Very well done. I have found several artifacts in NW WI. Some are spear points that could only have been made for megafauna. Thanks again for the film. Some of my points could have come from here!
Hello! Thank you for your interest in Silver Mounds. The site is actually open for tours through Driftless Pathways, LLC at www.driftlesspathways.com. The reason for very limited access is to preserve the site. The best time to visit is in the spring. The Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin also partners with Driftless Pathways for our statewide Field Trip program. www.WisConservation.org/field-trips. :)
It use to belong to my dad many yrs ago gary Paar plus around 80 acres then my grandmother Dorothea shoemaker aka geske then a couple bought it from them when they sold it and the geske farm remained on the land next to the koa alot of good memories there growing up i member going to the caves when u was younger looking at the drawings before they had signs and fences up lol
The beginning of the video was decent. You 2 are reaching when it comes to the drawings and glyphs. The red drawings were probably their form of marking years.. Like Roman Numerals. Aboriginal people were a people that explained history by drawing. And if I gave my 4 year old niece some red paint and told her to draw a bird on a rock..? She would do better than that. And the explanation of the turkey track was far-fetched. Stick to giving factual statements and leave the interpretations to the viewers.
Keep these tours of Wisco archeological sites coming. Great, thanks!
People were writing to the future.
Nice video.
Wow! Fascinating to learn of this historical place. Thank you!
