Fascinating topic. Just bought Gloria Farley' book, "In Plain Sight: Old World Records in Ancient American," 4th printing, 2000. She has spent more than 40 year traveling around the country copying rock and cave inscriptions and transmitting them to linguist Dr. Barry Fell and other scientists.
Languages (alphabets) identified include Germanic and Scandinavian runes, Ogam, Numidian and Tifinagh (old Libyan), Bronze Age Tifinag used in Northern Europe, Northern and Southern Iberian, Gaelic, and a number of others. These researchers and subjects can be found on the internet. There are also illustrations of ships, animals, gods and godesses that correspond to non American entities.
This markings are generally found not far from rivers that could be navigated by shallow draft boats. A lot were found in the SE US, so blond, blue-eyed people could easily be pre Roanoke. Some of the material appears to be as old as 4,000 years.
The Phoenicians and other Sea Peoples of the Mediterranean were very active starting around 1300 BC. As traders they kept their maps and trade routes very secret. The Cartheginians were the inheritors of this tradition. They were totally destroyed by the Roman's in the Punic Wars, and such knowledge lost.
