Mastodon |
Discovered in 2007 and 40 feet under the surface of Grand Travers Bay off of Lake Michigan, were a series of stones arranged in a circle. Originally, the archeologists were searching for sunken ships, they found ships, a car, even a Civil War-era pier, but it was the discovery of the circular stones, and in particular, one stone setting out from the circle, that alerted the scientific community that this was a significant find. On the rock was the carving of a mastodon. Mastodons have been extinct for 10,000 years.

When I heard about this, I thought about my trip to see the Newark Earthworks in Ohio, the ancient Native American Indian mounds that are thought to be an observatory for the moon. The Circle, that I photographed, pictured below, is the
exact same circumference as England's Stonehenge.
Is this the same ancient civilization that was in Michigan, that was in Ohio and in England?
