Strange Marble Tablet found in Cottonwood Canyon 106 Years ago and Then Just Disappears

 Originally posted in 2014, again in 2018

The following article was written in 2010 and included in the book Nephite North.

It is one of the articles of the past I have received the highest views and requests for, therefore I have decided to post it again, (Edited from the original)


The Cottonwood Marble Tablet


In August of 1916 an article appeared in the Salt Lake Telegram. Many will never understand how important this discovery was/is and the things it sheds light on... and seemingly validating the fallacies of things taught in our education system as fact and yet could not be further from the truth. A sharp eye and a sharp mind, may pick up some of these things.... The following article and more can also be found in the Book Nephite North featured at the end.



Mysterious Tablet Is Uncovered in Cottonwood
Archaeologist Explore Workings of Ancients
Salt Lake Telegrahm August 1916

One day last month, two miners, while driving a drift in one of the canyons of Upper Cottonwood, broke into a small cave of peculiar appearance. Upon closer examination the supposed cave was soon to open into a caved passageway, and after three days work spent In removing debris a complex series of subterranean passages and chambers was exposed. From the number and length of the workings explored to date, they must have been mined upon an extensive scale and throughout a considerable period of time. It will take some time to thoroughly explore these labyrinthic pass-ages, and It In expected that they will disclose archaeological data of great value.

 

It was at first thought that one of the famed lost Spanish mines had been rediscovered, but later explorations have failed to show any trace of Spanish relics. Instead a large number of Indian tools and Implements of flint and stone, as well as of beaten iron and copper, have, been found, In addition to a remarkable collection of decorated potteries,

 

The walls of many of the tunnels and chambers are decorated with sculp-tured reliefs and hieroglyphic inscriptions, but by far the most Interesting relic found so far is a smooth discolored marble tablet which stood at the entrance of one of the larger chambers. It is completely covered with remarkable sculptured reliefs and hieroglyphic inscriptions, and is reproduced in the accompanying plate. The site of this discovery is, for the present, being jealousy guarded, and it undoubtedly marks one of the most important archaeological discoveries of recent years. The discovery is all the more remarkable in that heretofore no hieroglyphic inscriptions have ever been found north of Mexico.

NOTE: the previous BOLD statement is not true, as Lenape, Sioux, and Ojibwa hieroglyphs were well known at that time, but being shunned with the academics claiming they were not authentic, this would be like someone telling you that the written language you grew up with is not authentic.

Everything points to the great antiquity of these workings-and their contents. The Inscriptions are uncolored and appear to have been incised and picked into the receiving stone by quartz and flint implements, some of which have been preserved. A noteworthy feature of the marble tablet is the combination of pictographs and alphabetic writing. As pictographs are generally conceded to have preceded and to have originated the graphic systems, this tablet would appear to date from a period of transition from the pictographic to the hieroglyphic art. As noted above, none of the records ever found north of Mexico have contained hieroglyphics. This tablet, therefore, may chronicle an amalgamation of inscriptive expression between North American and Mexican tribes; or it may record the progress of civilization of an American tribe, probably the Utes, although It is possible that other Tribes may have come from great distances to obtain the highly prized red metal.



An interesting mineralogical feature to be noted is that throughout, these ancient workings, which are at no great distance below the surface, native copper abounds, in some places being scattered through the vein rock in small fragments, in others occurring as chunks of metallic copper, weighing from a pound or two up to eighty or one hundred pounds. Ordinarily, such a discovery of copper would create considerable excitement, but the 'wall writings and relics are of such absorbing Interest that the copper has been, for a time, relegated to the background. It is puzzling how these Indians, with their primitive tools, were able to break up and extract the exceedingly tough chunks of copper. A number of copper implements and ornaments, hammered and incised, have been gathered, as well as diggers, scrapers, hoes, arrow heads and pounding stones.

 

Various receptacles for food and drink, as well as for earth and ore, were uncovered, they being all made of pottery and decorated with geometric figures, or with picturegraphs or hieroglyphics. This pottery is now being carefully studied, as it is ornamented with symbols and characters which may aid in the deciphering of the stone records. The light gray or black coloring of all the pottery as well as Its crude form, would tend to Indicate its very early Origin. In fact, everything connected with the find evidences great antiquity, and the mine apparently was worked at least many centuries before the appearance of the Spaniards In this region. So far, no key to the decipherment is known, but the various Inscriptions are being carefully scrutinized and compared, in the hopes that one may be detected. In this search collaboration is invited, and should this picture reach the eye of anyone familiar with Indian symbols and records, the investigators would be pleased to have their opinions and suggestions regarding its translation.

 

It has long been known that Utah is a veritable treasure house of archaeo-logical records, but it is claimed by scientists who have examined this stone, that it is the most important archaeological find ever chronicled in Utah's history. Owing to the Intense Interest manifested in these discoveries, it was thought best to keep their location secret, at least until such time as they could be thoroughly explored and proper precautions taken to adequately protect them.

