The Emerald Mound site (22 AD 504), also known as the Selsertown site, is a Plaquemine culture Mississippian period archaeological site located on the Natchez Trace Parkway near Stanton, Mississippi, United States. The site dates from the period between 1200 and 1730 CE. It is the type site for the Emerald Phase (1500 to 1680 CE) of the Natchez Bluffs Plaquemine culture chronology and was still in use by the later historic Natchez people for their main ceremonial center.

The platform mound is the second-largest Mississippian period earthwork in the country, after Monk's Mound at Cahokia, Illinois. The mound covers eight acres, measuring 770 feet (230 m) by 435 feet (133 m) at the base and is 35 feet (11 m) in height. Emerald Mound has a flat top with two smaller secondary mounds at each end. It was constructed around a natural hill. Travelers in the early 19th century noted a number of adjoining mounds and an encircling ditch that are no longer present. This site once had six other secondary mounds which were lost due to the plowing of the surface of the mound. Emerald Mound was stabilized by the National Park Service in 1955. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1989. The mound is now managed by the Park Service's Natchez Trace Parkway unit, and is open to the public.

La pyramide à terrasse est, après celle de Monk's Mound à Cahokia, le deuxième plus grand remblai précolombien du pays. La pyramide s'étend sur 3,2 ha et affecte un plan rectangulaire de 230 m par 133 m à la base ; sa hauteur est de 11 m. Emerald Mound présente une plate forme encadrée par deux môles plus petits aux extrémités. Elle a été terrassée autour d'une colline naturelle. Les voyageurs du début du XIXe siècle ont relevé l'existence de plusieurs moles secondaires et la présence d'un fossé périphérique, qui ont disparu depuis. Ce site possédait autrefois six autres tertres secondaires qui ont été arasés par suite du labourage agricole. Emerald Mound a été conforté par le National Park Service en 1955. Il a été classé National Historic Landmark en 1989.
