… and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world …

“Tis now the very witching time of night,
When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out
Contagion to this world; now could I drink hot blood,
And do such bitter business as the day
Would quake to look on.”

― William Shakespeare, Hamlet

Kinsey Road Mound Preserve – Xenia, Ohio

I visited this small, quiet, and unique Adena Mound when I was attending the Amateur Radio Hamvention in 2017. It is just about a 1/2 mile east of Xenia High School. Take Highlander Drive south off of Kinsey Road. These pictures were taken from the Mound Ct. Cul-de-sac just off of Highlander Drive. You can park on the Cul-de-sac, but not directly in front of the mound entryway according to the road parking signs. I was able to walk around the mound and see some of the encircling embankment which I believe may qualify this site to be called a Henge or Hengiform monument. There are some trails that lead down to the Oldtown Creek and loop through the small preserve. Lat/Long Coordinates are (39.710474,-83.912942). Click on the images to see a larger view.