It is hoped to have further news of interest within the next day or two, as the explorations are being pursued with great avidity.

This is when I finally realized that "carefully studied"  means swept away and dusted under the rug by Smithsonian representatives.


After the publishing date of the above article, for the next 3 days a news article was published pertaining to the events, many other artifacts were found. There were tools, ceramics and most interestingly a marble and a Copper Tablet found as well. After the miners supposedly accidentally collapsed the tunnel with dynamite, nothing more was ever said about the discovery and any recovered artifacts have just disappeared.

The following exhibits the Marble tablet with the best photo available thanks to my friend Ryan Nelson who went to the University of Utah in 2010 and took the photos from the original Newspapers. It is unknown at this time where the actual tablets are but they are suspected of being in the possession of the University of Utah.




The Marble Tablet

I find several things that are very interesting to me concerning this find. First, it would seem that there wasn’t a campaign to render the find as a hoax as it seems so many finds in recent years are. Here we have only a few artifacts recovered (To our knowledge), yet it would seem that no effort was made to render it as a hoax, and yet the Michigan Collection of nearly 30,000 artifacts was. Why would the Michigan artifacts, after being designated as a hoax, be purchased or obtained by Milton Hunter?  and why would they later be donated to the LDS Church and than after many years donated to a museum back east after being written off as a hoax? The Cottonwood tablets however just disappeared, Why? Because they could... it is much easier to make a few artifacts disappear that 30,000 of them.

Secondly, I find it interesting that an ancient Copper Tablet or plate was found. This would infer that these people who were often portrayed as ancient backwards uncivilized inhabitants were skilled in the arts of metals.

Third, I feel that the subject of the panels found are directly related to the surrounding area of where they were found, these tablets were found at the very source headwaters of a major contributor of the creation of Lake Bonneville at the headlands and ridges above Little Cottonwood and Big Cottonwood Canyons. I hardly think the events described on them pertain to some unknown location far away.

Fourth, The subject of the story that it tells and that this story came to me from my friend Darrel Sprecher who rediscovered it searching old newspapers in 2010 and at the very moment as I was writing a the chapter concerning Lake Bonneville and the Waters of Ripliancum, in the book Nephite North.

The hieroglyphs found on this tablet are very much like Native American glyphs but they are more like the glyphs of the Ojibwa, Sioux and Lenape. Keep in mind that a related tribe of the Lenape migrated to the east from the west in 700 AD. Although their writing system, the Wallum Olam, is similar, it is very different, but it shares the same symbol base system. Although the migration stories of the Ojibwa don’t match their coming from the west, the evidence does. I have yet to hear or read the actual Ojibwa story. All that exists on the internet it seems are reports from those who are telling you what the Ojibwa really meant, rather than actually telling the story.

The story on the Marble Tablet has no rule as to how it is read such as read from left to right or right to left, in rows or columns. It is meant to be read as a whole. Start where you like because as long as you know the subject, you will receive the same story regardless of where you start to read it. Also the placement of the glyphs in relation to each other is another rule you would need to know: There are however groupings of glyphs meant to be read together. Even still, they all have to do with the main topic or subject.

The subject of the Tablet is a cataclysmic event , flooding, quaking, and great storms, a Destruction of cities and geography yet a creation of a great lake. Many would because of superficial viewing and with the lack of knowledge pertaining to symbol base meaning of the Native American Petroglyphs, see Tents, or even Volcanoes. However, this is not the case as the symbol for dwelling is absent as also the symbols for volcanoes or Lava Tube. If there is one thing I have learned regarding the Native Glyphs in the last 30 years of studying them, it is that the very people who should know about the glyph system, are those who do not.

Although there are many things spoken of on this panel; I will give only a portion of it and leave the finer details out for a few reasons. Either I don’t have the answer, or it is something I choose not to reveal. Whoever inscribed this tablet, either witnessed the event, or the story was handed down with great detail. The story goes something like this;

One day, a great storm came from the Northmuch rain and much unusual lightning high in the clouds, much wind, the earth quaked much, mountains went up and mountains went down, some mountains divided and much water emerging from their tops like fountains, the hidden waters came up, water was everywhere around all the mountains. The people of one mountain fled to the top to escape the waters. The people of another mountain fled to the top but were killed when they fell. Others watched from the tops of mountains, their cities were at the base of the mountains. The cities were consumed by the rising waters, a great lake was formed, we watched as the winds carried some people away, and the waves of the waters swept others away. The waters rose above the hills and our burial grounds. The turtles are no more. Turtle Island is no more. The people wept. The Sun took several crooked paths and did not come up for two or more days and when it came up it came up in a different place and set in a different place. There was much crying by all the people. The waters continued to rise for several moons. Our cities are gone.

