The thing about the Great Serpent Mound in Ohio is that it’s our version of Stonehenge, and that it has fallen into a state of ridiculous disrepair, and it shouldn’t be. When you look at the great historic sites around the world, like the Pyramids, Göbekli Tepe, and Stonehenge, they all have significant commitments to tourism dollars that inspire people to visit, instead of trying to frustrate them from doing so. I have talked about it before. I like what they did to Stonehenge to make it a positive visitor experience, and at least that level of investment should be applied to the Great Serpent Mound in Ohio because, in many ways, it’s more mysterious. It may not be as technical in its construction, but the mathematical logic that went into the Great Serpent Mound, just an hour or so east of Cincinnati, is equally impressive. Given what we do know about it, I would say that Serpent Mound is one of the most mysterious sites in the world, and Ohio should be showing it off a lot more than they do. I recently made it part of a grand paranormal tour that I took with my family, and we made a point to stop by and see it. It was good to see again, I’ve seen it a lot over the years. But each time it has fallen into disrepair more and more, instead of anybody giving it a fresh coat of paint and advancing it. The Great Serpent Mound has recently received much attention because of Graham Hancock’s Ancient Apocalypse show on Netflix, which deserves a lot of respect. Graham also discusses the site in the opening chapters of his popular and well-researched book, Before America. I read it and think that Graham is onto something about ancient cultures in North America, way before dates proposed by modern archaeology. And sadly, they have dug in on their previous assumptions because they don’t want to admit that what they put forth regarding the history of Serpent Mound was lazy and needed significant updates.

There is a lot of mystery going on these days with archeoastronomy that dates Serpent Mound to the Draco constellation between 3000 and 5000 BC, similar to what we see with the Great Boar at Fortified Hill just outside of Hamilton, Ohio. Or Fort Hill, just to the north of Serpent Mound. As well as the many other ancient sites built all over Ohio. None have survived as well as Serpent Mound, but they are much more complicated than we have assumed of Native American cultures. We are looking at the remains of a very ancient and sophisticated culture and it is more likely that the Adena and Hopewell Indians lived in these locations more as squatters than as architects, following a well-known Vico Cycle that is inconvenient to historic knowledge that has already broadcast to the world a lazy explanation that is now very much refuted. Ross Hamilton has done a lot of good work at Serpent Mound that offers much older dates and sophistication for the building and use of the mound complex, and the archaeology community has only dug in deeper, almost wishing the site would just go away so they could stop answering questions. There is now a policy that drones can’t be flown over the site because the caretakers of Serpent Mound don’t want their complex to be shown all over the world, as it has been, so they are frustrating efforts to do research in the area rather than embracing a continued understanding. I understand why, but it’s not a good reason.

My interest in these kinds of things is the next level of political discussion for me, which is the root cause behind many of the troubles in our world. I am personally tired of the lazy approach to everything that has permeated all our institutions, this little shell game where it is said, “there is no evidence to support wild accusations,” but at the same time being too lazy to look for the evidence because you are afraid of what you’ll find. To call such an approach a massive conspiracy is an understatement. I do not hate archaeologists by any stretch of the imagination. It takes a lot of hard work to dig in the dirt, discover things long buried, and figure out what they mean. Serpent Mound is well known to have had reports of giant skeletons of people seven to eight feet tall coming out of the mounds at that site, and like the other sites I have pointed out, the reaction to this news has been to dig less. They excavated at the site when I was a kid to understand it better. But over the years, like the Miamisburg Mound they have stopped looking for evidence so that they could then say that any proposal of giants in those burial mounds is not proof because they don’t want to find it and what they have discovered is shoved into the corners of museums and private collections, not released to the public for all kinds of political reasons. If these are wild theories, well then, let’s prove it. Let’s dig and learn the truth. However, keeping away from the questions is not a good strategy.
I remember in 2003 when a crop circle of great sophistication was made into a soybean field across the street from the Serpent Mound complex. It was far too complicated to be a hoax by some deranged teenage kids, and it was very similar to the kind of designs that are common outside of Stonehenge in England, which has many of the same types of sites there as well. We are looking at a global culture of Mound Builders who were not just surviving hunters and gatherers. I think that the growing understanding points to the remnants of the Atlantean culture that had migrants fleeing the well-known island that was overcome by water somewhere off the coast of Britain and north of the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. Former island dwellers dedicated to the God Poseidon, who ruled Atlantis, took with them their knowledge of astronomy and duplicated it all over the earth, as well as many of the ancient sites we talk about today. A lot was going on from the time of Göbekli Tepe to the proposed construction dates of the Great Serpent Mound, or the Great Pyramids and archaeologists, being a young science, got it wrong from the start and its time to revise our previous assumptions with the many new facts that have been discovered over recent years. And why Poseidon? Well, he had an attraction to Medusa and her hair of snakes, which makes a lot more sense for the snake worship of the constellation Draco than the explanations we have received so far. And while that may sound wild and unbelievable, it makes more sense than saying that a bunch of hunters and gatherers had all this advanced mathematics and built all these mounds, but they struggled to catch a rabbit for food. We need a lot more research and understanding, and all that starts with the preservation of that historic site with fresh funding, and I would even propose a tourist model to pay for it, similar to what they do at Stonehenge under the care of English Heritage. We should be making Serpent Mound a big part of our state identity, because people worldwide fly to Ohio to visit Serpent Mound. We need to treat it with that level of care because it is incredibly unique and requires much more research and debate.





I’m prepared to stake my claim with what I think is significant evidence, that a culture, like Atlantis, and even cultures older than that but have been lost because there wasn’t a Plato to record it in a way that survived, populated the entire world and that they were very tall people obsessed with worship of planets and their power, which still exists to this day in cults of magic and occult astrology attached to many secret societies who wish to rule mankind from the shadows gaining control of our political, educational, and financial institutions so they could set policies that would maintain their concealment. And from 9000 BC to around 3000 AD, they ruled the world until a rebellion of ideas came along and toppled their empire, for which Yahweh played his part. I propose that Serpent Mound is the remains of this very ancient cult that was preserved and restored by many generations of inhabitants, of which the Adena and Hopewell Indians did just as Egyptian society did and that was to build their empires around the structures that were already there for many thousands of years. Not much remains of this ancient culture because time tends to wipe them all out if something is over 3000 years old. But Göbekli Tepi and other sites around the world dating back to 10,000 years ago show that there were already very advanced cultures on Earth with a high understanding of mathematics. And Ohio has a big piece of that puzzle, which should be preserved. As I explained to my kids on this trip, there should be nice, paved trails, a nice restaurant, and an admission price to raise money for the preservation at the Serpent Mound complex. But this whole native American sacred site stuff needs to go. Science needs more evidence and a bigger picture to consider in the schemes of the universe as captured in sites like the Great Serpent Mound. And I dare everyone who snickers at this claim to prove me wrong. Because I don’t think they can.
