Explore Ancient Ruins of Noble County

Kendallville, IN – In Noble County, the past is often buried.
 
One man has uncovered it and will share its secrets at the Kendallville Public Library.
 
Author and scholar Fritz Zimmerman will talk about Ancient Ruins of Noble County, which includes information on his Native American burial ground discoveries in the area. He will speak at the Kendallville Public Library on Saturday, April 9 from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
 
Zimmerman is the author of The Nephilim Chronicles, which guides readers into the mysterious world of the Allegewi Hopewell mound builders from 1000 B.C. - 500 A.D. Two-hundred-twenty-two mound and earthworks sites have been photographed, with directions provided in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia and Michigan.
 
Zimmerman's second book, The Nephilim Chronicles: Fallen Angels in the Ohio Valley, leads readers on a journey of open-air earthen and stone temples and burial mounds. It includes the historical accounts of over 300 giant skeletons that have been discovered within burial mounds and subsurface tombs, revealing new insights on the people of North America.
 
Zimmerman's books will be available for purchase at this library event. Those interested in attending his presentation are required to register at the library by April 6. Call the library at 343-2010 or send an email to info@kendallvillelibrary.org.

Ancient Ruins in Indiana are Revealed for the First Time.

According to Fritz Zimmerman, 13 years of field work investigating over 700 mounds and earthworks in Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky and Michigan has resulted in the book, "The Nephilim Chronicles; A Travel Guide to the Ancient Ruins in the Ohio Valley."

400 ancient sites dating from 1200 B.C. - 1200 A.D. were physically investigated in Indiana, including some in Noble County, near Kendallville, with 86 burial mounds and earthworks located across the extent of Indiana's borders. A total of 222 mound and earthwork sites were located, photographed and directions provided in the adjoining states. Most mound and earthwork sites include descriptions from local or county histories.

 A mysterious people known as the mound builders have left their indelible mark upon the soil of Indiana. Across the Ohio Valley are geometric earthworks that were constructed using precise units of measurement. The earthworks are perfect specimens of circles, squares, rectangles, octagons and parallel lines; which were based upon solar, lunar or stellar cycles and their calculable durations. They are also very functional on a "day to day" basis as a static computer for determining how the Earth was situated in relation to the greater cosmos.

The mound builders practiced ancestral worship, with much effort expended in housing their honored dead in burial mounds. These earthen heaps represented a conduit between this world and the next. Within the mound, the deceased formed a collective of the dead that were not seen as individuals, but represented a mystified past that could help govern the future.

The largest burial mound at Moundsville, West Virginia, is a perfect conus that towers 70 feet in height. In Indiana, burial mounds in the Lake Erie drainage are small, with an average height of 3-5 feet and 35 feet in diameter. The Lake Michigan drainage mounds are larger, with 10-15 feet in height not uncommon. In the Ohio River drainage some of the burial mounds are quite large; the largest in the state of Indiana, called the Pyramid Mound, near Vincennes, is over 50 feet in height.
In Indiana, nothing is preserved! Only 3 ancient sites are registered as "Historic" places. A lecture tour across the five States is endeavored to highlight America's ancient past and organize local groups to preserve these National treasures.

Did a Race of Giants Once Roam Ancient Indiana?
The skeletons of over 300 giant humans that roamed North America, as early as 9,000 years ago has been documented through newspaper archives, state and local histories in, "The Nephilim Chronicles; Fallen Angles in the Ohio Valley." Along with skeletal remains that have been recorded from 6-9 feet in height are reports of "archaic" or "primitive" types of skulls, that included prominent brow ridges, sloping foreheads and massive jaws. The majority of these finds were found in both the Great Lakes region and within the burial mounds in the Ohio Valley.

Alternative theories are proposed for the peopling of North America that include the global migrations of the Cro Magnon Hunters and Fishers (7000 B.C. - 2000 B.C.) who had circumnavigated the northern latitudes; leaving behind a similar material culture, from the Baltic Sea to Siberia to the northern Japanese Islands and to the coastlines and Great Lakes region of North America. Their skeletal remains show similarities to the Upper Paleolithic Cro Magnon, or even the earlier Neanderthal.

Current archaeological theories of evolution are debunked with the recent finds on the Indonesian Island of Florensis and the Denisovan cave in Siberia, that show that modern humans and Neanderthals did interbreed. There's even some talk amongst anthropologists of reclassifying Neanderthals as subspecies (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) and of classifying Denisovans and Florensis as a subspecies. "The sudden appearance of Cro Magnon in Europe along with fossil records would suggest some Neanderthal/Cro Magnon interbreeding, and there is some evidence of cultural contact between the two groups." Klein, Richard G. "Whither the Neanderthals?" Science 299 (2003)

Theoretically, these recent finds could explain the many reports in the Great Lakes region where skulls were described as "Neanderthal" or the "Missing Link." These skull types, burial practices and tools are consistent with their Eurasian counterparts.

The Hunters and Fishers migrations were followed by the accounted giants in the Bible, called the Amorites. Their gigantic remains were uncovered and documented in the greatest numbers within the burial mounds in southern England and in the Ohio Valley. They too, had their origins within the tall Cro-Magnon species. The Amorites conical burial mounds, surrounded by a ditch or curb are unmistakable, and can still be seen in Syria, Jordan, southern England and the Ohio Valley.

Circular earthen temples, with solar alignments, known as henges are found exclusively in the British Isles and the Ohio Valley. Additional comparisons of skeletal remains, symbolism, etymology, mathematics, numerology and sacred geometry are examined in Israel, within the Bible, the British Isles and the Ohio Valley. Overwhelming evidence is presented that ties the Biblical Nephilim with the builders of Stonehenge and the many henges in the Ohio Valley.