The story told above is certainly not conclusive in that I have had little time to study the tablet, there is much more to it in details and I may be a little off in some areas due to my lack of study. Whatever the case, I don’t think there are many who would argue that an event of destruction is taking place on this tablet. I have for a long time believed that the contents of 3 Nephi 9:7 are pertaining to the now Salt Lake, Ogden and/or Provo Valley’s.

3 Nephi 9:7
 7 Yea, and the city of Onihah and the inhabitants thereof, and the city of Mocum and the inhabitants thereof, and the city of Jerusalem and the inhabitants thereof; and waters have I caused to come up in the stead thereof, to hide their wickedness and abominations from before my face, that the blood of the prophets and the saints shall not come up any more unto me against them.

Many cannot conceive the possibility of mountain tops opening and rivers from the unknown flowing down the mountains, it is easier for them to blame the strange formations found in the tops of the Wasatch Mountains and the Uintas and many other places upon a so called “Ice Age”

I would have no doubt that this tablet speaks of the event found in 3 Nephi 8:12-23 and Helaman 14:21-27 in the land Northward.
Isaiah 41:18  “ I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.

At the time the people were so ready to believe any explanation, and within days of the discovery a man by the name Herbert S Auerbach offered his translation, it was clear to me the man had no understanding of what he was looking at... even in the slightest, His story about his "Salt Princess, No Ni Shee" is what the people bought and fortunately barley remains to this day and yet it seems no one understands where this so called legend even came from. Who was this Herbet S Auerbach? A manager of the Golden Chest Mining company in Coeur D' Alene Idaho, and a business man, son of Samuel, the originator of the department stores, Auerbachs.


There is a very good Indian legend of the Wasu tribe who lived near the Comstock Mountain range that explains what happened from their point of view...  and gives evidence of this event. Now some give very little credibility to Indian Legend, but when the evidence matches the legend you might want to sit down, shut up pay and attention. The Legend is as follows as told by an Indian and recorded by (Mrs. M. M. Garwood, Progressive West Magazine, reprinted in Deseret Semi-Weekly News, Febuary 5, 1909.)

"Long time, heap long time. Maybe one hundred years, injun no sabe, white man sabe. My grandfather's father, he heap old man. Maybe two, three hundred years, me dunno, Carson Valley, Wasu Valley, Truckee Valley, Long Valley, Pilamid Lake, Lublock, eblywhere all water, plenty pish, plenty duck. Big pish too, now no see him no more, all go away, no come back.

"Wasu Injun, he lib big mountains (pointing to the Comstock and Pyramid range). Some time Wasu Indian take `em boat go see Piutee, maybe Piutee he take `em boat go see Wasu Indian, Yash he good friend, all time."

Pointing to the Sierra to the west of Washoe Valley, the old Indian continued:

"Big mountain all time fire, plenty `boom, `boom, heap smoke, injun heap flaid! Byme bye, one day, mountain heap smoke, heap noise, glound too much shake, injun heap flaid, pall down, plenty cly. He sun ebly day come up (pointing to the northeast) he go down (pointing to the southwest). One day sun no come up, Injun no sabe, mountain heap smoke, glound plenty shake, wind blow, water heap mad. Maybe two, tlee day sun he no come, injun no eat, no sleep, all time cly, cly, yash, heap flaid. Byme bye water make plenty noise, go plenty fast like Tlukee Liver: water go down, down, mountain come up, come up, plenty mud, plenty pish die, byme bye sun come back over this mountain (pointing to the southeast) he go down ober there (pointing to the northwest). Yash, whiteman sabe, injun no sabe,

"Maybe two, tlee week, mud he dly up, Piutee, Wasu Injun walk, no more boat. All water he go; maybe little water Pilamid Lake, Honey Lake, Wasu Lake, too much mountain, he come purty quick. Yash, injun no sabe water, big pish no come back. No see him no more."

How I would have loved to have met this Indian, whiteman NO sabe, injun sabe...
Now assuming this tale holds some truths, it likely means that the Indian is referring to the time of the crucifixion wherein there were three days of darkness and that it would appear there was a change in North by the description given of where the sun rose and set. Some have a hard time orienting themselves based on this description, so simply raise your right hand and point to where he says the sun rose,(N/E) then raise your left hand and point to where he says it set,(S/W) now look straight forward and that was North. If you did it correctly, looking perpendicular to your arms, you should be looking at approximately 311 degrees which is the direction of BC North from Washoe Valley Nevada. 

So many things discovered over the past have gone unreported and kept silent, and for obvious reasons, others wisped away in an effort to hide the truth, It is no wonder that so many people seem to have no belief and no faith... I was reminded recently of one of these many recent undisclosed discoveries, among other things I wish I could not only tell, but provide pictures... but a 9 foot red haired large man who has with him a sword so large, (a full 5 foot from tip to hilt,) the finder being by todays standard as a large, could not pick the sword up and wield it with one hand. The finder left everything as he found it.

