	Indian Mounds Mystify Archeologists
		Archeologists continue to comb what is now the Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site, looking for clues that will tell them what happened here -- why the city and its culture vanished and why the people who lived here built more than a hundred earthen mounds, many of which are still scattered across the countryside.
		Archeologists have found that a large building -- 105 feet long, 48 feet wide and about 50 feet high -- was once positioned on top of the mound.
		Archeologists believe other bodies buried near the ruler are the remains of those who were sacrificed to serve him in the next life.
