Who was he?
Porcupine
1848-1929
In
his older years
I would like to tell you about a man whom history seems to have forgotten or never really told of… . I am surprised however at the write up in WIKI. I would recommend a read of the WIKI ditty. The article is actually not half bad… with some untrue statements… Porcupine was not a Medicine man by his own admission. However he was a chief, one of the last of the Dog Soldiers, apostle and as it seems, a friend of Christ. Of all the things said about him which made him a supposed criminal, he was guilty of only protecting and trying to live his way of life in which the encroaching Europeans were steeling from him and his people. Prohibiting their religious freedoms? Hypocrites! But then, according to the powers that be of the time, the native people were barely human.
Thomas B. Marquis seems to be
the main source for info in the WIKI ditty, a man who said he met Porcupine, but some of the testimony he gives is believable but more so I find hard to believe…
“As a
"bad Indian" he was of the most gentle type. The high regard for him
was not restricted to his own people ... Even the missionaries liked him, their only condemnation being that he was
an apostle of paganism.”
— Thomas B.
Marquis
But let me tell you what WIKI and apparently Marquis neglected to tell you as to why Porcupine is so well remembered by some of us…
So… let’s tell you of the actual event told by F. K. UPHAM, in the Boston Journal and Later published in the longest continuously published periodical of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and show you why some took notice of Porcupine…
The following is dubbed as
the Walker Lake Incident… but it didn’t happen at

The following testimony of Porcupine, who participated in the
The occasion of this was the appearance of the disciple Porcupine, a
Some time last winter this
The recent return of Porcupine to the reservation made the
The reappearance of
Porcupine among such conditions added
to the complications with which the Indian agent had to contend, and he
requested by telegraph of the Interior department at Washington that Porcupine
might be arrested by the troops, which request was at once responded to by the
War Department, and the arrest promptly ordered. Porcupine immediately expressed his willingness, and in fact a wish, to go without delay to Fort
Custer and explain his position, and what he knew of the Savior who has come to his people. The agent withdrawing his request for the
arrest, Porcupine came to
He was an erect
handsome, and perfectly developed young Indian, standing fully six feet in
height, with a pleasant, sprightly face, the mobility of his features
indicating anything but the traditional Indian. Clad in a garment of striped
wool red and white, the stripes several inches broad, evidently made from blankets, belted at
the waist and extending to the knee, with a tuft of eagle feathers knotted in
his scalp-lock, certainly he was not lacking in the picturesque. Squatting the
fashion of his race, near the center of the room, just in rear of him his squaw
and the two companions of his pilgrimage, through an interpreter he told what
he had seen of the Christ who had now come.
His story was
prefaced as all Indian " talks" are by the information that what he
was now about to say was " the truth " and pointing to his mouth he indicated that his words would go straight to the
front "neither to the right nor the left, he had "no forked
tongue." Then rising to his full height, he assumed the exact attitude
which we have been taught to believe that Jesus took when blessing the
disciples the upper portion of the body slightly inclined forward, the arms
extended to full length, with the hands dropping downward the eyes closed, Then
he trembled violently from head to foot, alternately changing the position of
his bands to across his breast, then to the waist with the left hand, the right
dropping by the side. In this position he remained fully five minutes, during
which the heads of his Indian
companions were dropped in silence, and the room was so still that the
fall of a pin might have been heard. Having completed this, seemingly a silent
prayer, he resumed his former place on the floor and began.
On the wall hung a large military map of the United Sates, indicating
the various army posts of the West, and so nearly as the mysterious location
