The city of Cahokia was built by an unknown people belonging to the Mississippian culture, at some time in the 9th century AD and it flourished for around 700 years. We do not know the name of this tribe, or any of their personal names, or their language, or many other aspects of their society.

The largest most advanced settlement in North American prior to the arrival of Europeans was the Mississippian city of Cahokia. Located in what is now western central Illinois (due east of St. Louis, Missouri), not much remains but a few earthworks, as most of the surviving sites were destroyed in the period between the mid 1800's to the 1920's by land speculators and farming. An estimated 20,000 people or more lived in the city of Cahokia, far exceeding the largest city of Europe at that time (c. 1100 AD). The city of Cahokia is the sight of the largest earthen structure in North America, Monk's Mound, and the city at this time was protected by a two mile long palisade around Monk's Mound and the 40 acre Grand Plaza. Predating that was the Mayan civilization of Central and South America.
