6. Thank you for taking the time to look through it. Western "civilization" knows so very little about the original peoples

of the Americas, and it appears they simply didn't feel moved to find out more, apparently believing the only important cultures had already been identified by Europeans well before they "discovered" the "New World."

Ignore in haste, eat crow centuries later! It appears they are just getting started to learn about the still unknown original civilizations, made so much easier through the invention of ground-penetrating radar, the LIDAR breakthrough which is going to lead them to discovery after discovery after discovery, from now forward for a very long time.

There's going to be a lot of embarrassment to share by the Euro-centric scientists and their utterly short-sighted adherents. It should be fun to watch, but far more exciting to see as the doors finally start to open on a whole new view of the people who lived here long before Colombus stomped off his boat.

We have so much to anticipate from now onward!

Thank you, again, peacebuzzard.
