      there are artifacts everywhere across the nation in such abundance you would not believe. Indians lived in every place over the past 20-30 thousand years. that's a lot of burials. arrowheads are perhaps the only thing most people recognize, but portable stone artwork is 100-1000X more abundant.

      I have blood type O, I have Cherokee heritage from the TRAIL Of TEARS. My Paternal great great grandfather ( documented from rolls) was on the TRAIL. my paternal grandmother was from the Echota area( Cherokee capital). My ancestor returned to The Bryson City, NC area( gravesite). Where I grew up on a farm in Hall county was a Cherokee rondoveau point on the intersection of creeks. We have in the past found stone tools and arrow heads of stones(quartz) from the Ellijay area. The white rondoveau point was a mile West. I was fortunate too live on this site. If we don't preserve our history , it will be lost.

    Ga has many sites. Two sun terrace mounds. The Ocmulgee mounds are very impressive. We have investigated mounds that are on rivers here. We have found bone needles with lighten bolts , frogs & eagles on them. Raccoon baculets, many things that would rival anyone's collection. The Cherokee lived in the north. The 5 tribes of the Muscogee were in the south. The creeks broke away from fighting & have never signed a treaty with America. They became the Seminole in fla. Seminole means break away. The bone needles were donated to Ga Southern University.

    Pyramidal earth mounds is what you'd expect to find as the ancient American engineers and architects experimented with architectural techniques and geopolymers. Eventually building the incredible and numerous pyramidal structures and stone complexes. Ancient "Egyptian" artifacts, sculptures, and reliefs. Indigo grows here and is used to make reddish, purple, and bluish dyes. Corn and pineapples depicted in ancient Mediterranean art. "Meso-Potamia" -> "Meso-America". So much more...

    So why (yes, it bothers me) do we have to say that everything that was built so long ago has to do with either religion or for ritualistic use?
    Our people didn't have paper or markers, helll most didn't even have paint.
    If I lived back in the day and wanted to express myself or be artistic, and all I had available was rocks and sticks, I'd used that.

    I was very surprised that we heard nothing narrated about the oldest site in Georgia perhaps the oldest in the United States and that being the Track Rock site. The Track Rock site has been so well guarded by authorities from archaeologists and reporters because it will rewrite the educational human understanding of native history. The Track Rock site is beyond archeological proof that the Mayan people and culture inhabited Georgia long before the current historical knowledge presumes. The rocks from this site that produce a pigment of blue color is ONLY found in one other place in the World and that place is the Mayan temples in South America. It is that blue color pigmentation that can only be made from those rocks that the Aztec people prized and used to color their temples, pottery, buildings and themselves. The other sites were the Etowah burial mounds south of the Track Rock site and Saute Nacoochee site that was a major trading place between the native American peoples from SC, GA, NC, AL and TN. It's also south of the Track Rock site near the burial mound site. Why? Why are these sites being omitted from our educational understanding of historical knowledge of these people. It's baffling to me. It's been controlled and guarded by the US government Department of Interior through the National Park Service and Forest Service. There is unrefuted historical evidence in that area that the Mayan people lived there long before the people we understand as the Native American tribal people ever set foot on this continent from over the Bering strait land bridge who then migrated into what we now call the Continental United States.

    I love stuff like this. I'm going Kayaking down the Flint River this weekend. Starting at Sprewell Bluff. Many people don't know the rich, native American history of that area. There's a little island in the middle of the river named Owens island. This is where an old Indian trail crossed the Flint and several families lived in the caves in the area. There are always different spots being found where there are artifacts like jewelry and even weapons found. It's illegal to search for these things and if you find something you're supposed to leave it to rot. Let's just say I don't believe in that and I believe these trinkets should be taken and preserved by someone that isn't hard up for money and will just keep them safe.

    Note that the Mississippian people WERE NOT from Mexico. The Mississippian people were indigenous to what is now the eastern United States. There were migrations throughout the Mississippian period, but they were mostly confined within the boundaries of the eastern woodlands. The Mississippian culture was developed by the ancestors of modern day indians, like the Osage, Cherokee, Muskogee, Choctaw, and Shawnee. Their stories tell us a lot about the world their ancestors lived in.

    This very well could be where the Mayan people came to when they left Central America. If you look at the depiction of the man dressed as an eagle. Pictographs almost exactly the same are found in Central America. The thing held up in his right hand is a weapon just like the warriors used in Central America. A flat wood paddle with either flint or obsidian flakes along its side. The thing in his left hand is the head of a vanquished enemy. The Pictographs are to similar to be a coincidence. One of the biggest things that say this happened is the languages of the tribes in Georgia. The Creeks in the Chattahoochee River Valley spoke a language that was I forgot the percentage, but it was 85 to 95 percent the same. There is a mound area that is the exact footprint of the Serpent pyramid city in Central America. It has the Serpent pyramid structure but is made from earth and not stone. Put the pathway leading up it. Follows its stone twin perfectly. I live in Alabama on the Chattahoochee river. I found a huge chunk of obsidian when I plowed a garden. Luckily, it turned up within a chunk of dirt and was not shattered by the tillers' tines. It had been worked well it was probably a core stone, and blades and other things were flaked off as it was bigger than my fist. I took it to a geologist and was told this type of obsidian does not come from the southeast. It only exists in Central America and west of the Rockies. This could be only a sign of trade happening. But with the Temple areas the same the language being nearly the same. Its likely this is where the Maya people came after they abandoned their cities in Central America. Of course, some stayed there. One other thing is of importance to the idea this was the case. The color called Maya Blue that found in a special clay was used so very much by the people. It was used on Temple walls and is very strong as some remains on these temples. They covered the children and adults they sacrificed into the deep water filled holes found there called cenote. Have this paint as much as 4 feet thick on the bottom of the cenote. This pigment is not found in large enough amounts in Central America. It is found, however, in very large amounts in the Chattahoochee River Valley. Of course this was probably where they traded for this clay. But it put this area of Georgia on the map of the maya people.If it was important for them to need it for use in their sacrifices, usually for the rain to make the corn crops grow. Then perhaps they came here because of its abundance. However, once they made it here, they would of learned such sacrifices were not needed due to the amount of rain that falls in the area annually. The people already here, if im correct, did not sacrifice children though they probably did people caught from waring tribes

