Not a tree was left standing. Every house, barn, business, church and school that remained was demolished or burned to the ground. At night fires glowed eerily throughout the smoke-filled valley. During the day bulldozers finished off whatever stone walls, chimneys and smoldering timbers remained. Trucks hauled away human remains disinterred from cemeteries and family graveyards. A century afte...

Taking Their Water for Our City: Archaeology of New York City’s Watershed Communities

Curious where one could find a link to the map of sites you share in your vid? thank you!!!
Never. Ind. tuxedo, New York. Sterling forest state park
Were those walls in Monroe New York? Or Southfields New York? Very confusing.
Theres lots of sites in British Isles and Europe with similar construction so saying Indians built doesn't make alot of sense. Maybe Mayan or Phoenicians or Celts. Or a prehistoric culture of the distant past
thank you so much for sparking my interest in these structures - simply amazing analyses. I do hope to visit at least one!
Fascinating subject. Obviously a lot of time and effort was put into the building of these monuments. Hopefully one day we will understand what the ancient people were trying to tell us or at least why it was so important at that time. Keep up the good work.😊
You are terribly erroneous when referring to a suspended boulder in Stephentown,Ny. (23:45) Please remove this reference from your horribly inaccurate research.
It truly is disgraceful how these ancient sites have been destroyed and ignored. There is so much to see all over North America.
Grew up in Stone laden geography , lots of stone walls . Assumed Colonist farm clearing , not so sure about that , had to have been started much earlier . beautiful .
How do we know what the Mississippian thought?
We Americans sadly are shortsighted idiots, and we have fits when people in the middle east blow up ancient statues with guns. It makes me wonder about our self- examination abilities.
I feel your anger but the " sense " of it is across the board on many avenues . It feels like many have lost the sense of appreciation and understanding of what we ALL have. The handing down of ideas have ceased for a few generations and this is what we get. Thanks for your ideas and share. It is what it it is and that is to say that no one should say anything , it is to say it is very very hard to change. :O) Funny too !
Indians were not anywhere near as creative as you’d have us believe
Well done! Such a truly fascinating field of study - Archeoastronomy and Sacred Geometry. Sure wish they had these subjects at uni when I was there in the early 80s because we were on our own back then and thus considered heretics. Academia had already veered away from teaching us how to think into their present curriculum of what to think. Thankfully, the Internet is our new Library if Alexandria. Thanks again for your erudite presentation.
The chamber in 37:40 would look like an eye (of a rattlesnake?) when the chamber is illuminated. And the hillock its built on looks like the snake's head. I wonder if the rest of the landscape has features that look like a snake body. The next chamber makes me think of a dragon's eye, and it has a pointed rock that shades into the "iris" of that eye. Have you found or are you aware of chambers with snake art carved on them or near them?
New England Antiquities Research Association (NEARA) does a lot of research like this in the New England states.
The white man built it all
The Great Norumbega River Valley.
I gotta go looking for fossils an tusks, i do know where there is fossils of sea shells up on mountians in willowemoc
,wish audio was better. Interesting what I could hear. TY for your facts.
This is so fantastic! There aren't enough vids specifically covering Hudson Valley Glacial history! This one is awesome as are GeoBeck's.
Thank you for your time and all this information.
The lack of vitamin D can cause the depression the Belgica crew experienced as well.
My grandma Nancy Bowd grew up in Cannonsville and her family owned a dairy farm. When everything was taken away from them I cant imagine how devastated they were. I believe they were able to move one of the homes to a different area. I've been told my great grandparents chimney still stands under the water. I've visited a few times and seen the old road that goes right into the water. I hope more people learn about this story. I would've loved to visit the farm and homes of my loved ones if they weren't destroyed.
A very sad tribute to a lost community. My grandfather owned a farm and sawmill in Cannonsville and a sawmill in Deposit, on lands where the Deposit Central School stands now. He lost two properties via eminent domain. His third sawmill still stands . . .under the ownership of Schaeffer's in Stilesville, NY. Thank you, Roger Luther, for your efforts in producing this video.
Great video, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Government and conventional archaeology… destroying evidence and concealing facts for 200 years. It should be on a T-shirt I swear. So much damage and destruction has been done to the early history of this land due to the foolish and misguided idea of manifest destiny. I very very seldom ever drop the R word (rascism) but in this case it’s very appropriate. I have encountered the same exact attitude In the state where I live. I can tell you that in the south east, I’ve run into obstacles from the county , state and even local archaeologists who have pretty much shut me down. They were very helpful at first. Not anymore. if you start talking about anything at all which they don’t agree with or like or it doesn’t go along with the work that they have already done (published or hung their reputation upon) you’re not going to get anywhere. They shut their ears, shut the door, shut the window, shut you down, and it is Game over. especially if they are not going to get paid for it, or if someone else is willing to pay them more to keep quiet and turn a blind eye to it. I realize that is a loaded statement, but it happens to be true. Money talks. Everybody knows that. I think it might interest you to know that there are also stone structures in the south eastern states. We know that they have them in Kentucky and Tennessee but also in Georgia, and North Carolina. I haven’t found any in South Carolina or Alabama yet, but we will see. it doesn’t mean they are not there. There are places that are close to other existing sites which have the remains of stone structures, which have fallen , so they are easily mistaken for just piles of rocks or farmers clearing an area which is foolish because why would you clear a hill, top or mountain slope? Thanks to the work of many people, including Mary Gage, which I have read and researched, I recently became aware that I have located a solstice marking site. Just a handful of boulders sitting in the middle of the woods, near a confluence of a large creek, and a river. If you walked past it without knowing what you were looking for, you would totally miss it. The boulders do stand out a bit though, because there are very few of these located in the wooded areas nearby. If you try to look anything about alignment sites or anything prior to Mississippian on the Internet, you will find absolutely nothing available to the public for my state or area. I already know that people have done research on places that date back to the Woodland culture, but they won’t release any of the information and they have a very strict policy about keeping it out of public view. I understand, trying to preserve sites and keep looters away, but I don’t understand, keeping it away from other researchers, who might have something valuable to contribute.
Fantastic presentation
20:20 similar to the moon, planets also have multi-year extremes along the horizon; these two longer walls likely mark a planetary cycle, for example Venus, the brightest planet…
First off that I already got a problem with this video new Netherland did not start at 1624 Started centuries before that seems to me a lot of you people are like getting your history wrong Do not listen to videos like this if you do your actual research you Netherland did not start in 1624 Started way before that and new Netherland was not New York it was Albany New York all the way down to Delaware
Your theories are interesting but highly questionable.. its important to put aside your own bias when investigating anything.. remember, science is used to interpret the world around us- not to dictate what we believe happened... Matt Rizzo

