Just south of Lebanon, outside the village of Morrow, the new Little Miami High School marks the site of the Stubbs Earthworks. From there to the Ohio River, the Little Miami Valley once held the Hopewell era's second-largest concentration of earthworks, including the spectacular Turner site. The picturesque 1930s planned village of Mariemont is also a major archaeological site, and along Miami Bluff Drive a large, ancient earthen wall still stands among the trees.

Downtown Cincinnati has many fine hotels and restaurants. The newly-renovated Fountain Square stands where an elliptical earthwork once dominated this high Ohio River terrace. The Cincinnati Museum Center, in a beautiful 1930s train station, presents exhibits on the nature, history, archaeology, and cultures of the region. West of the city in Shawnee Lookout Park is Miami Fort, a well-preserved Hopewell earthwork crowning a steep, isolated promontory overlooking the confluence of the Great Miami and Ohio Rivers.
