Here is something that may be of interest. In the book, TRAVELS through North and South Carolina, Georgia, and West Florida, by William Bartram, it describes something very interesting. The book is transcribed just as the original author wrote it. On pages 36 and 37, it speaks of and describes ancient ruins located in Georgia, approximately 8 miles west, northwest of Wrightsboro, GA.
It describes 0n pg. 37: "Not far distant from the terrace, or eminence, overlooking the low grounds of the river, many very magnificent monuments of the power industry of the ancient inhabitants of these lands are visible. I observed a stupendous conical pyramid, or artificial mount of earth, vast tetragon terraces, and a large sunken area, of a cubical form, encompassed with banks of earth; and certain traces of a larger Indian town, the work of a powerful nation, whose period of grandeur perhaps long preceded the discovery of this continent."
My wife is reading the book, and came across this description. It may definitely be worth some looking into. She has just started the book, but it may hold other gems of hidden history within upcoming pages.
Let me know what you think.
