}}
The Anna Site (22 AD 500) is a prehistoric Plaquemine culture archaeological site located in Adams County, Mississippi north of Natchez. It is the type site for the ''Anna Phase (1200 to 1350 CE)'' of the Natchez Bluffs Plaquemine culture chronology. It was declared a National Historic Landmark on September 14, 1993.〔
==Description==
The Anna site is located on a bluff above the Mississippi River, about north of Natchez, Mississippi. The site consists of eight platform mounds, six of which are situated around a central plaza. The main group of six mounds sits near the bluff, with the largest being Mound 3. It is in height and sits directly on the edge of the bluff overlooking the river.〔 A ramp runs down the front of this mound onto the plaza area and toward a smaller mound (Mound 5) which is about away and measures in height. A small mound (Mound 4) sits adjacent(northeasterly) to Mound 3, just off the plaza. Excavations of this mound have found evidence of a summit structure. Another small mound (Mound 1) sits in a similar position on the southern side of Mound 3. Mound 2 flanks the plaza in between Mound 1 and Mound 5. Mounds 3, 2 and 5 are situated parallel to the plaza area, but Mound 6 is diagonally positioned. Mound 6 also has remnants of a ramp. Two other mounds (Mounds 7 and 8) are situated to the east and northeast of the main group.〔 Deep ravines surround the mounds, and material, including Mississippian culture pottery, is scattered in the area.〔
