-Caveat Lector-
Bush supposedly unveiled a plan to buy the land with state
funds but we all know about political promises, especially
Native Americans...
On May 12, 1999 I went down to Miami to see the Miami
Circle, the recently excavated archaeological remains of an
early Native American structure at the mouth of the Miami
River. I'd seen archaeological survey pictures but upon
review of them again, after my visit to the site, I
realized that the published photos were specially taken to
disclude the skyline of Miami proper. This site is right on
the river bank where the river empties into Biscayne Bay,
and is bordered by a seawall on two sides (North and East).
Generally speaking the empty lot is totally surrounded by
some rather raucous and definitely humongous modern
architecture. The excavations themselves had been
Re-covered with the original overburden, and I was observing
all this with binoculars from where I was parked at the top
of the bridge which borders the west side of the site.
At 3 AM even Miami is quiet, and I was allowed a
true birds eye view of the earthworks. Elevation is
moundlike, rising up toward the east to its maximum height,
which appears by eye to be 8 or 10 feet. Beneath the
rubble covering the site proper lay the posthole molds and
other Archaeo Logical evidence left by some sort of
inhabited structure. Situation of this historical detritus
leads some to believe the site may have posessed spiritual
aspects.
This, to me, seems easy to perceive because the Early
People in America were uniquely in tune to their
environment, and most if not all of their actions and
constructions were spiritually weighed against the
ramifications of their interaction with their worlds. The
Native American religion reflects above all their
Relationship with the Earth, and their utter cohesiveness
with it. It is a well developed form of spirituality very
much akin to many of the early european religions prior to
Christianity.
This, also, is easily seen when it is realized that
Christianity has always been nothing so much as the
carrying-on of Romes Empire. The Native American Tribes had
this hugely bountiful and awesomely beautiful world of
America to themselves, before european intervention, and the
europeans, by the time of their arrival, had diverged down
the evolutionary path away from an Earth Religion for almost
1500 years. They had been well converted by their
conqueror, Rome, who had pretty much adopted a Southern
religion, an aspect of Judaism which was to become
Christianity as we know it.
So. This continuing Empire of Rome, this
Christianity, had developed fair technology by the time of
its intervention in the American Ecology, up to and
including explosive ballistics, and between their technology
and their germs they laid waste to the indigenous peoples of
America. The genotypes of many thousands of thousands of
years were wasted and lost, maybe to recur someday in the
far far future, maybe not.
I put the binoculars down and looked around the bridge
whose wall I was now standing on. There was this huge and
phallic modern monument on the top of the bridge, a bunch of
intertwined bodies I think, with some archer at the top in a
very dramatic shooting pose and aiming upward. Shoot the
moon, yeah.
I found this modern sculpture banal and lacking against
the popularly perceived simplicity of the abode below me by
the river, which I know, through reading and searching,
posesses the keys for a new perception, or a true rebirth of
old perceptions, and therefore, at this time in history
anyway, is infinitely more valuable and necessary. I
pictured a quick flow of time; the next end, the toppling of
that statue, then hidden for 3000 years or so in the muck of
the mouth of the Miami River, and I thought maybe it might
have its day too, eventually. Will its ultimate finders
appreciate its message?
I don't know.
I believe though that there is a very distinct
possibility they will ridicule it. Depends on what the
future holds for our race genetically and environmentally,
the race of Human. If we poison ourselves and our
environment with chemicals and radioactive wastes so that
birth deformities or anti-immune traits become more common,
then our bequeathment will be despised. And whether we care
or not, we WILL be judged, By Future Generations....3tk4.
Time tempers the seemingly slow reaction of Life so that its
patterns disappear to all but the astute and vigilant. Or
the unwitting victims.
This all went through my head pretty quickly as I stood
the guardrail wall that ran along the top of the bridge.
I considered Man the builder, and the never ending
records made by this organism as it traverses its planetary
bounds, and how its constantly patting itself on the back in
ostentation, which is a stone cold lie, but everybody is so
duped by something suspiciously resembling a breeding frenzy
that we aren't flowering, we are forming a type of fungus,
or mold. I am pretty sure that the structure the newest
builders want to put on this spot would wipe out the site of
the Miami circle completely. So either way my ends are
served.
Because the way I see it, the people who have done what
they have done to that once pristine area do not deserve
that last nugget of preciousness and explanation that lies
right in their midst, and if they wipe it out, its nowhere
near the first time something like that has happened, and it
is surely nowhere near the last. Bottom line to me? It
won't be there for them. And that, from my viewpoint as a
warrior, is a great great victory.
The second option of course is the more favorable to
me. Remove the entire structure in pieces and reconstruct
it in a consecrated place far far away from they who are so
unconcerned with what is real. I have had this same fight
up here in Tampa and Thonotosassa. I have had my day as
concerns salvage, preservation, and activism to keep sites
from being totally destroyed. The whole endeavor called to
me very early in my life, I think I was 8 when I got my
first stone spearpoint, and in a very tangible way this
aspect of my spirituality is the real me. I study all
ancient peoples now, and their religions, and assimilate at
a mad rate with maybe 75-90% accuracy. I ought to get it
right near 100% about ten days or so before I die. Har
har. Now theres something to sing about, hey. More
thoughts through the brain like chain lightening flickering
the distant sky.
From my perch on the edge of the bridge I looked
directly down into the brightly lit area at the base of the
bridge, along the west side of the site. Some monkey had
been in there with a monkey machine, and scooped the bottom
of the river clean next to the seawall and around the
closest pilings of the bridge. A huge mound of seaweed,
tires, shopping carts, wooden pallets, bicycles, chemical
drums, and no doubt phrophylactics and tampon applicators
too, was piled high between the river and the site and it
stank badly. To me that kind of said it all right there.
There is one pure spot left in that whole area, and not
really pure because it has already been used once, but at
least used well, earth orderly, and in complete conjunction
with its entire surroundings. Now it is in the middle of a
compartmentalized warren, and it doesn't belong there. One
way or another it will be gone from there and the
desecration record will be complete at that once proud and
clean spot on the earth. This will be a message loud and
clear to the future, if yet another is needed.
The final benefit that can be had from this occurence
is a rise in the awareness of the people, so that all who
find comfort in primitive Earth Spirituality not only mourn
the loss of yet another aspect of the land, but the loss of
our ability to deal realistically with an environment that
is fragile and dying. The depredations of archaeology are
just mirror images of all depredations commited by the race
human, in its base gluttony and ignorant repast. The total
of our wrongs is horrible beyond belief, and will either be
addressed, or be the author of our extinction. The time of
choosing is almost upon us. Those of like mind must
overlook the minor differences and band together, or be
destroyed. Put away the petty politics and lets communicate
about survival, shall we? Lets make Magic. Thanks for
your time.