Where did these Cottonwood artifacts go and why did they disappear? Why is it those who pull the strings of the academics are so afraid of truth?

Cataclysmic Pole Shifts of the Past PART TWO


And the Geological and Archeological Evidences

The Big Horn Medicine Wheel 

High in the mountains of Northern Wyoming situated at one of the highest points of the mountain is an odd arrangement of stone of which one can’t help but think of Stonehenge while looking at it despite having no real similarities in appearance.

 

Fig. 1

 

I had debated on whether or not to write about this curious feature at first, but it showed strong promise as having BC origins, and this intrigued me, I had no idea as to how much promise it held. 

First let me say that I do not believe that it is a Medicine Wheel as perceived in the usual modern day traditional ideas and uses of the many that have hypothesized and supposedly used it for their own purposes, even over the last few hundred years. It is said to have been constructed by plains Indians around 300-800 years ago. Why such a broad spectrum? Who was there to see them build it? Was it documented by some unknown source in some unknown place? How many have laid claim to its construction? None have claimed it as of yet, if they had built it, how many could explain why it was built and what its purpose was? Have they lost this knowledge? If so, how would they know that it was their ancestors who built it? The Crow who arrived in the area about 1400 AD said it was there when they got there. 

The Big Horn Wheel was first brought to my attention by a friend who sent it to me for BC origin analysis as he new the subject of my research. Upon first looking at Jack Eddy’s diagram I could see it most likely had BC origins.

The article that I read had some comments that just needed questioning, and the reader needs to know the facts pertaining to this from another perspective. For the reader’s convenience, I will include a small portion of the article. 

Astronomical Alignments:

In 1974, an archaeoastronomer named Jack Eddy visited this Medicine Wheel and studied its alignments, that is, its arrangements of rocks, cairns, and spokes. He found the arrangements point to the rising and setting places of the Sun at summer solstice, as well as the rising places of Aldebaran in Taurus, Rigel in Orion, and Sirius in Canis Major -- all bright, important stars associated with the Solstice. Later another astronomer, Jack Robinson, found a cairn pair that marked the bright star Fomalhaut's rising point with the Sun 28 days before solstice.

 


 

Fig. 2

Sighting from cairn E through the center hub (which may have supported a pole) marks the summer solstice sunrise. Sighting from C through the center marked the equivalent solstice sunset.

Standing at cairn F, one could sight the once-yearly dawn, or heliacal, risings of the key stars Aldebaran, Rigel, and Sirius, which play symbolic roles in an ancient Cheyenne Massaum ceremony and are also important stars in the sacred Lakota circle constellation "The Animal".

The dawn or heliacal rising of a star is important because it pinpoints a date exactly. This is the day a star is first seen, just before dawn, after it has been behind the Sun for an entire season. From about 1200 AD to 1700 AD, these 4 stars would have acted as solstice markers for the Native Americans - Fomalhaut (F to D) would rise 28 days before the Summer Solstice, Aldebaran (F to A) would rise during the 2 days just before the solstice, Rigel (F to B) would rise 28 days after the solstice, and Sirius (F to C) 28 days after that, at the end of August  

Now although there are many other things I could point out in this article, I will only address the bold text points with a little deviation. I don’t know who wrote this article but it is typical of the things that seem to be among the accepted explanations. 

We read about the alignments of Aldebaran in Taurus, Rigel in Orion, and Sirius, and my first question is, who cares? For us to believe that these alignments were somehow significant to pinpointing some date with constellations is ridiculous. What? You can’t do that with the alignment of the sun? Does the Sun rise in a new location every day? Would this be like trying to find the forest but can’t see it for all the trees? Why would the ancients ignore the sun’s rising positions and choose a FIRST APPEARANCE of a star instead. You don’t need some big wheel made out of stone to SEE its FIRST APEARENCE. Isn’t a FIRST APPEARENCE sufficient to pin point that day in which it FIRST APEARED? And do we need to hike to the altitude of 9600 feet to SEE its FIRST APPEARENCE? Is any one catching what I’m saying? Are we insinuating that the ancients were idiots? Isn’t it obvious as to who the idiots are? Let me say at this time, I do not believe that the Indians as we know them today are the ones who have constructed this wheel, and that this comment is not for the purpose of diminishing this noble people. With the exception of a few tribes such as the Lenape and Ojibwa, the various tribes had no writing system and chose to resort to oral tradition. Since none of them claim to have made the marks upon the rocks or to have been responsible for the Earthworks of the Mississippi Valley or Utah Earthworks, why would they then build this wheel? You will notice I refer to the builders as the ancients and not the Indians.

In this same article it is said that these stars which play symbolic roles in an ancient Cheyenne Massaum ceremony and are also important stars in the sacred Lakota circle constellation The Animal. Yet in the links provided in the article (if one should visit them) you would find nothing pertaining to these stars which are the focal points to their theory. 

