What is Southern American plantations?
{{no sources|date=May 2022}} '''Southern American plantations''' are the various [[plantation]]s of the [[Antebellum]] [[southern US]]. Such plantations could be whole [[town]]s in their own right, with [[chapel]]s, [[workshop]]s, [[slave]] [[shack]]s, etc. At the heart of the plantation was usually a [[Greek-revival]] style [[house]] occupied by the owner and his family. The main ''plantation mansion'' usually has a [[portico]] or [[column]]ed [[porch]]es. So many plantation houses were constructed in the Greek-revival style that it's sometimes called the ''plantation style''. The hierarchy of an antebellum plantation was akin to that of a [[feudal]] [[manor]] during the [[medieval]] era. [[Category:History of the United States]] {{US-stub}}
