Slo Mo Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 the land owner was a jerk 8) I was thinking the same thing. Wonder if he/she knows something that they don't want out there. I also wonder if those two hunters will lose hunting privileges on that property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfan Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It's a bit of a jolt to be reminded that the history of our little bit of the world goes back thousands of years, and how little we know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up on that in the beginning of the show.... oh well its good they figured it out, it definitely didnt line up with the irish calander ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfan Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I've heard about some ancient burial mounds discovered near Sabula....Can anyone add to that story? Was that determined to be pre-Native American era? I think the late Sam King, from Penn State DuBois Campus, and noted local historian, did some research on them....

Petee Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm not sure they were burial mounds, more like long term campsites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petee Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 The owner probably was thinking about the insurance liability and possible legal repercussions of having an "official" inspection of the site. Allowing hunters could easily be covered, but the rest of it could be a nightmare for the landowner. This was a fabulous educational tool. Thank you for posting it.

Tricia Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 That was fantastic. Very informative and in PA too. Thank you so much. I don't think I would have gone inside...it looked like a bear cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignatius Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I had a complete set of Sam King maps, but gave them away to a friend. They are available at the Clearfield County Historical Society (don't know if our local society has them). They're reprints and show all kind of good stuff, like the cave. We have an original set at our camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfan Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 To think that these people, maybe Celts, Vikings,or Druids from the same era as the Stonhenge builders were in our area, and knew so much about the natural world, is a startling idea....It's easier to imagine the Aztec's, ancient Egyptians, and other enlightened civilizations, when they were not in our own neighborhood, or....maybe they were..hmmmmm?

Ignatius Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I thought I saw some Cro-magnons at the Post the other night. But then again, that was after being there for 4 or 5 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking more along the lines of the owner being worried it would be labeled a historic site. I remember the story I read here a while back about the Reynoldsville stone. It was believed to be a tombstone of a Carthaginian from 100 to 300 AD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