In the article, it is written: From about 1200 AD to 1700 AD, these 4 stars would have acted as solstice markers for the Native Americans. Why? Was the Sun missing in those days? But the one statement that got me more than anything else was the concluding statement, and hence marking the end of summer and time to leave the mountain. This is the most asinine statement yet. I don’t suppose the increasing cold weather and the turning of the leaves or even the early snow might have been a clue as to when to leave the mountain? What? They sat up there day after day waiting for this prophetic sign? Who was tending the sheep down below? 

A friend has mentioned that this could simply be a game of duck duck goose, and is it any less ridiculous than the theory for the alignments with stars? 

What is it?

In order for anything pertaining to this geo-glyph and/or observatory to make sense, we need to understand some things pertaining to the ancients of which the Indians are in part the descendants of. What was it that they worshipped, Stars? Many of the tribes in the origin and creation legends make note of a supreme being and many of those acknowledge the Son of God (including the Aztecs). Many of the tribes, though they communicated in many ways, made it clear that they worshipped the Sun, or more definitively, that which was behind it. Being clarified, they meant the power behind it. The only logical explanation in which this circle of stones was built in such a high place is not for a game of alpine duck duck goose but because of the vantage point of being able to see the largest spectrum of the horizon. 

In the Native American Petroglyphs, the symbol for sky or the horizon around it is the circle with a base meaning of Holding, in other words it is my belief that the circle itself represents the horizon as viewed from this ideal location. (See the Article; Aztec Navigation Glyphs) Each of the cairns is positioned to represent a specific location upon the horizon, its equivalent in the symbol based petroglyphs being that of a dot or something similar. Although some of the cairns appear to be built in the shape of a U, I would think that they were intended to be a circle which here again is implied by the symbol Holding. Regardless, I would have no doubt that they are positioned for viewing some point such as a sunset or sunrise to mark a point in time or possibly a place in the distance such as a city.. 

The purpose of marking some point in time would be best understood by us in our celebration of the Birth of Christ on the specific day of December 25th (which of course is not the correct day). We also have specific means by recording and observing the shortest day, the longest day and the two times each year which mark a time when the day is equal in time with the night or the mid point between summer and winter. We don’t need stars for this but there are many reasons why anyone (including the ancients) wanted to know these times specifically. 

Also, take into consideration that regardless of the mountains around a valley, the same thing could have been accomplished in a valley, why did they choose to construct this wheel at the highest point? Many times throughout scriptural history we read of Prophets going to the tops of mountains to speak with God. Even today, many feel more connected when praying in the mountains. The point is that it would seem quite clear: the reasons for its construction are religious in nature as I can find no other reasonable explanation which warrants its construction at one of highest points around. 

There are two things that need to be determined. (1) When was this built? I don’t think it is possible to find out exactly when it was built but perhaps it is possible to discover if it had Origins in BC times. (2) We have the need to discover if it truly has any Solstice/Equinox alignments or related perspectives as well as comparing AD times with BC Times.

 


 Fig. 3

 

In looking at Eddy’s drawing of the wheel above, we see the alignments that he noticed. It would seem that he noticed two solar alignments, of which, both appear to be noteworthy.

 


Fig. 4

 

It has been said that Eddy’s alignments would have been more accurate for 1200 to 1700 AD. I would love to hear what this excuse for non accuracy is based upon; let’s see how accurate it is in the above image (Fig. 4). The red lines are based upon full sun above the horizon at 5.3 degrees elevation which is the first point of Full Sun. At Eddy’s sunrise position, I must admit that the sun peeks over and casts its first light at his projected point with half sun exposed in between his projection and the red line. This is with a visual horizon at 100 feet higher at 4.3 miles away. What this means is that Eddy’s proposal of alignment is acceptable for the Summer Solstice sunrise. The red line at the sunset position is basically the same in reverse; for sunset at the red line we have full sun at 5.3 degrees elevation with a visible horizon at 1600 feet lower at over 30 miles away. If this is the case and not much adjustment is needed, this would place his sunset position nearly correct at full sun. I find, at two other points, satisfactory alignments with Winter Sunrise and Sunset, but not as acceptable as the summer positions, however, who is going to be up there in 4 to 6 feet of snow to see it? I cannot find any other solar alignment within this stone circle based on today’s North.

What if this were constructed in BC times? What solar alignments would we find?

According to my compiled research, I have established a BC North Pole and with this pole in mind let’s see what we can come up with. 

In the following image, Fig. 5 using Eddy’s cairn letters, you can see a red line extending from Eddy’s C Cairn to F which would represent BC north (F) and south (C), Notice the line does not intersect with the center. I would almost think this was intentional as if to say, it was not meant to align with the horizon. In similar stone geo-glyphs with solar alignments, I have noticed that there is a North reference. I would suspect that if the outer circle correlates with the meaning of horizon then is it possible that the center cairn represents the Sun being held and that the outer dots are showing different locations on the horizon?

