Log Text: The main fully excavated and stabilized portions of the city are substantial, but one could wander over all the open areas and sporadic marked tombs outside the city for days. The site of the palace lies uphill from the new museum, and is not open to the public.
The new museum (opened in 2009) is amazing, with very good signage in Greek and English.

Log Text: The village site is on a spit of land extending into a bay area. You can drive right into the area as a picnic area with shelterhouses is located there. The only visible evidence of the original village are midden mounds all around the perimiter - they are not particularly noticable although some of them are quite large.
The most notable feature is a strange, deteriorating Art Deco sculpture of a sort of pyramid of Indian men. This was once a fountain and pool depicting an "Indian Legand" which may have been entirely fabricated in the 20th century.

Newark Earthworks - Octagon submitted by bat400 on 25th Nov 2007. This photo was taken from the observing platform that is set on the east side of the connecting "road" between the circle and octagon in the "Octagon" earthwork site. Looking southwest toward the circle. As you can see, the enclosures are far too large to get a good idea of the geometry without actually walking the site.
