Balmoral Mound Complex

3D Model

The site consists of 3 platform mounds that form an equilateral triangle. Mound A, the southwesternmost of the group, measures 11 feet (3.4 m) in height, with the base being 150 feet (46 m) by 165 feet (50 m). Mound B, the northernmost mound, is a dome shaped mound measuring 9 feet (2.7 m) in height, with the base being 100 feet (30 m) by 130 feet (40 m). The northernmost mound in the triangle, Mound C, is also a dome shaped mound and measures 8 feet (2.4 m) in height, with the base being 130 feet (40 m) by 150 feet (46 m). Core samples of Mounds A and C suggest they were built at roughly the same time and in single stages. Wikipedia
