Waukesha historical marker WAUKESHA (Waugooshance - meaning little foxes)
Waukesha was the site of numerous earthen mounds in geometric and animal shapes erected by prehistoric Native American Effigy Mound Culture of the Late Woodland Period (400 AD-1100 AD). 55 of these mounds once stood in what is now Waukesha City. Only a few, like the Cutler Park Mounds, remain intact. The Potawatomi were in Waukesha County, 1600's-1838, and had a village here. First European settler, Morris Cutler, arrived in 1984. This park was the location of his home. Original name of Prarie Village, taken from Potawatomi name for the river, chekashskotah-seepee (burnt prarie river). Name shortened to Prarieville and then changed to Waukesha in 1846, when it became the county seat of the newly formed county. Became a village in 1852 and a city in 1896.

Prehistoric Indian Mound This and the two adjacent mounds were built for burials probably by the prehistoric Woodland Indians. They perhaps began entering Wisconsin about 2000 BC and lived here until modern times.
The Potawatomi who left Waukesha in 1836 were never mound builders.
Waukesha County once had 411 mounds and the City 55 on 11 sites.
This mound was excavated in 1850. Beneath the ground level were found decayed fragments of a human skeleton with head to the west, decorative pipes and pieces of shell and pottery.