The Yellow line extending from D through the middle points to the BC Summer Solstice Sunrise. This position is calculated at 47 degrees azimuth and 4 degrees elevation of the sun (5.3 degrees being FULL Sunrise with a 0 degree horizon). The actual visible horizon is located some 15 miles away and is 1600 feet lower than the wheel, which means at 4 degrees you would have full sunrise. At cairn D, we have a perfect alignment.

 


Fig. 5

 

At the sun’s position with the line at cairn B extending through the center based on 324 degrees azimuth at a 0 degree elevation, if the visible horizon were not 70 miles away and 1000 feet lower we would have a ½ sunrise, but it is 1000 feet lower and 70 miles away, so this means that at approximately 324 degrees azimuth we have full sun, another perfect alignment. Keep in mind that at 60 degrees Latitude, the sun moves laterally more than it does vertically. 60 degrees was the latitude in BC times, today it is located at a Latitude of 44.83 N.

 

What about an equinox sunset or sunrise for that matter? In Fig. 6, from the position of cairn A, a line extending though the center in BC times would be about 260 degrees. The visible horizon is some 150 miles away and 3000 feet higher. Not taking this into consideration and based on an equal elevation; full sun (at a 5.3 degree elevation) would be at 162 degrees. However, considering the horizon is 3000 feet higher and 150 miles away, if an additional 1 degree was added in elevation (which seems reasonable), full sun prior to sunset based on this information would be at 260 degrees azimuth, which is a perfect alignment for the equinox sunset. However, this is one that I would have to see for myself.

 

Fig. 6

 

The equinox sunrise, in order to fit into the same alignment opposite of the line in the previous picture would require 79 degrees, but the sun at this point would have just have peeked over the visible horizon which is a little over 7 miles away and 300 feet lower. Although this could prove to be an accurate alignment, I’m just not satisfied with it.

At full sun, the alignment would look something like this.

 

Fig. 7

 

I would think that the equinox sunrise would be considered an important alignment and one that the ancients would be most concerned with, however I must say that although it is good enough, I was slightly disappointed. I guess I’ll just have to go see for myself that is unless there is another possibility. How about this…? SEE Fig. 8

 

Fig. 8

 

The only thing that puzzles me about this is, why not set up a cairn in such a way that if a line were drawn on it, it would pass through the center? I don’t know why this is important to me, it just is. Perhaps I am being too meticulous. Now the fall and the spring equinox sunrises occur at 98 degrees azimuth, both alignments in the above picture are at 98 degrees. Is this just a coincidence? If so, it’s a pretty good one.

 

Winter Solstice

 

Now although I really don’t think anyone would be there to witness it, and can’t think for the life of me why anyone would indicate a winter solstice sunrise at such an elevation, it would appear that it is present, See Fig 9. Considering that the visible horizon is about 300 feet lower and a quarter mile short of 7 miles away at 141 degrees, if a line were drawn from the center cairn through cairn B (Opposite Summer Sunset); this would mark the exact placement of 141 degrees azimuth at near full sun.

 

Strangely enough, if we allowed the sun to continue to a full sunrise, we would be at approximately 159 degrees. Keep in mind that the sun at this point during the winter is traversing the sky in more of a horizontal path than a vertical one. If a line were drawn from Eddy’s cairn D to cairn E and beyond this also would point directly at full winter solstice sunrise.

 

Fig. 9

 

With the winter solstice sunset, we have remarkably the opposite. A line drawn from the center through D which is at 224 degrees azimuth is exactly the opposite of the summer solstice sunrise with the visible horizon only a mile away at the same elevation. At 224 degrees the sun has gone down with only about 1/4 of it exposed. If we come back to full sun prior to solstice sunset, the sun is at 195 degrees azimuth. With careful positioning of our lines, we can get two alignments that meet at a measurement of 195 degrees. What I mean by careful is for you to notice where the line leaves cairn F and passes through D and where it leaves cairn A and passes through B, it is not perfect. Maybe I’m just being too meticulous again.

What about other alignments? In looking at cairn E naturally I wanted to see if this aligns with something significant.  Why is it removed from the outer circle as if to imply that it has some other meaning? 

In Fig. 12, If a line were drawn from the center of the medicine wheel to cairn E it marks a place on the horizon some 77 miles away and 100 feet higher than that of the wheel. The dates we have a sunset with full sun at this location in BC times would have been the Evening of May 11th and the evening of July 30th which is at 297 degrees azimuth. What is interesting about this is that from the sunset of the 11th of May to the Summer Solstice sunset is 40 days, the 11th of May and the 21st of June (not inclusive). The return trip of the sun from the 21st to the 30th of July (inclusive) is also 40 days. This same thing appears in other suspect Adena mound sites, why would these suspect Hebrews be observing a 40 day period let alone two consecutive? Why this 40 day observation period? 

