Hi Mike -
I hope I am not spoiling anyone's source here, but
Your go-to guy for Serpent Mound geological specimens is Tom Johnson of the House of Phacops.
He can also provide local fossils.
IMO, there is a whole lot of BS that is spouted as regards the ceremonial complex there.
That said, the EMF there at the impact epicenter is high enough to disorient migrating birds,
and interfere with electronic circuits, including those of the human brain.
I hope to put my and my colleague Fletcher Wilson ( one of Ohio's leading naked eye astronomers)
pamphlet into e-book from someday.
E.P.

Hi EP and
List,
I have been fascinated lately with the folklore
surrounding the Serpent Mound crater. My interest was
triggered by receiving a batch of Serpent Mound breccia
chunks which I cut and sold. (still have some
available).
I have never visited the site, but if I ever
find myself in that neck of the woods, I will certainly pay
a visit. Hope to see you there one day. :)
Best regards,
MikeG

Hi all
-
For the last several years, I have been speaking at Serpent
Mound:
http://ancientearthworksproject.org/1/post/2014/07/new-radiocarbon-dates-suggest-serpent-mound-is-more-than-2000-years-old.html
Originally and abysmally, this structure was dated by Brad
Lepper to the 1066 CE appearance of Halley's Comet.
It appears clear from the structure itself that it was meant
to reflect the constellation Draco,
although Its builders the Andaste were genocidally
exterminated
before any detailed record was made of their astronomy.
While the weather here in Ohio usually prevents viewing the
Draconids,
it appears they would be visible a month or a month and a
half earlier at the time this site was first cleared,
sometime after 1,000 BCE or so.
Note especially the later construction ca 360 BCE.
We currently have no idea what triggered that.
Draco's radiant's location has implications as far
as Gobekli Tepe's alignments.
Has the Earth been hit by trwo cometary streams in the last
15,000 years, both Giacbinii Zinner and Encke?
In other words, precisely how bad is the cometary impact
hazard?
Has the recent rate of cometary injection been high, or is
this normal?
E.P.
