Footprints of Vanished Races

Footprints of Vanished Races
by A. J. Conant 1879

Notwithstanding all this labor and study, the great questions continually repeated, which were suggested when our antiquities were first noticed, still remain unanswered; namely: Who were the authors of these works? What was their origin, and what were the causes of their disappearance? Were they the red men found in possession of the continent at the time of its discovery? I am not aware that the opinion that the red men were the authors of the most extensive works, though maintained by some scholars of high repute, is held by any who have given them personal and thorough examination. The earlier travellers who stumbled upon them in the wilderness, or on the prairie, express their astonishment at their magnitude and the skill displayed in their erection. Captain Carver, in the account of his travels in the years 1766-'7-'8, describes what he was convinced was a military work, which he accidentally discovered upon the bank of Lake Pepin. This was long before it was known that America had any antiquities. Concerning it he says that "its form was somewhat circular, and its flanks reached the river. Though much defaced by time, every angle was distinguishable, and appeared as regular and fashioned with as much military skill as if planned by Vauban himself." Again: "I was able to draw certain conclusions of its great antiquity." "How a work of this kind could exist in a country that has hitherto been the seat of war to untutored Indians alone, whose whole stock of military knowledge has only, till within two centuries, amounted to drawing the bow, and whose only breastwork, even at present, is the thicket, I know not."

The Lenape Stone or The Indian and the Mammoth

The Lenape Stone or The Indian and the Mammoth,
by H.C. Mercer, 1885

In the spring of 1872, eight years after the discovery of the famous mammoth carving in the cave of La Madleine, Perigord, France, Barnard Hansell, a young farmer, while ploughing on his father's farm, four miles and a half east of Doylestown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, saw, to use his own words, a "queer stone." By wetting his thumb and rubbing it he could see strange lines and a carving representing an animal like an elephant, but without troubling his boyish head much about it, he carried it several days in his pocket, and finally locked it up in his chest until the spring of 1881 when it was purchased and eventually viewed by Bucks County Historian Captain J.S. Bailey, who first called serious attention to this find. Softcover, illustrated, 95 pgs.

The Problem of the Ohio Mounds

The Problem of the Ohio Mounds,
by Cyrus Thomas 1889

Cyrus Thomas published this short work to establish his uncertainty about who the Mound Builders were; however, he decides to identifly them with, at least in part, the Five Civilized Nations of the Cherokee. Thomas is puzzled by the Eastern Hemisphere artifacts that continue to be discovered in undisturbed layers deep within the mounds themselves. So, he continues to question the identity of the builders of the mounds. These non-conforming artifacts have been gathered by Thomas, which he admits to having, yet they have never been shown or identified in the museums of today. Where is the unusual artifact collection of which Cyrus Thomas speaks? Currently, we do not know. This is a must-have book for all mound builder investigators. Softcover, illustrated, 54 pgs.
