My grandparents lived here and my mother & sibling were born there. Grandfather passed away there and he worked in the mines. The family then moved to New Mexico where apparently land grants were give to people to move to New Mexico. It was a hard life and my mother attended Mexican parochial school and was taught classes by nuns from Spain - wonder if the family name is in Shafter records. Now I know how my Mom knew about the Texas Rangers - maybe will visit there one day.

Here's a thought, these aren't simply mounds but earthen pyramids. Secondly, our European ancestors were responsible for the destruction of approximately 90% of the total mounds that once existed.

yes the supposed "Viking" runestones is near the site. there is no evidence the Vikings ever made it to the interior of north America. however there is lots of evidence that Swedish immigrants did carve runes throughout north America in the mid 19th century.

Bow and arrow use is as old as our civilizations. . . up to 10k years at least. They are accounted for in written text and older, pictographs painted on rock walls.
@ChasingHistory

not in the western hemisphere...... this is not a documentary on Europe or Asia .... this is a documentary on prehistoric north America.... where the consensus is the bow and arrow was developed from 2,000 to 3,000 years ago.

@@ChasingHistory There have been many small (likely arrowhead) points found from archaic-period sites in NA. I've never understood that "consensus" (or several others). . . . I wouldn't agree to it being "common sense archeology". Try using an atlatl and long spear/dart in the woodlands and heavy brush. . . a compact bow needing no more space than one's partially extended arm (and being very quiet and stealth, allowing you to stalk and squat) is much more effective. About 10k years of evidence in bow use in Africa, Europe, Asia would further support. . . I mean, those are theareas from whence they migrated, supposedly. That point you found seems reasonable size for a smaller atlatl dart. . .but, it could potentially be an arrowhead too. Keep searching, and thanks for the content.
