Newark Earthworks and the Hopewell Geometric Complex
The Newark Earthworks in Ohio represent the most extensive geometric earthen complex in the world, featuring a 20-acre circle connected to a 50-acre octagon. A historical 56-mile "Great Hopewell Road" once connected the Newark site to similar formations in Chillicothe. Despite their scale and astronomical precision, much of these prehistoric structures have been destroyed by modern development, with the remaining portions currently situated on a golf course.
