There are over 180,000 historical markers in the United States.
35,000 museums.
21,588 historical societies (including the American Historical Association, the oldest and largest group of professional historians in the world).
2,600+ historic landmarks (NHLs).
25 World Heritage Sites.
While we don’t have many remaining ancient sites, we do have interesting pre-Columbian ones like Meadowcroft Rockshelter, Montezuma Castle National Monument (and many other cliff dwellings), Cahokia Mounds (and many other earthen mounds), and Cactus Hill—the oldest known archeological site in the US.
The past is everywhere.
And, as I always say, everywhere you walk is ancient ground.
So, go!
Visit. Learn something new.
(Or, better, something old.)
