History
The primary document for the history of Terrace Park is "A Place Called Terrace Park" by Ellis Rawnsley (1992).
Rawnsley notes that the earliest human inhabitants of Terrace Park may have arrived as early as 12,000 years ago—the Paleo-Indians. Although "no traces of established settlements have ever been found," flints showing evidence of these nomadic people have been found in various locations in the areas surrounding Terrace Park.
Circa approximately 1000 B.C., settlements appeared in Hamilton County, Ohio.
According to Rawnsley, "Two thousand or more years ago, a primitive people built, in what is now Terrace Park, one of the largest of its kind of the 295 prehistoric earthworks ever found in Hamilton County."
Mounds from the Adena culture are found throughout a wide area which contains Terrace Park.
