Have you visited any of these places?
I have been to St. Louis cemetery #1. My first visit (2004), Marie Lavaeu's tomb was all marked up with X's. When I visited in 2016, the graffiti was painted over and a fence placed around the tomb to discourage future graffiti.
Old burying point in Salem! There are a few other beautiful old cemeteries in Salem.. Greenlawn & Harmony Grove are my favorites to visit & walk through
Why do we have to be surprised/shocked, that indigenous people had complex societies & honored their dead?
I think it’ll be cool if scientists ever get in contact with the Antarctica tribes that live under the ice. They must have some pretty cool frozen burials, preserved for thousands of years. And I’m guessing they have some really awesome tunnel slides to get around lol but probably a pretty vicious primitive people. Like that ancient island culture that still exists, just under the ice down there.
Well said, Brandyjean
Any successful society had their own morality.
I lived in Cahokia, I'll. from 1971-1975. I was in elementary school and they NEVER taught us about the history of our city, nor the importance of the Cahokia people. I had to move away to a different state before I EVER learned about the significance of the area. I find that tragic. 😊
I'm right there with you!! Every single one of my history classes were so white washed and intended to make it sound like the white Europeans were the heroes for the "heathen godless savages" when in all reality, we were the savages!! Really sad if you think about it fully as an adult
Indeed, it was a tragedy that history has not been taught-What Is known!
@@BarbieJohnson-pm9ys or taught PROPERLY!! And that is why we are doomed to repeat all of the bad shit and forget how to do the good. I hope I'm wrong and technically, I'm old enough to where I'll probably be long gone once the nonsense gets out of control entirely but my children and grandkids are at risk of being exposed to such FELONIOUS stupidity in the classroom and school grounds as well as having it shoved down their collective throats and all the while, it's low grade info at best.
I live on the Connecticut shoreline and one of the closest cemeteries to my house was established in 1658, in addition to indigenous/Native American burial grounds. We have lots of really old burial sites from the 17th-19th c. and exploring their history firsthand is super interesting and a true privilege!
Hi. I gave exactly the same comment! Throughout my life I learned so much history about my town and did many grave rubbings. We are proud of our community and that it’s from the 1600’s. Same goes for historical houses still standing. Enjoy your day.
There is a cemetery in my home town that is one of the oldest non-indigenous ones in the upper midwest. Established in 1828 and adjacent to a fort it includes several soldiers who served in the Revolutionary War. I grew up next to the main city cemetery that was first built in 1849. 4 generations of my ancestors are buried there, including my parents and grandmother.
This is a very interesting video. Thanks for the posting.
interesting video
I was in Boston this past October. It’s such a rad city and has a ton of history. The cemeteries are insane
I once went to visit some of my 1700s ancestors in NY. They didn’t have actual graves anymore idk why. Their grave stones were just stacked to the side and the top layer was flaking off. I did poke one of the flakes and kinda wish I had kept that but didn’t.
Has anyone working on this video ever visited the graveyards in towns along the CT coastline in Fairfield County. There are cemataries that date back to the 1600’s. There are many people in the area that do gravestone rubbings for many years!
The Old Dutch Church (1610) in Sleepy Hollow, NY, has numerous. Dutch headstones from the early 1600s. It is incorporated within Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, which has the graves of Washington Irving, Andrew Carnegie, the Rockefeller family, and others.

I've seen the grave of my six greats grandfather, who died on these shores sometime late in the 1760's
Do you have a video for the oldest cemeteries in other continents? The world?
How about the mass grave site at Harpers Island?
The cemetry in my village goes back to 600 ad
I’ve got medieval grave yards around me. Some with no church. Ransacked by reformers and the stone stolen by the people
What about St. Augustine?
Wasn’t Samuel whipple a h.p. Lovecraft character
NOLA closed that cemetery to the public because of the overwhelming vandalism of the tombs. I was there in 2021 and last week. Closed then. Closed now. No, tours are not allowed either.
And let's remember #Witchcraft is the oldest religion in the world and the indigenous religion of Western Europe. The Salem Village Massacre of 1690 to 1692 was the beginning of the end for the 900 years of the witch hunts.

Nothing to see here
I really wanted to like this video, but of course, like all the other tubers.... the music drowns him out and its hard to hear the information. I'm gonna dislike the video so that the channel won't come back through my suggestions.