It would appear to be an 80 day period of two 40 day observation periods. What could have been the purpose of this 80 day observation? In the scriptures we observe the 40 day fast of Moses to receive the higher law then after receiving it, Moses returned to the Israelites whereby he had seen their iniquities and broke the tablets. Then he returned to the mount and fasted another 40 days to receive the lesser law. Interestingly enough, the Aztecs had a similar fasting ritual. The point is that according to today’s North, it would not have any meaning whatsoever and the scientists would be just as confused as they seem to be concerning the Murray Farm Tunnel.

What about the sunrise direction? Is it also present there? Well guess what. Yes, it is and without a stretch of the imagination or the facts, a line drawn from cairn D through the center is Summer Solstice Sunrise. In Fig. 13 a line drawn from cairn D through cairn A will give us a 62 degree azimuth for the Mornings of May 11th and July 30th. It is a repeat of the previous two forty day periods except that it is for sunrise instead of sunset.

 

Fig. 13 

But wait a minute, haven’t we heard this before? It would seem that the same dates are two consecutive 40 day periods, which are also present at the Milford Earthworks.

The Plains Indians didn’t build the Milford Earthworks. Some people called the Allegwi did. You know, those people who were run off and went south and became the Aztecs? 

Yes, the Aztecs who in part came from the North who also have two consecutive 40 day periods of Fasting, like Moses when he received the first tablets for the Israelites and after breaking them had to return to the mountain and fast another 40 days? Where did the Allegwi learn this? Oh well, no matter. I’m sure it is all a coincidence. 

All of the above information is exact and true to the best of my knowledge without any stretching of the truth or the imagination. Visual horizons were considered in each case and determined accordingly. Anyone who would like to see the full details of how I arrived at each location is more than welcome and I will be happy to explain it further. But the best way to verify all of this is to go to the site and set up wooden stakes at the adjusted locations according to BC North, we could implement a pole change back to where it was, but history shows this can be catastrophic and besides, it won’t be long before it will be happening again. I hope you are all prepared.

 

The Geo-glyph 

Many will not understand what is said in the following but it will reach those for whom it is intended, even so, I will do the best I can to make it clear. There is much speculation as to what a medicine wheel is and what it was used for. Aside from you creating a medicine wheel for your purposes, I have yet to see anyone identify what they were used for, the idea or concept in some cases is similar, but not even the Indians who use them today seem to understand what they were. This is because the knowledge of the symbol based glyph system is nearly extinct. 

These circles of stones were created by the same people who pecked the glyphs on the rocks found everywhere in North America, or their descendants who retained the knowledge of the hieroglyphs. Of the many types of Medicine Wheels as we have come to know them, each reveals its intended purpose by the way it is laid out and where it is located. This method of laying out the stones on the ground is based upon the exact same principles as the Native American petroglyphs themselves. For example, the following Medicine Wheel, Fig. 14, was used for communicating with their God and including their ancestors.

 


Fig. 14

 

If you view this as a glyph and recognize the various symbols that make it up along with the positioning of the symbols, it will identify its purpose. The symbols that you see within this wheel use the base meaning of Holding, Place of Dead, and Holding in one place. The individual would sit in the center with the idea of being surrounded by his ancestors who have passed on, by the ancestors surrounding them no evil could come to them and their purpose for coming to the medicine wheel is thereby uninhibited by evil spirits.

In Fig. 15 the medicine wheel was used specifically for communicating with the creator, God above, the Son of God, or the Sun of God. I am the light and the life of the world.

This is said 11 times in our scriptures and yet we suppose that the Ancients didn’t understand this? Most of us don’t understand it, but the Ancients did. It will ALWAYS be located where it catches First Sunlight. If it isn’t, then it was built by someone other than the Ancients; such as the new-agers, or a later people who have forgotten its purpose or never knew it.

 

Fig. 15

Simple, direct and to the point. 

There are many other uses of medicine wheels and each identifies its purpose by its construction. With the knowledge of the symbol based glyph system of hieroglyphs, we can identify its purpose. Fig. 16 is just another of the many that exist.

 


Fig. 16

 

The Big Horn Medicine Wheel had a similar purpose to that of Fig. 15 and 16; however, it has many interesting things integrated into it. In addition to the alignments which seem to correspond with different aspects of the Sun, hidden within the wheel is still more that clarifies its purpose. If one is to connect the dots so to speak it reveals the following in Fig. 17.

 


Fig. 17

 

With a little understanding of the glyphs, the circle itself (as pointed out earlier) represents the Horizon as being the border of the sky. The center Cairn represents the Sun, Son, or creator who oversees all that is under the sky and in the sky. Each Cairn positioned at the many places around the circle represents a specific location on the horizon or a point in time which was significant and important to the Ancients as it relates to that which they believed. 

