Leake Mounds: Leake Mounds is an archaeological site in Bartow County, Georgia, built and used by peoples of the Swift Creek Culture.
The mounds sometimes have a diameter of 30 metres (98 ft). Most of the mounds are in well-drained areas. Termite mounds usually outlive the colonies themselves. If the inner tunnels of the nest are exposed it is usually dead. Sometimes other colonies, of the same or different species, occupy a mound after the original builders' deaths. [1]