could to established where the Christ had been found, it was possibly in the
vicinity of Walker or Pyramid Lake in Nevada. It was in the mountains. Porcupine found himself with many strange
Indians, whose language he could not speak, and who like himself, had come from
far off, but all had come to see the Christ. At sundown the Indians collected
in large numbers, and after it became dark he appeared to them, a large fire being
built to throw the light on him. He was not as dark as an Indian, nor as light
as a white man, and his dress was partly like each. He sat for a long time in
perfect silence, with his head bowed, during which time the Indians neither
moved nor spoke. They were told that if they even whispered the Christ would
know it and be displeased. After a time he raised his head, and then Porcupine
saw that he was fair to look upon, that his face had no beard, and was
youthful, and that his bright hair extended to the waist. Porcupine had heard
that the Christ of the white man had been nailed to a cross, and, looking, he
was able to see the scars of the nails in the hands of the Indian's Christ when
he raised them. In his feet he could not see the marks of the nails by reason
of the moccasins, but he was told they were there, and that in his side were
spear marks which were concealed by the shirt he wore. Porcupine was told that his
own coming had, with eleven others been foretold by the Christ, who
had sent for him, and that was why he had involuntarily taken the long journey;
that all the heathen tribes there represented had been influenced in the same
manner, though all had not been individually called, as he had.
The Christ spoke to
them and took Porcupine by the hand, and told them, that they were all his
children. He talked to them until it was day, telling them that he had made
them, and all the things around them; that in the beginning God had made the
earth, and after a time had sent him on the earth to teach the people what was
right, but the people were afraid of him, and "this is what they did to
me," showing his scars. He said when he found the children were bad he
went back above, and promised to return after many hundred years. Now the time
was up, and God had told him the earth was old and worn out, and had sent him
again to renew it, and make things better. He said that all the dead were to be
resurrected and brought back to life on this earth, which was now too small to
hold them all, but he would do away with heaven and make the earth large enough
to hold them all. He spoke about fighting, that it was bad, and that Indians
must not do it any more; that the earth hereafter, was to be all good and
everybody must love one another. He said he would send those among them who
could heal wounds and cure the sick by a laying on of the hands, and that the
good would live here forever and the buffalo would Come back He said it was
wrong to kill men of any kind, that here after the whites and the Indian would
become one people; that if any man disobeyed these teachings he would be
banished from the face of the earth; that the Indians must believe all that he
now told them, and not say that he lied, for he would know their thoughts, no
matter in what part of the world they were, and they could not expect to
deceive him.
Among those whom
Porcupine saw were some who seemed like white men, but they all I seemed good,
there was no drinking or fighting, and all listened and believed what the
Christ said to them. During Porcupine's stay of many days the Christ several
times repeated these talks, and told the Indians that when they returned to
their people they must tell them all these things. But he was not at all times
visible, and could disappear at will.
"He is here among us tonight, and knows all
that we are talking about," said Porcupine.
Porcupine continued: "When I heard all these
things I came back to my people, and they listened to me. Ever since I heard
these things from the Christ I have thought they were good. I can see nothing
bad in them. I knew my people were bad, and I got them together and told them.
I warned them to listen, for it was for their own good. I talked to them four
nights and five days, and said just what I said here tonight. I told them, these
were the words of the Almighty God who was looking down on them and knew what
was in their hearts. I wish some who are here had heard my words to the

