Ohio earthworks are nominated for inclusion on UNESCO World Heritage List.
"...Ohio's American Indian earthworks are every bit as worthy of the world's respect as Egypt's pyramids, England's Stonehenge, or China's Great Wall."
"here in the seductive Ohio Valley are perhaps the greatest art monuments in the world."

aint that what i've have been saying!?
"Their scale is imposing by any standard: the Great Pyramid of Cheops would have fit inside the Wright Earthworks; four structures the size of the Colosseum of Rome would fit in the Octagon.."

And i was going to bring up The Ten Commandments, but I stopped myself.
I was under the impression that the sites were already protected on the state and national level-- in fact, I thought it was a requirement. I totally hope they make it onto the world list, but if they need protection, the state and feds should get going NOW.
You can have incredibly oppressive centralized governments, unfortunately, with little or no writing-- Aztecs and Incas, for a start. Plus, you don't need a world empire to be a murderous fiend.
