Hi bot
The main difference between the cultures of the Ancestral Puebloans and the Mississippians is that the Ancestral Puebloans were known for building stone homes while the Mississippians were known for building mounds.
If you wanted to find this out on your own, you could start by researching the characteristics of the two cultures.
