Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 696757 India 06/09/2009 08:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Another archaological site that has ancient fortifications is on the mountain overlooking Dalton, GA (directly up on the right from the trade and convention center). Supposedly an ancient wall already existed there before being rebuilt for use as an entrenchment during the civil war. I was there during my lunch break one day and was startled by a native american in full dress, with the head piece and all. Chanting (/talking) to a flock of eagles (I guess) that were flying over him. It seems to me that every time I walk out of the house now there is a flock of eagles flying in circles above me. Coinkidink? |

I was friends with a girl (sherry carter) whose dad ran the bulldozer to build river front park way. He brought home buckets of artifacts. I saw them in person (They were shown to me). Some of them didn't look cherokee at all. |

I worked with a guy named david (can't think of his last name) who lived right next to the creek on signal mountain that goes and forms rainbow falls at point park. directly down from where the creek crosses the road (before the signal mountain leaf fill) is a natural cave/bluff/overhang. It's hard to reach from the falls because you have to climb rock cliffs. Him and his family took buckets and buckets of ancient indian artifacts from this natural shelter. |

He was actually there around the 500 a.d. marker. He was the brother of King Arthur...yup, that one. A couple of British Scholars have unearthed a great deal about this connection. I know you will find many incorrect dates for him, most around the 1200 marker. But that is part of the subtrefuge. There is a reason they do not want us to know of King Arthur...nor his relatives. It has the potential to unravel the Great Mirage in which mankind has been imprisoned for eons. |

At Skylarka springs down from covenant college at the base of the mountain (part of point park) has ancient stone rubble piles. Supposedly the remnants of a cherokee village...chief skylarka. Up suck creek (rd) some ways are ancient stone rubble piles. Also on top of the ridge there at suck creek is also an ancient indian burial ground. |

That might help to explain. Why the 'Eagles' are suddenly, in your life. My second great grandfather was John Oliver, one of the first white settlers in TN. He married a cherokee indentured servant (cherokee orphan). He lived in Cades Cove which is now part of the smoky mountain national park (600 acres). The John Oliver's cabin is now a national monument. Family legend says that the locals didn't like him being married to a Cherokee and being friends with other cherokee in the area and so they conspired to take his land. He tried to fight the seizure of his land (to form the smoky mtn national park), and by doing so he lost the "fair offer price" that was given to those who didn't fight the takeover. He subsequently committed suicide. An odder apsect to it all is my wife's grandmother is an oliver, from john oliver's brother william. He also married Cherokee. So my wife and I are like third cousins. |

I didn't pick up the one at: "Legend attributes three stone forts to Prince Madoc's people.

mercury2 User ID: 434555 France 06/09/2009 10:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cool post OP. I knew there were a lot of old stone monuments in New England, but I didn't know about the ones in the southeast. You might enjoy reading at The New England Antiquities Research Association (NEARA) [link to www.neara.org] I think that's the right link. It's hard to find the article archive on the web site there, if I remember correctly. you have to poke around for it but there are cool articles about old stone walls, underground tunnels and tombs, standing stones, petroglyphs, etc. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 699080 India 06/09/2009 10:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well there was a big to-do over them bulldozing one set of burial grounds to build a golf course there at moccasin bend.... One rainy day, I rode my bicycle down to Moccasin Bend to see the burial grounds for myself. They were easy to find, just had to follow the no trespassing signs. Well I was rooting around in the river there sifting through the mud and found several pieces of burial jar and a few cool rocks. I took these home with me (I was living off east manning st at the time) and laid the artifacts on my chester drawer. I went to wash up and called my wife (then GF) and was telling her about what I had found. But when I went to look on my chester drawer only the rocks were there, the pieces of burial pot were missing. I never found them. This always puzzled me greatly. Directly across the river from this burial ground is the cave that Johny Cash had his epiphany in. It was used during the civil war but was closed off due to homeless people taking shelter in it. My aunt said the cherokee considered the area between moccasin bend and suck creek to be haunted. This would be elder and racoon mountains. Both of these mountains have a crap load of UFO activity...I mean a CRAP load. |

An example would be, Hopi had the Eagle, Navajo had the Hawk and so on. Eagle just don't start acknowledging someone, out of the blue.

Love all the great info,I grew-up in N.E Alabama and have little Indian blood from both parents sides. Wish i could go home and check these sites out,we had a small burial plot on my grandmothers land and we were told never mess with it. Several Indian graves that my Grandmother said was old Family,maybe she meant ancestors. Lots of caves me and sibs would find had cave-wall drawings(very cool). |
