The Ocmulgee River area in central Georgia has been inhabited for up to 17,000 years, showcasing a rich history marked by significant cultural contributions. Notable achievements include the construction of the Great Temple Mound by Mississippian-era people around 1,000 years ago and its role as a trade hub for the Creek Indians in the late 17th century. Despite suffering damage from railroads in the 19th century, preservation efforts led to the establishment of Ocmulgee National Monument in the 1930s, attracting visitors who develop a deep appreciation for its historical significance.
Macon has been a crossroads of cultures since Native Americans built the massive earthworks that now form the Ocmulgee National Monument. In the 19th century, fortunes rose and fell with the price of cotton for small farmers and businessmen, as well as plantation owners. The Civil War destroyed the plantation economy, but it left Macon's historic treasures largely undisturbed. Though manufacturing replaced plantation slavery, cotton and race remained central facts of life as the City of Churches adapted to a changing world. From the 1950s onward, the city's role as a textile center withered, but the likes of Little Richard, Otis Redding, and the Allman Brothers Band built a musical legacy for Macon that survives today.
