Which area on the map did the mound builders live in?

Mound Builders lived in North Amerika. They were people who built mounds over vast areas ranging from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico and some found in the Mississippi River to the Appalachian.

EXPLANATION  

In North American archeology, there was a group of people called Mound Builders. Mound Builders were people who built mounds over vast areas ranging from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the mounds were found in the Mississippi River region to the Appalachian. The biggest mounds were found in Ohio and the Mississippi valley.

The origin of the mound was not known clearly, which makes many people consider it mysterious. Europeans considered that Native Americans were not that advanced to carry out this extraordinary development. Then the term "Builder Mound" developed to name those who built the mound.

In 1894, Cyrus Thompson of the Smithsonian Institution researched the issue. He concluded that the Mound was indeed built by Native Americans. Clarence Moore who also dug many mound sites in the South believed that the construction of the Mound in the south was strongly influenced by the Mesoamerican civilization.

Archaeologists point out that the mounds in North America were built over a long period of time by various walks of life, from peasants who lived to settlers to movers. This prehistoric mound had various forms and functions. Among its functions were as a cemetery, monument, or temple as a place of worship.

the exact role and status of women in the roman world, and indeed in most ancient societies, has often been obscured by the biases of both ancient male writers and 19-20th century ce male scholars, a situation only relatively recently redressed by modern scholarship which has sought to more objectively assess women's status, rights, duties, representation in the arts, and daily lives; and all this from almost exclusively male source material dealing with a male-dominated roman world.

women in mythology

unlike some other ancient cultures such as the greeks who had formed a creation myth where woman was a creature secondary to man and, more specifically, in the form of pandora, a bringer of unhappiness and vices, the romans had a more neutral approach where humanity, and not specifically the male, was created by the gods from earth and water. ovid's metamorphoses, for example, does not specify whether the first human was a man or a woman. at least in a physical sense then men and women were not regarded as belonging to a different species as in the greek world, a view often reiterated in roman medical treatises.
