The ancient Native American "Pyramid City" of Cahokia, named by modern people in the U.S., exists in the Midwest in the state of Illinois.

Another city stands today along the Mississippi River that is not Cahokia. It is a real city that existed in America before Europeans invaded and occupied the land.

It was not captured again by the Lamanites during that long and disastrous war. In later Lamanite invasions it undoubtedly fell more than once into their hands as it was in the direct line of the course they generally took when entering Nephite territory.
