Hi Mike - I hope I am not spoiling anyone's source here, but
Your go-to guy for Serpent Mound geological specimens is Tom Johnson of the House of Phacops. He can also provide local fossils. IMO, there is a whole lot of BS that is spouted as regards the ceremonial complex there. That said, the EMF there at the impact epicenter is high enough to disorient migrating birds, and interfere with electronic circuits, including those of the human brain. I hope to put my and my colleague Fletcher Wilson ( one of Ohio's leading naked eye astronomers) pamphlet into e-book from someday.

My interest was triggered by receiving a batch of Serpent Mound breccia chunks which I cut and sold. (still have some available). I have never visited the site, but if I ever find myself in that neck of the woods, I will certainly pay a visit. Hope to see you there one day. :) Best regards, MikeG On Nov 4, 2015 8:28 PM, "E.P.

It appears clear from the structure itself that it was meant to reflect the constellation Draco, although Its builders the Andaste were genocidally exterminated before any detailed record was made of their astronomy. While the weather here in Ohio usually prevents viewing the Draconids, it appears they would be visible a month or a month and a half earlier at the time this site was first cleared, sometime after 1,000 BCE or so. Note especially the later construction ca 360 BCE. We currently have no idea what triggered that. Draco's radiant's location has implications as far as Gobekli Tepe's alignments. Has the Earth been hit by trwo cometary streams in the last 15,000 years, both Giacbinii Zinner and Encke? In other words, precisely how bad is the cometary impact hazard? Has the recent rate of cometary injection been high, or is this normal?
