of the built environment, which incorporates dimensions of space, time, and communication, is used to develop a holistic interpretation of the earthwork systems.
