I was thinking of creating a timeline involving a great civilisation starting on the Mississippi river sometime around 3000-2000BC. Does anyone have any good ideas about how this would develop? I am wondering whether it would be similar to the Mohenjo-Daro civilisation, flourishing and then disappearing (without knowing what happened to it, and barely knowing any of its culture) or the way of Egypt, with a monarchy lasting thousands of years. If so, and there was a Mississippi civilisation at that time, would this arise a history of America similar to the Mediterranean?