When we join the perimeter Cairns it reveals a well know symbol which is quite fitting in what it represents. I’m not talking about the meaning attributed in general to the Star of David, but rather speaking of Him who is of the lineage of David who is the bright and morning star, a concept which is very applicable. 

Turning to the pages of…

 

Temples Of the Most High (Significance of Ancient, Geometric Symbols) pg.240,241

“We will now draw these symbols that you may better understand them:


“You will notice that there are two triangles, one with the point downward, and the other with the point upward. These are combined in the symbol of the interlaced triangles, or the six pointed star. The triangles when used separately gives each triangle a distinct and separate meaning. The one with the point upward, is called the symbol of manifestation on the, material plane, and symbolizes mankind focusing their thoughts on God; the triangle with the point downward represents manifestation on the spiritual, or Divine plane, and symbolizes God’s consciousness focalized on mankind. In this six pointed star formed by the interlaced triangle we symbolize the blending, or uniting, of the physical and the spiritual.


        The square represents building uprightly on a strong secure foundation. The circle, which is endless, is the universal symbol of eternal life. The square and the interlaced triangles are the only two equiangular and equilateral figure, the sum of whose exterior angles equals 360 degrees, or perfection, as symbolized by the circle. From these symbols, we learn that by building uprightly on a strong secure foundation, we unite the physical and the spiritual, and with them inseparably connected, as symbolized by the interlaced triangles, we have eternal life.”

 

What better symbol to manifest itself over all of the medicine wheel than with the very thing that it represents positioned in the center and with its purpose and concept clarified in the symbol itself? This is a place where the Ancients went to communicate with their God and to observe certain points in time having to do with him or some observed event of the past. Some are known to us along with their significance, and some, I am quite certain, that we have forgotten. They didn’t NEED the medicine wheel to tell them these points in time; they used it for the purpose of the observation of principles that were important to them so that they were observed at the right point in time.

Were they any different than us? Do we not now begin to observe the day of Christmas the very day after Thanksgiving? 25 days before the intended day! How ridiculous? Do we not go through many rituals leading up to this day? Do we make several trips to the merchants for the purposes of hanging strange illuminated objects from our houses and for placing them in our yards? Do we make visits to the Mall to put our children in Satan’s Claws, or attend Christmas parties (ceremonies) worshiping some short fat man in a red suit and a mythical deer that flies? Do we not make sure that every little detail is perfect in respect to this according to our own individual beliefs? Rest assured IT IS going to happen the morning of the 25th! These people MUST be Pagans! 

We can’t seem to understand that the Ancients were not so different as you or me. From what I can see of them, it would seem that they at least understood whose birthday it was, and what day it really was and who they worshiped. I hope that this article will help you to understand that things are not always as they seem, in fact they never are. What are all the lines that radiate from the center Cairn? They are not uniform, were they put there to make it look more appealing? Is it possible that they are a representation of some points in time? Why are there 28 of them, why not 30? Why is one Cairn set apart away from the main circle seemingly unattached? Why are there 6 of them? Is there more to this wheel than we know? I am certain that there is much more to this wheel and I am sure much more concerning it will come out. For now this is all that I choose to say about it. 

In conclusion, The Ancients built this medicine wheel, if that’s what you choose to call it, for the purpose of Worshiping One God, and they knew who He was. They knew the specific points in time for worship according to the event to be observed, which is much more than I can say for this people today.

If science would at least consider a creator, intelligent design, and theories they so quickly dusted under the rug for fear of peer pressure  they just might come to understand many things… 

Things such as the mystery of the sunken cities of the Mediterranean, where did the ocean disappear to that once covered Northern Africa? Where did the ocean that the Chinese say swept west to east across their coun

try in a great flood come from? Are the Africans entitled to get it back? Where di the waters thet divided the land here in North America? Why are many of the old Spanish maps showing California as an Island? Where did the waters of the Black sea and the Caspian sea really come from? And how did they end up so far inland? What really happened as a result of a sudden pole shift that cause absolutely no growth of vegetation in the Atacama desert of Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chili? What really happened? What was it so massive that slammed into the coast causing so much destruction stripping the entire area of any possible vegetation growth just like the tops of the Uinta Mountains? Why is it the oldest forests on the planet are where they are? Why not Seattle? Michigan, England, France or Eastern China ect? Why Africa, Brazil and Australia? Why do we not have a north pole? Instead we have a North ring ranging roughly 1700 miles in diameter in the pole areas?! They just might learn that there was NEVER an Ice Age let alone two, yet they may find a cataclysmic event that occurred in the days of Peleg when “the Earth Divided” (which doesn’t mean what you think)… and caused an instant freez in the North and South in about 2700 BC!  they may even learn that South America has always been where it is, Africa has always been where Africa is and every other continent, there are no such thing as tectonic plates and the super continent Pangea is a physiological impossibility and is a big pile of bull shit!
