Nobody’s ever dowsed for ‘lines of force’, there?

“Ley lines” and “straight tracks” can be very different from one another.

LOL!

> “a glacier did that”. Seems like it must have been a really determined and meticulous glacier, to me.

Same goes for “wrecked ships” which were able to cross the Atlantic, even though wrecks tend to, uh, sink to the bottom. And if a sound ship can’t make the crossing, a wreck sure as hell can’t. ;’)

“even though wrecks tend to, uh, sink to the bottom.”

Repeal the law of gravity, now!!!

There is hard proof of a group of red haired, over 6 foot tall people living in ancient Nevada. The Paiutes who tend to be shorter and rounder were very scared of them. The red haired people lived in a cave near Fallon, oddly all evidence has been gathered by the State and locked away for safe keeping. I believe they were most likely Viking. No “scholar” will investigate.

This story has been passed down in my wife's family who are Cherokee from central OK.

I recognize the pictgraphs.

Simpler versions are on rocks, here.

Those darn Georgia Indians really got around.

It would make as much sense to describe "Serpent Mound" as a fort:

Sounds like Madeleine L’Engle.

Yeah, they’ll be very safe...unless somebody bothers to sneak up from behind.

Thank God I have ‘experts’ to set me straight on these things.

Thanks!

I hope I get there again. If we know of such things on any of our trips (one reson we drive places, not fly) we go outof our way to visit.

One of my big regrets is that an acqauintance, who was a friend of Barry Fell, died before we could get to New Mexico to be taken by him to several confidential locations of petroglyphs. Most were on remote private land, but he knew the owners, and was quietly cataloguing & recording them.

Our pastor, who knew both Fell and Gene, is how I was introduced to the possibility of an invitation.

Could they have something to do with the Melungeons? I wonder if anyone has done a genetic background for any of the Melungeons yet.

The Romans built fortifications every day while on the march, even when no enemies were apparent.

It’s second nature to a general/leader to protect his forces with fortifications when traveling through potentially dangerous foreign country.

Interesting. The Tudors were descended from a Welshman - Owen Tudor - who was executed in the Wars of the Roses fighting on the Lancastrian side I believe.
