Again, we see yet another item of archaeological interest that points at the fact that we were spread across the globe at some point and not just living in small groups using stones to scratch each others backs and make pretty pictures in caves.
Oh no, we were far more than that.. A lot more..
Posted recently was another set of examples which you can read about here.
“After 11 years of searching the Funk Heritage Museum, near Atlanta, Georgia, has identified the 11-foot long boulder decorated with ancient petroglyphs are being identical to those found along the Atlantic Coast in Ireland, which date from the Early Bronze Age.
The new discovery creates more questions about North America’s history than it answers.
Dr Joseph Kitchens, Director of the Funk Museum, on the campus of Reinhard University took over the challenge back in 2008 to find out where this massive boulder with concentric rings, circles, crosses and stars (what archaeologists call petroglyphs) carved into its side came from.
Having ruled out the more likely sources such as Native American Indians Kitchens cast his search wider and found his answer last week in Northern Ireland, according to reports in The Examiner.
Kitchens contacted the Irish Megalithic Organization and its founder, author Anthony Weir. It has been confirmed that this boulder in Georgia is identical to many found in Ireland. Weir has been documenting and photography petroglyphs in Ireland for over 30 years.”
