Adena is the name given by modern historians to a whole prehistoric culture, not a single tribe. One theory says that the Adena people came from Mexico, moved along the Mississippi river to the Ohio valley; others claim that they always lived in the Ohio valley area and later expanded into Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

The Adena culture was probably absorbed into the Hopewell culture around 700 AD.
