Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox ancient site The Greenhouse site (16 AV 2) is an archaeological site of the Troyville-Coles Creek culture (400 to 1000 CE) in Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana.

Greenhouse is the most extensively excavated Troyville-Coles Creek site in Louisiana. The site consists of seven platform mounds surrounding a central plaza that measures Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert. Archaeologists have not found an associated village for the site, which supports the theory that the site was ceremonial in nature and that its builders lived elsewhere.[1] Mound A (Шаблон:Convert in height, with a base Шаблон:Convert square and a summit Шаблон:Convert square), Mound E (Шаблон:Convert in height, with a base Шаблон:Convert square and a summit Шаблон:Convert square) and Mound G are the 3 largest mounds at the site and form a triangle.[2]