For those of you who missed this one...
This may not be for everyone however, I have decided to reveal a small part of my secret in locating glyphs and other things that many do not know of, (Moreso in the article following, See Link at the end) but forgive me if I am cryptic... it is for good cause... I wish I could explain...
Most of you have heard of the fictional or mythical Atlantis, most of you have seen movies about it and even documentaries proposing the possibilities of it being an actual or at least in part, a real historical place of the past. But what is it you really believe?
Let’s see what the academics have to say from its most
public source these days, my favorite and yours… the Wonderful and Wise WIKI.
Atlantis '
But please read the entire write up on WIKI… it stinks of deception, ignorance, cover up, conjecture and the inability to think things through… But I admit, it could be partially true,,, but allegory? I don’t think so…
“is a fictional island mentioned in an allegory” is Stated as a FACT in one article but the following found in another article was conveniently left out…
WIKI: Many interpreters of Plato ??held?? that his writings contain passages with double meanings, called allegories, symbols, or myths, that give the dialogues layers of figurative meaning in addition to their usual literal meaning.
I wish I had more time…

Before I go down the road to Atlantis, let’s briefly reflect upon a place mentioned in the book of Genesis and located in the Garden of Eden. Eden derives from a Sumerian word edin meaning "plain" or "steppe", closely related to an Aramaic root word meaning "fruitful, well-watered" The WIKI writers pull no punches placing the Garden in the old world, but a shock to me is they actually mention the proposed locations and including the general Mormon perspective being the Jackson County location, however, apparently misunderstood even by those who should know and which is quite common with Mormon doctrine, NEVER did any of the old prophets mention or say the Garden was in Jackson county, IT IS Adam Ondi Ahman that was in Jackson county, it being the place where Adam “dwelt” AFTER being expelled from the Garden, and when he left the garden, he went EAST, so… does this mean the garden is somewhere west of Jackson County? Adam Ondi Ahmen is NOT the Garden of Eden.
The Garden of
Eden is described in the Book of Genesis as the source of four tributaries” But the description is like no other, it is
said not in so many words, that a large source of water comes from the ground
and divides into four rivers. Question… Where on this planet does a large river
divide into four rivers? There are plenty of places where four rivers come
together to form one, but not the opposite. I only know one place where this
has occurred in the past. One of the rivers is described as the river Pison,
later to be known as
Atlan-tis (of Atlan)
Described as an
One of the many renditions of what
Atlantis may have looked like
I am reminded of Aztlan of the Aztec
Atlantis is “described as an island
consisting mostly of mountains in the northern portions and along the shore and
encompassing a great plain in
an oblong shape in the south "extending in one direction three
thousand stadia”
This plain is also described in the Tucson Lead Cross artifacts in the earthquake event.
Lead Cross
inscription. "A.D. 880. Israel III, for liberating the Toltezus, was
banished. He was first to break the custom. The earth shook. Fear overwhelmed
the hearts of men in the third year after he had fled. They betook themselves
into the city and kept themselves within their walls. A dead man thou shall
neither bury nor burn in the city. Before the city a plain was extending. Hills
rung the city.
Back to Atlantis, here on this land we have a huge gap of missing history, even bigger from the academic point of view, academia has tried real hard to fill that gap with stories of barely human people… basket makers, hunter gatherers, paleo Indians, etc all words designed to satisfy the casual thinker and reader, and it worked for the most part.
Based on the description given by Plato, ANYWHERE west
of the Pillars of Hercules could be the target, I don’t know why some still try
to fit it into the
If Atlantis actually existed and it was on this continent, there is really only one people it could have been given the erroneous date Josephus gave of 9000 years. Or rather, repeated from what he had heard or read, it would have been more accurate at 4400 years since their arrival on this continent. This people or what I would call the first Americans or inhabitants on this land since the great flood, if you wish to see what they may have looked like and you don’t mind your bubble of blonde hair and blue eyes being burst, then go look up the people still abundant to this day, and other than size, haven’t hardly changed at all, the Altai Mongolian, some call them Jaredites.
They were here 1800 years! you gotta hand it to them
for it is iniquity which brings people down even unto their destruction. Their
destruction came down to the conflicting pride of two Kings… Those who survived
last this great battle, the blood of them flows through the Native people of
today especially here in the west, in the form of DNA Haplogroup A, B, C, &
D. Their literal remains from this great battle still remains to this day, and
if I told you where, a majority would never believe it. If curiosity is too
much for you, take a drive out west of Fillmore to what’s left of

Countless books, article and ditties have been written
about him some of which I am sure is true. Just go to WIKI and you will find
one of the larger ditties rivaling even WIKI’s write up on Jesse James by about
75%, and we all know how wrong they got his story. No less than 172 references
are listed, dozens and dozens of books written and all of this came from 376

pages titled HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIP OF
LIFE AND APOSTOLICS Tasks of the venerable Father Fray Junipero Serra. If EACH
of the 172 references written about Junipero Serra had only half the amount of
pages of the original it would be just under 32,000 pages of partial truths, sugar
coating, regurgitation, speculation, opinion, conjecture, contradictions and
some good old fashioned bullshit. The majority of the references were written
from 1955 to present, most in the last 20 years.
If any of you would like a copy of the original Spanish, or the English translation, …ask.

today, is because there are things the many writers have missed but rightfully
so, because they just didn’t know. Was Junipero Serra in the

these artifacts could not possibly have been here 13,500 years ago by reasons
covered in the Book Nephite North and concerning the Radio Metric Guessing game
and the reliability of it along with other reasons found in other sections of the book
supporting a young earth belief. So we are left to look at the evidence from a
different perspective as we know that the people responsible arrived here about
600 BC. There are only three significant groups of people considered, who came
to this land and established colonies if you exclude the modern day Gentile

