Nick’s Pic Of The Day
Ufologists on their day off.
Day three…
When not doing things of a ufological nature, here’s somewhere I like to go to hang out: the Avebury Stones, Wiltshire, England. A truly magical and mystical area, I recommend it to anyone who wants to get in touch with England’s rich, weird history. Go down there in the summer (this shot was taken by me in August 2006) and chances are you’ll see a good selection of Crop Circles in the area too.

Nick,
Were you aware that some stone have been found in the US, presumably made by Native Americans? Somewhere in my library I’ve got a book that was written about dowsing, and the author was performing what he called “map dowsing”, i.e., not actually walking the land but using his dowsing device over a map of the territory. One of the tests he did (there were several) was to locate Native American sites of archaeological interest, then describe them before actually going to the site to confirm its existence. He dowsed a stone circle and was able to confirm that it was there upon visiting the site. It’s been awhile since I read the account, but as I recall, the site was completely unknown to archaeologists at the time of its discovery. I’ll have to hunt up the reference and pass it along.
There is another area in Utah that has only recently come to light. It’s privately owned land and the owner kept it a secret for many years so that it wouldn’t be trashed by amateur treasure hunters. I don’t recall off hand why he finally divulged its existence, but I believe he has allowed a few genuine professionals in to examine the site on condition that they not disclose its location. I believe it dates to pre-Columbian times, approximately 1000 years old or some such thing. I couldn’t swear to it but I seem to recall there being some kind of stone circle or circles at this site as well. I’ll see if I can find the paper I read regarding it.

Raven:
I wasn’t aware of those specific cases but certainly stone circles/ancient Native American Indian mounds etc., do feature prominently in various mysteries.
Linda Godfrey’s book “Hunting the American Werewolf” for example digs into this angle, and there are numerous cases from the UK where both UFOs and cryptozoological mysteries have been seen in the vicinity of ancient sites.
Stonehenge is a classic example of where, in the last 12 years, there have been a number of sightings of so-called “Flying Triangles.”
Even Loch Ness (home of the monster, and Aleister Crowley) has its own “Henge” too - albeit submerged.
