Wonder Graphics: Cahokia Mound Pyramid

Ukas · Nov 5, 2004

HooDoo requested this one: Cahokia Monk's Mound pyramid. And I know Oz loves pyramids too... Had not heard about mound pyramids before, so this has been also a somewhat educational experience.

Splash is just a crop + effects, so didn't include a preview. Might do another in future. Perhaps Rufe knows what to do. I hope.

Other than that it's a fine little package with everything needed inside.

Have fun,

Ukas

Where/Who is Cahokia, and why did he/she/they need a monk? :confused:

Educate me too.

HooDoo · Nov 5, 2004

Ukas,

Thank you so much for being a good sport and going ahead and making this wonder even after I pestered you. It looks great. :goodjob:

Mrtn,

Look at my post, #6, in the Nubian Pyramid thread on page two of this forum (I don't know how to post a link).

P.S. And look how well Europeans and pushy guys from Texas are already working together.

Everything is going to be all right, World.

Cahokia, near modern St. Louis, was the capital of the most advanced Native American civilization north of Mexico. These people, the Mississippians, built pyramids for many of the same reasons that the Maya and later the Aztecs would, to worship the Gods, but they also served as burial mounds. Monk is just a name that european settlers gave the mound when they first saw it.

Very nice Ukas! But it looks kind of odd though...

And, given that I have Cahokia in my own mod, this is going straight in!

Is there a leaderhead for the Cahokia yet? Them and the Pueblo are badly needed civs.

@Hoodoo : I really hope that your wishes will become true :goodjob:

But I'm less confident than you for future...

I'm on it, but may be a while

Cahokia is #2 on my list after Pueblo.

Dom Pedro II · Nov 5, 2004

I think I'm going to have a Cahokia minor civ resource and make this a wonder that can be built in a city with the Cahokia in its radius.

Ukas · Nov 6, 2004

Thanks again guys.

Happy to be useful, old mine! :hatsoff:

Its so dark on my monitor that I can't see it Rufus.....But seeing as almost all of your wonder splashes are works of art I'll take your work for it.

Master Kodama · Nov 6, 2004

Superb new wonder!

@Rufus: The splash is beautiful, but the surroundings looks much to jungle-like for the area around St. Louis, Missouri, where Cahokia is located. It would probably be better for a South American or Meso-American pyrimid splash.

Oh i had nothing in mind, just thought it looked funny...