The bark of the walnut tree or the actual hulls of the walnut itself?
What a Lame Utube
Where is info on actual Hudson Valley? Just I. The last two minutes. Very disappointing.
I think it was the ancestors of the Native American people who built them. They are much older than they are. Native Americans say the mounds were already here and they didn't build them. They are 2000 years old. ....Lost tribes of Israel built them
Please, has a native American mentioned the tribes of Isreal? Because I believe that.
These appear to be post duluvian and are all over the world as you said!
Sam's point. Another propped stone and megalithic structures...ellenville ny
Thank you for this
The picture of the Tappan Zee just north of the bridge that used to bear its name.
Megalithic Age Sea Peoples were mobile and advanced in abstract steller mathematics, navigation, night sky knowledge most on land didn't know of & had little use for. Sea people existed the world over were not restricted to confines of claimed land or geopolitics, peoples wars over regions, especiially when resources became scarce, back when the earliest advent of agriculture became necessary by many cultures to feed all the people to prevent famine & war, The Sea people could leave & look for greener pastures . The Ocean has seasons & Sea people spent time on the land likely looking for that special place on land, with the right wood to build their craft, the next New World, that paradise with fewer people they could call their own. They knew it existed but by 12k-9k bce/ the sea people knew the earth was round and how to build the craft for getting around it, and knew there were populations of people living on all contenients, Polynesians, Asians,.South Americans, Arab.Indian & Africans all had a very small population of Sea Faring people. The knowledge of boatbuilding as was the knowledge of navigation at sea, other lands around the world and passages to get there, all was kept close for at least a couple thousand years before early"civilization and advent of armies & warfare.
P.s orions belt is front view of property I grew oil n again a very sacred feeling. I'd love for you too share as well us all learn more. As I am saddened it shall be ruined. Especially with intent the more it's known. I need to speak w her and she's local enough I gotta try
I've seen Linda Zimmerman before at a ufo meeting many years ago. If we sat and even toured more of NY Hudson Valley and if can find what has been taken. Or well. Ill say I have pics as well as many ways to show natives and tesla worked with similar energies Catskills Hudson valley. Ships pics faces beings and the stone wall sacredness waterfall facing north but barred off and now others say we can even go there.
