USGS Topo · Published 1889About this map
The Amana colonies and their distinct communal settlement pattern dominate the southern portion of this 1888 survey, clustered near the winding Iowa River. Each village, from West Amana and Hohe Amana to East Amana, is clearly defined during a period of peak cultural isolation and agricultural self-sufficiency. This landscape is a patchwork of communal labor and transportation connectivity, where three major rail lines bisect the prairie to serve these burgeoning agricultural centers.
