The so-called Fort Ancient culture is applied to people living in what later became southern Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana and Kentucky from around 1000 to 1750 AD (after the Adena and Hopewell cultures). They were contemporary with the Erie culture of northern Ohio.
Their houses seem to have been rectangular "cabins" about 30 feet long and 20 feet wide, constructed of strong timber frames faced with wattle and daub, with thatched roofs; these houses were grouped close together in large villages (perhaps towns is a better term) around a central plaza, with truncated earth mounds topped with wooden "temples" - echoing the Central American stone temple communities.
Each town was protected by a palisade fence of tall wooden logs; over time some of the Fort Ancient houses and defences were re-built in stone.
These were clearly permanent settlements, with large areas under cultivation near each town. Storage and refuse pits point to long periods of habitation in the same place.
