Seven Pillars
Seven Pillars is located in Peru, Indiana. The Miami Indians inhabited the Mississinewa River valley and Seven Pillars was more to them then just a natural landmark of beauty, but rather a gateway to the other world. The Tribal Council would meet there in hope that their ancestors spirits would help guide them in the decisions that they would make. It was also the site where criminal cases were held, and if anyone was found guilty of horrible crimes, they would be beheaded on the spot.
The pillars were perfect as a trading post since it was in such a great location along the river with easy access for French traders. The French took the Seven Pillars seriously and wore religious icons on them to ward off any possible spirits there. The area was once a place for campers and fisherman for the people who live in Miami county. Ghosts have been seen by people who have camped under the limestone pillar. One man named Bruce said he was awoken in the middle of a night by a ghostly figure that was floating over the water graciously. Shannon was another witness to something similar, describing a mist in the form of a man running in and out of the pillars. The site has now been closed to the public after being bought by the ancestors of the Miami Indian Warriors.
