.- A thousand years ago, a city rose on the banks of the Mississippi River, near what eventually became St. Louis. Over miles of rich farms, public plazas and earthen mounds, the city — known today as Cahokia — was a thriving hub of immigrants, lavish feasting and religious ceremony. At its peak in the 1100s, Cahokia housed 20,000 people, greater than contemporaneous Paris. ....

The Mystery Deepens Over Why The Lost City of Cahokia Was Abandoned
17 APRIL 2021
For a couple of hundred years, Cahokia was the place to be in what is now the US state of Illinois. The bustling, vibrant city was at one time home to some 15,000 people, but by the end of the 14th century it was deserted – and researchers still aren t sure why.
 
A new study has been able to rule out one previous idea – that deforestation and overuse of the land around Cahokia caused excessive erosion and local flooding in the area, making it less inhabitable for Native Americans. ....

Examining the Reason Behind Cahokia s Abandonment
Wednesday, April 14, 2021
ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI According to a statement released by Washington University in St. Louis, Caitlin Rankin, now of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and her colleagues analyzed soils around an earthen mound dated to between A.D. 1050 and 1400 at Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site, which is located in southwestern Illinois. The ancient city, home to some 15,000 people around A.D. 1100, was surrounded by a wooden palisade made from tens of thousands of trees. It had been suggested that the city was abandoned because deforestation of the uplands surrounding Cahokia caused devastating environmental problems, including flooding in local creek drainages. But Rankin’s investigation of the Cahokia Creek floodplain revealed that the mound had been constructed on a stable ground surface.
