Some very interesting artifacts found in the Mid West of particular interest to me was the picture of the bearded man looking much like our depictions of Jesus..........................................................................................Glenn Kimball writes: "There are over a hundred man made mounds located from the East Coast to west of the Mississippi and from Canada to Mexico. One in eight of them have produced some sort of artifact. There were also golden, copper and silver artifacts, jewelry, tools and weapons found. The writing on the stone varies with the region, but the ones here are all written in ancient Negev, which was a written language from south of Jerusalem into Egypt. Other languages included languages composed of mixtures of Coptic, Greece and Hebrew. The stones were carved from a variety of stones. Some of them were made of clay so that they were easier to work with." Below are images of some of these artifacts, along with Kimball's commentary: See link http://www.coasttocoastam.com/gen/page1870.html?theme=light
