Not known by many is that two Egytologists, Kenneth Kitchen and James Hoffmeier have concluded that a close study of the Bible reveals that 480 years did not elapse from the Exodus to Solomon’s building of the Temple, instead almost 600 years elapsed putting the Exodus at 1540 BC instead of 1446 BC. This aligns the Exodus with the Hyksos expulsion under Pharaoh Ahmoses I, founder of the 18th Dynasty of Egypt. Dame Kenyon dated the fallen walls of Jericho to the Hyksos Expulsion and said Egyptians torched the town after the walls fell. No other walls were built thereafter. The Bible has Jericho being torched by Israel, who has arrived from Egypt, and Kenyon says Egyptians, in pursuit of the Hyksos, burned the walls. The problem? When the Exodus occurs the Bible says Israel fears the Philistines, so she takes the way to the Red Sea instead of the shortcut, the way to the land of the Philistines, which ends at Gaza. Egyptian accounts state the Philistines did not arrive in Canaan until circa 1175 BC in the reign of Pharaoh Rameses 3rd who defeated their attempt to conquer Egypt from Gaza. It would appear that the Bible has the wrong time period for the Philistines, portraying them as antagonists of Abraham at Beersheba circa 2000 BC. No evidence has been found of Israel’s Exodus in the Sinai. The cities conquered by Moses in Moab (modern Jordan) have been excavated and they date to circa 1150 BC not 1540 BC, not 1446 BC (as for example Heshbon). Conclusion: The Bible got right an Israelite settlement in a world that knew the names of Rameses in Egypt and of Philistines in Canaan, but got the date wrong, all this was circa 1200-1100 BC, for Moab’s villages and 1540 BC for the Hyksos Expulsion. Two events separated in time by 400 years came to be conflated and made into the Exodus myth. Why? The Bible tells us that after settling in Canaan the Israelites married the Canaanites and worshipped their gods. Apparently the Canaanites, being descendants of the Hyksos, passed on to their Israelite grandchildren the account of Jericho’s fall associated with the Hyksos Expulsion, and this was conflated with the 12th century settlement in Moab. Thus the Israelites of Iron Age I via intermarriages with Canaanites, came to be, in Iron Age II the descendants of the Hyksos.
Some scholars understand that Noah’s Flood is a recast of the Flood appearing in the Epic of Gilgamesh and Epic of Atrahasis. Enki (Ea) of Eridu warns one man of the flood to destroy mankind and to build a boat and put the seed of man and animals on board for a recovery of life after the flood. In the Bible it is God who does this. In other myths Enki (Ea) at Dilmun is portrayed having sex with his daughter, grand-daughter and great-grand-daughter, in other words incestuous sex of a pedophile nature. In other myths Enki (Ea) is portrayed as being a drunkard when he entertains Inanna of Uruk on a state visit to his abode at Eridu. All this is to say, that the Bible’s God, being a recast of Enki/Ea, means God was, in pre-biblical myths a rapist, a pedophile, having incestuous sex with his daughters, and a drunkard. I can see why the Hebrews would recast this god as unmarried, without any children, and without any other gods or goddesses being in existence. Yahweh-Elohim is portrayed as a God who has no sexual urges, and does not lust after beautiful maidens like the gods of the Sumerian EDIN. How many today would want to worship God if they knew he had been such an unsavory, loathsome character in the pre-biblical Mesopotamian myths?
Flourishes; small chance, but not the most likely. But it’s nothing like a rhino or hippo. It not quite an accurate stegasaurus either. But the thing is, the unlikely conditions for something to become a fossil combined with the difficulty of finding them means there can be dinosaur varieties we don’t know about. We know from the one above it the artist would make a small tail if it was an animal with a small tail.
I understand that Genesis is an anti-thesis, a response to and refutation of, an earlier Mesopotamian thesis explaining how man came to be created, why, where, and why he was almost annihilated in a worldwide flood. I have written two books on this subject, in 2010, The Garden of Eden Myth, Its Pre-biblical Origin in Mesopotamian Myths and Eden’s Serpent, Its Mesopotamian Origin. A number of scholars have suggested that EDIN was recast as EDEN and EDIN’S GODS were recast as EDEN’S GOD. Sumerian ADABA (Babylonian ADAPA) was recast as Adam. Enkidu was recast as Adam too, Shamhat being recast as Eve (see the Epic of Gilgamesh). The gods of EDIN created fruit-tree gardens to provide food to eat for themselves, for they could die of starvation with their fleshly bodies. Tiring of the labor in caring for their city-gardens in the midst of the EDIN, they create man to care for their gardens. Man’s purpose in life is to care for EDIN’s City-gardens, and present the harvest to the gods in temples so that the gods don’t die of starvation. The gods are fed meals twice a day, morning and evening. In the Bible EDEN’S God is fed twice a day, morning and evening at the Temple of Solomon just like EDIN’S Gods.
Need to check your dimensions – either the length or width is wrong, if you look at the image, Ship design usually has a length at least 4 times the length. If the length is right, looks like 4.3 feet wide, not 43.
Here in the Midwest, remnants of the Hopewell (and other) cultures, muted though they are, provide valuable and important clues to the ancient peoples of this continent. I myself have investigated some very curious rock formations in Upper Michigan; I still cannot determine (and I am a strict amateur) if these are, in fact, artificially-created objects or merely a bizarre combination of natural forces.
This being said, it would be helpful if some type of historical evidence had been provided, to assist in the author's claims of the lost tribe, whether it be Hopewell, Early Woodland, Adena, et al. Also (speaking as an architect) a ground plan or partial aerial survey would provide important information, as well.

Kerry… first a new correction, that of the rare X-Haplotype DNA found in Northern Europe and the Chippewa, Massapequa, Pequots, Chesapeakes, etc, who I suggest are connected to the Picts of Scotland. The Bog burial method is quite common in the English areas.
The atlatl dart throwing method is found almost the world over, ancient Eastern and Western Hemisphere, later replaced with identical bow-and-arrow weapons, all pre-Colombus.
Naming conventions, Ancient Eastern/Western hemispheres are remarkably the same.

The rare X Haploytype is found among these remains, which is found in Northern Europe, Northern Canada, chiefly among the Chippewa, Chesapeake, Pequots, Massapequas, which I suggest are the ancient Picts.
These bog burial methods are found in English bogs. Welch-speaking tribes of North Carolina have been found. Astonishing find!
They will do it again today if we keep feeding them. I'm not saying we shouldn't feed Africa but they are multiplying so quickly, it seems like an impossible problem.

Doff your hats to them but don't buy gold bars unless you have sawed through the bar and seen the lead.
The geoglyph with the three dots in the middle and the three projections extending upwards looks a lot like the hand ogee symbol used in the Southeastern Ceremonial Culture, or Southeastern "Death Cult" of the prehistoric Mississippian peoples. It represented a constellation in the sky overlapping with Orion from European astrology. The three dots represent Orion's Belt.

Why did they stop the singing ?????
Wish there was a TV show or movie about these ancient celts. A quality one, like to the Poldark standard.