As I skim through all the information on the internet today pertaining to the Clovis we find still, people arguing about who first discovered America, I have the answer, It was God, so why can’t we stop with the pride and just accept the fact that some man was the first here on this continent and that man was Adam, call him white, black, yellow or pink if you choose and mold him into your agenda, but this is a fact and regardless of the evidences, this will be known in the end and as I have said before, this was approximately 6,000 years ago. Prior to Adam, there was no death on this planet in its present creation.

years ago, when were these Paleo-Indians

In recent years, a very sharp man in my humble opinion, by the name of Dennis Stanford of the Smithsonian Institute no less, gave a lecture at Gustavus Aldophus College, Saint Peter, Minnesota of which you can view on Youtube (The Blue Eyed Indian), where in he explains some very interesting information pertaining to Clovis. This mentioned video is now gone from Youtube, however Dennis’s presentations continue and you can see one of the latest at the same college here…

into the 4.5 Billion Year old earth theory giving erroneous dates based on theCarbon 14 Guessing game, Mr. Stanford shows facts concerning

The lost hunting party
Stanford has an idea for how humans
crossed the Atlantic, though—boats. Art from that era indicates that Solutrean
populations in northern Spain were hunting marine animals, such as seals,
walrus, and tuna.
They may have even made their way into the floating
ice chunks that unite immense harp seal populations in
Inuit use large, open hunting boats constructed from
animal skins for longer trips or big hunts. These boats, called
umiaq, can hold a dozen adults, as well as several children, dead seals or
walruses, and even dog-sled teams. Inuit have been building these boats for
thousands of years, and Stanford believes that Solutrean people may have used a
similar design.
It’s possible that some groups of these hunters
ventured out as
far as
“You get three boats loaded up like this and you would
have a viable population,” Stanford said. “You could actually get a whole bunch
of people washing up on
Some scientists believe that the Solutrean peoples
were responsible for much of the cave art in
“I don’t know,” Stanford said. “But you’re looking at
a long distance inland, 100 miles or so, before they would get to caves to do
art in.”
Not only is it possible the Solutreans
ventured out as far as
Raudhkollsstadhir
and Stykkishólmur and they
will eventually find this was an intentional act in establishing a trade route.
These people were not the simple minded people they portray them as, they
didn’t just pile into a big bowl like boat and drift until there luck panned
out. They may have hunted the marine animals mentioned but when their luck was
poor, they always had their gardens to turn to. As for the question asked by
Stanford’s opponents regarding cave art? Perhaps they have never heard of
Native American Pictographs and Petroglyphs. They will also come to know some

According to this hypothesis, people
associated with the Solutrean culture migrated from Ice Age Europe to North America, bringing their methods of making stone toolswith them
and providing the basis for the later Clovis technology found throughout North
America. The hypothesis rests upon proposed similarities between European
Solutrean and Early American Clovis lithic technology. Many archaeologists
have criticized the proposed similarities as too insignificant and just as
likely to be due to chance as to shared origins. As one has said, "few if
any archaeologists -- or, for that matter, geneticists, linguists, or physical
anthropologists -- take seriously the idea of a Solutrean colonization of
Though the proponents cite recent
archaeological findings in support of the theory, the hypothesis has generally

Concerning Chapter 7 of Nephite North,
Oceanic Evidences and Oil Deposits it
was this information about the Clovis/Solutrean connection that caused me to
lean more towards a lower Narrow Neck location. The red dot is
a prime location for arrowhead source material; it just didn’t make sense that
the people would cross the upper location I had previously thought and then
come south and out onto a peninsula to get their materials for Arrowheads. I also noticed that this above map helps shed
some light on where major battles may have taken place, and where they have
taken place several times for a very long time. Compare the above with not only
the new narrow neck location but all the previous information concerning Nephi
city,
If the large red dot represents a major
source of flint in which much of the western arrowheads were made from it just
seems the narrow neck may not have been as you see above, although both
proposed narrow neck locations are plausible, the following just makes more
sense given this source location and where in the obvious battles took place at
its west end. But then again, the source material is where it is…. Just for notice, the above and below earth images
showing the oceans in BC times is not arbitrary, it is based on cretaceous data,
geologic and archeological evidence and oil/gas spot maps which can be very
telling, oil exploration and drilling is almost always where there was an
ancient ocean or large bodies of water. The problem with making it all come
together in proper time sequence is the erroneous faulty Radio Carbon Dating
system.