    The Mississippians did not come from Central or South America. The culture evolved on the Mississippi River and spread throughout the Southeast and the lower Midwest. There was some migration/movement of people, but in some places, the rise of Mississippi culture centered on the borrowing of Mississipian ideas that came into Georgia through trade. The Ocumulge element in this video is filled with errors.

    Little reason have the inhabitants of Georgia and Alabama to complain that the government of the United States has been remiss or neglectful in protecting them from Indian hostilities, the fact is directly the reverse! The people of Alabama and Georgia are now suffering the recoil of their own unlawful weapons and backsliding. Georgia sir, Georgia by trampling upon the faith of our national treaties with the Indians Indian tribes, and by subjecting them to her state laws, first set the example of that policy which is now in the process of consummation by this Indian war, In setting this example, she bade defiance to the
    authority of the government of the nation; she nullified your laws; she set at naught your executive guardians of the common constitution of the land. To the mockery of signing other treaties with you, which at the first moment when it shall suit your purpose, you will again tear to tatters and scatter to the four winds of heaven the constitution, till the Indian race shall be extinct upon this continent, and it shall become a problem, beyond the solution of antiquaries and historical societies, what the red man of the forest was! There’s your British blood, your anglo Saxon race! Men who are driven from the civilized portion of the world for their crimes! There’s a gang for you! Texas is just the place for them!

    📚 The Pan-handle of Florida, Eastern Georgia, Eastern Tennessee , and North Carolina have far more to reveal of the N American Authentic Ancient History.
    The practice of the "Mainstream Academics" which developed in the late 19th Century and continued over the 20th to present in this 21st Century is a subject that requires "it's own History Timeline; including the individual Academics, Researchers, Funding Sources, and relative Subjects , for understanding the Facts that created their "19th Century Theory based Paradigm and Linear Timeline", used as the "foundation of facts" and then further used as a "tool of measure", with which to accept that which fit within and supported the "Theory based Paradigm", or reject that which didn't.
    This includes: Oral or Written Records and History, Artifacts of Human and Animal Skeletal Remains, Pottery, Figures of Humans and Animals, Tools, Weapons, Personal care items, Materials, Clothing, Shoes, Jewelry, Carved Writings on Rock, Petroglyphs , Hieroglyphics, Toys, various unidentified objects, and more.
    This History requires an Audit to clarify the departure from the "Standards of Science and Research" and "Standards of Academic Ethical Practices", both supporting the "Individual Professional Freedom of Thought", necessary for Authentic Ethical Practices which is Required to ensure the highest accuracy and to support the continued Discoveries.
    The "Standards of Science and Research" in summary, directs the Academic/Researcher to:
    "With Mind fully Open, free of any predetermined Beliefs, Theories, Opinions, ......... and allowing the Research Methodologies to extract the greater facts."
    Additionally, the practice of Academics and Researchers were trained to establish a habit of being:
    "Conscious in Thought" +
    "Applying Higher Mind"
    (Where all our Positive Thought Energies and Wisdom reside)
    (the "Lower Mind aka Ego Mind aka Adolescent Mind" holds all the "negative thought energies: fear, prejudices, judging, accusations, insecurities, jealousy, envy, etc.), those traits that have no value in the Ethical and Mature Minded Academic Practice.
    The "Standards of Science and Research" prohibits using a Theory as Fact, further, to threaten peers with/through Public or Covert Gaslighting breaches conduct becoming an Authentic Academic.
    Behaviors that display accusations, name calling, and ridiculing of Academics who have established data, theories, and/or findings, that suggest an "Alternative to the Mainstream Academic Paradigm" are inappropriate on multiple levels and demonstrate their own needs for realignment in Academic Practices.
    In the practice of Research and Discoveries it requires that the Individual remains "Humble", realized in the practice that "any thing is possible" so as to not "assume" and thus detail the potential of fact finds and Discoveries.
    This "Mainstream Academics" practice has derailed Authentic Findings and Discoveries and at present there are countless subjects that include "Peer Reviewed and Journal Published Science Findings" which have been ignored because they demonstrate the inaccuracies of the current model and Paradigm of "Mainstream Academia".
    It does not meet Academic Standards to use a Belief Based Practice.
    In this now era the facts have been and are continuing to quickly emerge which requires the tasking of a History review and Audit of the practice and the content of that which is taught as History.
    To ignore this will not result in its disappearance, rather it will merely delay the inevitable.
    "Authentic Academics" adhere to the "Standards of Science and Research".
