2018 Map of Monks Mound
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Monks Mound and the American Bottoms floodplains define this landscape just east of the Mississippi River. The 2018 survey reveals a densely layered environment where ancient earthworks like Rattlesnake Mound sit alongside the industrial and residential corridors of Granite City, Madison, and Collinsville. This era is characterized by an extensive infrastructure of drainage and transit, featuring the Cahokia Canal, Harding Ditch, and the Norfolk Southern railway lines that cut through former wetlands.
