Linear and effigy mounds formerly located on the crest of the Monona-Wingra ridge. Several of these were surveyed by Increase A. Lapham in 1850. Village site was in the park below." This photograph was taken at the unveiling ceremonies of the memorial tablet which took place during the Fourth Annual Conference of the Society of American Indians at UW-Madison from October 6-11. |
