Earth Ancients

America's incredible mound-building cultures erected the first mounds over 6500 years ago. It is believed that over 1 million mounds once existed, but today, perhaps only 100,000 remain. The ancient mounds and enormous earthworks associated with them are one of the most unappreciated archaeological treasures in the world. America has the largest and most complex formations of geometric earthworks in the world and the largest mound (near St. Louis) has a base larger than the Great Pyramid. This comprehensive text is a guidebook to mounds in 41 states and contains over 1100 site descriptions, many of which are large mound complexes with museums. The sites are arranged alphabetically by state and include Archaic, Adena, Hopewell, and Mississippian sites. It is the most comprehensive guide to America's mounds and earthworks in existence.The book includes nearly 900 photos, maps, & illustrations and has 80 site reconstructions made by archaeological illustrators. Many rare photos of stone chambers and artifacts found in excavated mounds are included. An extensive index of 2300 entries listed by state contains all site and mound names along with locations. The book is a large hardcover (8.75 x 11.25) with green and red cloth with gold foil stamping (no paper jacket). This is a revised, updated, and enhanced version of the first edition.Dr. Gregory Little is part Seneca. He has a Master's Degree in Experimental Psychology and a Doctorate in Counseling & Educational Psychology from Memphis State University (now the University of Memphis). He has been featured in documentaries on History, National Geographic, The Learning Channel, MSNBC, and other networks.Order the book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Illustrated-Encyclopedia-Native-American-Earthworks/dp/0940829584/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1536380790&sr=1-3&refinements=p_27%3AGregory+L.+LittleBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

After graduating from the Eastman School of Music, Jim Willis became a high school band and orchestra teacher during the week, a symphony trombonist on the weekends, a jazz musician at night and a choral conductor on Sunday mornings.  The author of nine books on religion and spirituality, he has been an ordained minister for over forty years while working part-time as a woodworker and handyman, the host of his own drive-time radio show, an arts council director and adjunct college professor in the fields of World Religions and Instrumental Music.  His teaching career produced both the comprehensive one-volume encyclopedia of religion, The Religion Book: Places, Prophets, Saints and Seers, and Armageddon Now: The End of the World A to Z, written with his wife, Barbara. Concern for spiritual growth in contemporary society prompted his book Faith, Trust & Belief: A Trilogy of the Spirit, while his love for long-distance bicycling led him to make several cross-country bike trips and inspired both his first book, Journey Home: The Inner Life of a Long Distance Bicycle Rider and its sequel, Snapshots and Visions: A View from the Now.  Savannah: A Bicycle Journey Through Time and Space continued that tradition.  Upon retirement he moved to the woods, determined to confront the essential spirituality that has inspired humankind since the very beginnings of time.  The result of this quest is chronicled in his books, The Dragon Awakes: Rediscovering Earth Energy in the Age Of Science, and Ancient Gods: Lost Histories, Hidden Truths and the Conspiracy of Silence. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

David Lonebear Sanipass is the last remaining Sagen, or Spiritual Leader, of the Mi’kmaq Nation. He is a spiritual scientist, engineer, storyteller, flute and basket maker. The Mi’kmaq (pronounced mi-gah-mah) are an indigenous people presently located in Maine and Canada, though originally they populated areas from Boston, Massachusetts northward into Canada.David’s birth was prophesied by elders over 300 years before his birth. He was trained extensively from birth by over 600 elders from around the world for the first 26 years of his life on the side of Lonebear mountain. This included what are referred to as the “star teachings” as well as advanced mathematics, science, chemistry, biology, physics and engineering. He was asked to by his elders to share these teachings to the non-natives for the first time ever.It was this deep initiation into traditional spiritual practice and knowledge that shaped David and informs him now. As Sagen he is the ‘translator of Spirit. He was raised with the traditional Mi’kmaq belief that humans are in relationship with spirit and can be guided by Spirit. The relationship of human, spirit, Mother Earth and the Creator are primary. The human is considered a powerful energy source.Spirit, as understood by David’s tradition, exists in physical dimension but not in the electromagnetic spectrum of light that we see, nor on an auditory scale we can hear. David has vast experience of being open and available to this level of creation and shares from this depth.David is clear it is time to share this traditional wisdom. Not to give it away. Not to have it taken, but to share in order to guide our selves, our community, and our world toward spiritual advancement necessary to step into our roles as humans in a changing universe. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

R. Ken Johnston, Sr, was one of 4 Civilian Astronaut Consultant Pilots from the Apollo Moon Program, is a retired aerospace engineer, former active duty US Marine, and “NASA Whistle Blower.” He refused to strictly follow orders and destroy a nearly-complete collection of 8 x 10 glossy photo-prints from the Apollo program. These photos are not available from NASA at this time and are of a higher resolution than what is found on-line. Johnston was born at Fort Sam Houston US Army Air Corps Base in San Antonio, TX. in 1942.Johnston was hired by Grumman Aircraft Corp. because of his training as a pilot with an avionics background for the Apollo Lunar Module testing. His duty was to assist with cockpit and instrument development and Astronaut training at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.Ken later worked at the Lunar Receiving Laboratory, where all the moon rocks were stored, cataloged and in some cases, distributed to scientists from around the world. As the Director of the Data and Photo Control Department he had access to all the original lunar pictures, film and slides.When the lunar sample distribution wound down, he was instructed to destroy what remained of the photo archive, but Johnston kept one set as a personal collection for a work portfolio. This personal portfolio became known as “Ken’s Archive” and has been used by researchers from around the world to help them discover evidence of ET presence, past and present on the Moon.Website: KenJohnstonMedia.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Two hundred years ago, geologists determined that there was never a worldwide flood.But the early geologists’ conclusion—which continues to be believed today—is indisputably erroneous, according to Michael Jaye, Ph.D.Told in easily understood language, Jaye explains how geologists got it so wrong, and more importantly, he challenges their modern-day peers to examine foundational beliefs, especially in the presence of new map data. Along the way, he identifies and rectifies geology’s historic error and its consequences, answering questions such as:• Why do geologists believe that there was never a worldwide flood? How is this belief erroneous?• How did submerged structures like Monterey Canyon form? What process do geologists ascribe to their formation?• In what way are Google Earth and Google Maps similar to Galileo’s telescope?With new map data revealing submerged rivers in more than two miles of water, it’s clear that such a volume could only have a cosmic source.Jaye identifies the impact remnants, and he explains how its effects irreversibly changed Earth’s ecosystem. Humans are among surviving species, but we find ourselves ill-adapted to the post-flood ecosystem.Discover a historical, scientific, and philosophical treatment of The Worldwide Flood—it will forever change the way you consider Earth and human history.Michael Jaye, Ph.D., recently retired as an associate professor at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He previously spent fifteen years teaching mathematics and its applications at West Point, New York. His interest in the worldwide flood began with Google Maps images of the Monterey Canyon system.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
