Been listening to Hancock talk about N. America being a special place with unknown history. I am mainly signing up for this forum for this one bit of info/curiosity I have regarding this, so take it for what it is worth. So I lived in the Pacific NW for 20 years and spent lots of time in the Oregon Outback looking for artifacts/minerals. One place that always made me wonder was near Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge. Basically from that area all the way to a dry lake bed called Guano Lake and Beatys Butte, there is obsidian flakes and arrowheads/tools literally covering the entire area. The evidence of a massive human community is like nothing I have seen anywhere else. What irks me is that within the Refuge there are what appears to be large geoglyphs (many of them) in a very small area around Flook Lake. Most are the typical 'spirals' that are observed all around the world. Some look like part of the 'hummingbird' geoglyph in S. America. I tried to research anything about these and there is no recognition by anyone I can find except a couple of pictures on the web with nothing said about them. I invite anyone to go to Google Earth and look to the West and North/NE of Flook Lake, and tell me what you see. I would think something like this would be known about and protected, but these have dirt roads running through them and other human activity that is wiping them out over time. If these are real and what I think they are, they should be protected. Just curious on what others think when you look at it....thx!
