In this video, I went some friends to investigate an ancient Native American mound and we see rock piles lined up in the shape of a U facing southeast. The mound is 660 feet elevation above sea level and this is the first time I filmed a burial mound. The first half of the video I will narrate because of the strong gusty winds blowing making it hard to hear and the other half is normal with no narration.

These rock do not look like they were place in any pattern. Unless you have evidence otherwise it could be that original farmers used horses or oxen to tow field rock to the least usable part of their land. High ground has less soil moisture and crops are more likely to blow down; so those big rocks went there. Total speculation on my part, but the fact the rocks are not in a pattern makes me wonder. Nice video!

In Western ky alot backroads have a mound on the corner at stop signs and some have a house or a cemetary on it.. The indians built the roads we still use today and there are far more earthworks than anyone could ever imagine. Alot of the ditches in the woods are actually earthworks that have been built up on both sides and im thinking they pitched rocks in these ditches and small creekbeds like we do coins at a fountain. Tons and tons of effigy rocks are laying in these ditches but people just assume they are weathered rocks. Most of the mounds and earthworks were built as designs and made there homes terrotory easier to travel on.

Most of the ones I know that are in the western Kentucky are the shell midden mounds on the Green River, Backusburg Mounds in Calloway County, and the Wickliffe Mounds also. The western Kentucky is really close to the Mississippi River which has been a huge Native territory for over thousands of years.

@@kentuckyuncharted2674 The shell middens and the actual burial mounds are all documented mounds. I have learned that all of the old roads sides have been earthworked. Closer to rivers and big creeks you will notice alot of houses built on mounds. The reason is that Europeans used them for cabins and homes because it was already prepared. Over the years rebuilding has occured and now people do not realize its mounds and earthworks. I can clearly see the mound edges but most people never even think about it so they dont know. I think the government at some point in history tried to make that information disappear so that real estate wouldnt look like a graveyard

Probably just unknown to you.. Most “points of interest” are mapped and documented with USGS, using GPS coordinates

Fortunately the "federal elites" (USGS, et al,) aren't quite as "omniscient", omnipotent" and "omnipresent" as they would have us think... Yes: "They are free of the burdens others carry; they are not afflicted like other men. "Therefore pride is their necklace; a garment of violence covers them. "From their prosperity proceeds iniquity; the imaginations of their hearts run wild. "They mock and speak with malice; with arrogance they threaten oppression. "They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongues strut across the earth." ...But "Surely You set them on slick ground; You cast them down into ruin. "How suddenly they are laid waste, completely swept away by terrors! "Like one waking from a dream, so You, O Lord, awaken and despise their form." Their abusive rule will pass away, and they will perish from "God's Green Earth" as the worthless thieves and trespassers they are...

That's not true. My whole property it's full of old Indian mounds. It's literally all Indian mounds with a bayou that used to be part of a river system until they built the reservoir. I've found so much stuff and called everyone I could think of. Nobody cares lol. So I just keep it all.

How do you know it’s an Indian barrel mound? So, far haven’t seen anything that relates to Indians but rocks. Gonna have to dig to confirm this. Good luck

I’ve read about it in a book called Prehistoric Men of Kentucky and one part mentions Indian graves are made of rock piles or cairns.

@@kentuckyuncharted2674 you might want to look around the area surrounding the rocks. Look around for chirp pieces of rock and anything potentially related to the natives working tools and of course arrowheads. This will give you a better understanding of this site. Good luck

How do you know that they were native "Americans"? People born in the Americas, during certain years? American "Indians" weren't legally US citizens until 1924, if that's who you meant. 😖😋 Nice video. 👍🏽
