The Monumental Earthworks of Poverty Point heritage site of Unesco is an archaeological site in the parish of West Carroll, State of Louisiana, United States of America. The site is located on the eastern edge of an elevated landform, Macon Ridge, near Epps, in the Lower Mississippi Valley. The site bears testimony to a vanished cultural tradition, which scholars think, developed around, 4,000-2,500 years ago. According to Unesco, ‘The complex comprises five mounds, six concentric semi-elliptically ridges separated by shallow depressions and a central plaza; it was created and used for residential and ceremonial purposes by a society of hunter-fisher gatherers between 3700 and 3100 BP….’.

The term Poverty Point has been applied against the unfortunate ancient migrants who after being displaced by the Great Flood from their homland took hazardous sea routes and reached the heritage site and settled there, as it seems, for a few period of time before shifting to another area for smooth sailing of life.

It is completely wrong to use the word ‘Poverty Point’ to mark the early settlement sites of the historic group of people like the Shawnee, Powhatan, Waco, Tawakoni, Tonkawa, Karankawa, Quapaw, Mosapepea, Caddoan and Muskogean. Some of these people belonged to royal clans of ancient world, and were, perhaps, followers of Achyuta, an Arhant(also name of a place), who was also a mystic. Name Achyuta is also another name of Lord Vishnu. It seems, as if they were helped by Achyuta to arrive at this heritage sits to begin a new life.

Scholars are of the opinion that Poverty Point Culture also identifies the Watson Brake region where eleven earthwork mounds were found near Quachita parish  in Louisiana. The period assigned to this site is about 3500 B.C.; Watson Brake is one of the earliest mound complex in the United States of America. Next oldest is the Poverty Point Culture, which according to scholars, thrived between 1730  and 1350 B.C.
