Getting on the Grid

The Geographical and Planetary Grid System of Anomaly Hunting, Identification, and Corroboration

The point of putting these here being their pertainence to matters of possible extraterrestial artifacts, and possible key locations on the World Grid, I had intended to include a few of the most photogenic and compelling sites... indeed, there is apparently still an incredible shortage of earthworks images on the Internet... I have opted instead for as many texts as possible, and not discarded those most valuable humble pages of local Historical Societies and the like, that give mention of mounds that no longer exist, whose very existance seems to be rapidly heading for obscurity. Indeed, those few sites that describe the destruction of Native American sites by thoughless farming describe what it both alarming, and tragic.

After some consideration, the rationale for including minor sites entails the fact that we have as yet no definite framework that qualifies the importance of the sites according to their size. It's true that the sites that really capture our attention, and make it clear to us the amazing and still unexplained connectedness between ancient peoples the world over, and yet the sort of information we are seeking could as easily be found in a petroglyph two inches high.

Additionally, the more the information of the exact sites of the ancient mounds becomes lost, the harder it becomes to corroborate their significance in general, or to make certain statistical comments about their possible nature.

Without certain reference works in my immediate possession, such as Carl P. Munck's cumulative materials, I cannot say for certain whether these subjects have all been covered by the prominent researchers working in this area of the global grid, and extraterrestial connections... I do know that immediately observations occured to me which I have yet to encounter in the materials at hand, and they may be important ones.

The below set of listings is still very much only a partial one, and some links to pages provide many more names of mound sites for which individual searches by name have yet to be done. Each time a specific site name is fed into a search engine, still more general pages are produced that are not located by the more generic search terms, as seems to be the case with many geographical matters, including those extraterrestial.

Later in the development of this page, notes specifying the number of images at each site if any, and probably other notations making this site better suited as a tool rather than a starting-off point, will be added... and the site is intended to grow as more information becomes available, so if you know of any omissions, I will be most happy to have them brought to my attention, with my thanks.

The Ancient Mounds and Earthworks of North American

Even while we try to approach this question from a purely geographical point of view, there are amazing things to be found. At left, is a reconstruction of the Cahokia site; those who have been closely studying possible ruins in images of the moon and other planets, particularly Mars, should at once recognize both the similarity between the style of this enclosure, and the style of countless open enclosures that seem to appear in space image data... but perhaps it will also be recognized that the very shape of the major enclosure of Cahokia is remarkably like the fundamental morphology of the vast majority of major face-shapes that have been located in extraterrestial images!

We will not attempt a "Von Danikkenism" to suggest that this is "proof" that native peoples were visited and enriched by "extraterrestial" peoples, even if that may be exactly what the native legends might tell us about the founding of Cahokia by a "being from the sun" who came dispensing civilization and ethics, but more probably we see here not only a strong connection between an already developed and advanced native North Americans and other ancient, Mars-related cultures, but a connection that suggests that the native peoples of Cahokia were not exempt from the remarkable ancient knowledge that connects a possible former civilization on Mars with the civilizations of earth.

At right, is an aerial view of an effigy mound in Georgia, attributed to (the?) Mississippian Indians, that can be found on pg. 106 of Reader's Digest's "Earths Mysterious Places", if it cannot be located elsewhere with adequate ease.

Here, the fundamental morphology of the Face on Mars at Cydonia is even more compelling... almost virtually undeniable! It is also a curious distortion of the "eagle" it is purported to be. Perhaps we should go with any inklings that suggest to us that this is in part intended to represent a turtle, giving us a typically Martian hybrid creature with "flies and has a strong shell"- a reference to a spacecraft, interwoven with a clear symbol of where such a spacecraft might have been coming or going from? The idea may take some getting used to, but ridicule will not alter whatever the truth here may be.

I will endeavor to provide a better image with a image format suitable for image enhancement soon; even the initial slight adjustments I used to try to produce a more colorful picture made some remarkable implications that detectable remnants of not only a the outline Cydonia-face shape, but of a face entire just where we expect it to be, may be present here!
