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.
The Adena Indians, also called the Woodland Indians, were the first of three mound building cultures (the other ones were the Hopewell and Mississippian Indians). The Adena Indians lived around 2,000 to 2,500 years ago. The Hopewell flourished for about 500 years, around 300 BC. Last but certaintly not least, the Mississippians lived from around 800 to 1500 AD.
The Adena Indians inhabited the region of the Ohio River Valley, primarily during the Woodland period (circa 1000 BCE to 300 CE). The climate in this area was characterized by a temperate zone with distinct seasons, featuring warm summers and cold winters. This environment supported diverse flora and fauna, which allowed the Adena to engage in hunting, gathering, and early horticulture. The rich resources of the region played a crucial role in their development of complex societies and mound-building practices.
i think they play games like today but only older
