The Ocmulgee River area in central Georgia has been inhabited for up to 17,000 years, showcasing a rich history marked by significant cultural contributions. Notable achievements include the construction of the Great Temple Mound by Mississippian-era people around 1,000 years ago and its role as a trade hub for the Creek Indians in the late 17th century. Despite suffering damage from railroads in the 19th century, preservation efforts led to the establishment of Ocmulgee National Monument in the 1930s, attracting visitors who develop a deep appreciation for its historical significance.
