The Newark Earthworks in Newark and Heath, Ohio, consist of three sections of preserved earthworks: the Great Circle Earthworks, the Octagon Earthworks, and the Wright Earthworks. This complex, built by the Hopewell culture between 100 BCE and 400 CE, contains the largest earthen enclosures in the world, and was about 3,000 acres in total extent. Less than 10 percent of the total site has been preserved since European-American settlement; this area contains a total of 206 acres (83 ha). Newark's Octagon and Great Circle Earthworks are managed by the Ohio History Connection. A designated National Historic Landmark, in 2006 the Newark Earthworks was also designated as the "official prehistoric monument of the State of Ohio."

  • Newark Earthworks is een structuur van aardwerken (geogliefen) bij de stad Newark in Ohio, Verenigde Staten. Het staat op 97 kilometer afstand van , waar een verband mee lijkt te bestaan. Er zijn op beide sites geogliefen van geometrische vormen, zoals een cirkel en achthoek, gemaakt door greppels uit te graven en aangrenzend met het uitgegraven materiaal wallen op te richten. Delen die nog bestaan zijn tegenwoordig onderdeel van een private country club met een 18-hole golfbaan. Beide aardwerken worden op 250-400 n.Chr. gedateerd en toegeschreven aan de Hopewell-cultuur, naar kapitein M.C. Hopewell, die een boerderij had op de plaats waar opgravingen begonnen. (nl)
