The plot thickens in Ohio

I appreciate your tenacity. You keep providing arguments that demand the attention of the fate-keepers. They ignore it at the peril of becoming as respected as flat-earthers.

Hearing about glacial boulder impacts in Ohio is music to my ears. It's been my stomping grounds for the past 53 years.

[@DabblersDen]

This sounds an awful lot like the Yorktown Mastodon I featured in a video a few years ago. Of course, the scientists involved in that excavation favored the overkill hypothesis for that mangled mastodon...

I was happy to see that there is evidence for additional pockmarks in that region of Ohio. We will need to revisit this area once better LiDAR is available.

[@justmenotyou3151]

​@@DabblersDenThanks for that information.

[@Alarix246]

There must be many such mastodonts in the vicinity! I wonder of the ground penetrating radars are able to pick these deposits?

[@bradschoeck1526]

Clearly the paleo Indians figured out a way to launch massive ice boulders at these animals in order to decimate them all at the end of the last ice age….which is simply a coincidence that they all were killed by humans at the same time the climate changed massively…

Another thought provoking presentation.

[@BrianKasher]

Bravo! Your teachers deserve a golden star. For they knew your mind would take you far. They may never know where your heart may go but your intellect, it’s no show. You are my newest hero, Antonio, because you know your shit. You spend your days both sharing knowledge and shredding those who are full-of-it. All I know is all I know. I see others not rising to your pinky toe. Thank you for what you do, and mostly for being you. You are a ray of light evolved from the waste of stars we see tonight. You are no dummy. That’s why I feel chummy … and throw roses to your feet. Breaking new ground it is you who astound and establish fact with science that is sound. Next to you I might look like a clown but in the end I don’t let others down. I found an entire ancient town. 8 megatons indeed. You answered my need. We are all derived from the byproducts of stars… or could their mission be to give birth, to recycle us? It is in each other we trust, but only a tiny few we must. You are a jewel who sends others back to school. Your mama taught YOU well so today YOU ring the bell. I mean it when I say … be well Antonio. Be well. Bravo!

Another great presentation Antonio, very interesting.

The bones and whatever evidence is left behind become a matter of later interpretation. I think modern academia is very closed-minded regarding theory and hypothesis. They tend to regard consensus as having more validity. Consensus can be very wrong, though.

[@AustinKoleCarlisle]

most atrocities in history were the result of consensus of opinion.

[@Alarix246]

It's like self-hypnosis. I came to Australia from Czechoslovakia, and most visits to my fellow Czech immigrants ended up with circular ensuring each other that learning English was impossible. Plus they were so happy that their kids picked up English so fast at school that they let them forget speaking Czech, which caused their kids disregarding their parents and being unable to communicate as one forgot Czech and the other never learnt proper English. I think this happens across the world in many migrant families who let their kids forget their native language - big mistake. Of course the same big mistake is to not devote due time for their own English development. On the other hand, most countries have English as the second language at school. It was only is in the ex-Soviet bloc who were forced to learn Russian as their second language, while Russians themselves learnt English! But this mutual self-hypnosis, or crowd hypnosis, is very wide and I'm sure it is a strong factor here with the archaeology or geology or even physics and meteorology/climatic change sciences!

[@macioluko9484]

I remember taking a second year geology class in 2004 at the University of Calgary. There were a few moments in the class when I thought the peer reviewed work was reaching but none as much as the (at the time) current explanation of lacustrine, aeolian karst forces that allegedly formed the Carolina Bays.

[@frogmtndoc]

Wow. Another new puzzle piece supporting the ice shield impact theory.

[@siRiderkdw9]

I am curious if central Illinois, specifically south eastern Christian county and major areas in western Shelby county are any clues or interesting details to these events. There are two specific areas, Knobs (currently named Tower Hill) and also Williamsburg Hill areas. I know a mastodon was found on or near Williamsburg Hill. This is also the same area which is the south western most areas of the ice sheet merain. Anyone with information is welcome knowledge! Thank you!

[@justmenotyou3151]

Nice job.

[@jmonty]

Greetings Antonio. With the amount of energy created from an impacting ice boulder so great. I would think a direct impact would leave little if anything from an animal. However, a very near impact, I would hypothesize, would leave a large animal with injuries you describe. The blast wave alone would be sufficient to fracture bones and dislocate a skeleton. From what i have read, mammoths were pack animals. I would wager if your theory is correct, then their are many more skeletons nearby.

[@lapoguslapogus7161]

Yes, that's what I was thinking. A direct hit at 2.5km/sec would obliterate the poor beast. Maybe a smaller fragment which had slowed down significantly during re-entry/. Great research from Antonio as usual.

[@simplysteve68]

So, is there any new info this one has from the one posted earlier?

[@Antonio_Zamora]

I think there was a glitch

[@RobertSmith-uo4jx]

If the bones still exist then carbon 14 dating can probably be performed to determine approximately when the mastodon died. Thus giving even more empirical evidence to this event.

[@bardmadsen6956]

There was a video just the other day of the lead Archaeologist of Gobekli Tepe stating that they couldn't date any of the bones from the site! The same one that told me, with bullet points, that there isn't a row of seven birds under Pillar 18, and in this latest video they, one of the hosts, were both looking at them and laughing at ME! I've read in a couple of books about digging wells around the South part of The Great Lakes and running into trees, they should be able to date finds like this also. I've been kicking around the idea of contacting well drillers to report wood, even though I'm not even sure if it is noticeable with current equipment.

[@Antonio_Zamora]

The bones of the mastodon are at the Ohio History Connection, where Dave Dyer is the Curator of Natural History.

Excellent, this mystery is going to be solved sooner than later!

@@Antonio_Zamora I sent you an email just now. Long Story short, Scientists Hypothesize a comet created glass in the Atacama Desert in N. Chile some 12,000 years ago. Maybe this comet was part of a larger comet complex, of which parts struck N. America, and the Laurentide Ice Sheet, and created the events in which you hypothesize. I would be interested in hearing your comments! -Blake

Unfortunately the Mastadon is not evidence of anything other than a dead Mastadon. In an area of ice lobe movement and meltwater, and number of forces could have disrupted those bones. You would need a CSI team to establish (if possible) if the damage and disarticulation was post mortem before making any conclusions that they were the cause of death.

[@Antonio_Zamora]

Like I mentioned, the site would need a forensic psychologist. The remains have been moved to a museum, but maybe they can still provide a few hints about the cause of death.

[@stevenarrasmith]

Carbon 14 test on a molar? I assume more precise measurements possible now than back then.

[@borderlineiq]

That was my thought as well. Because of the too-heaviliy-hypothetical scenario, I think it risks discrediting the almost indisputable portions of the Younger Dryas Impact Theory. There are too many other possible explanations for the damage to a single mammoth skeleton, including several that could have happened being after the death of the animal. It is highly likely that the impact in turn bombarded megafauna of all species. Therefore, citing a single skeleton is not good evidence. These attributions should be applied to digs where entire herds of mammoth remains have been unearthed, or similar. Time has erased much of that evidence due to the organic nature of animal remains.

[@Antonio_Zamora]

In Marlboro County, SC there are no fossils, but the energy of the ice boulder bombardment was about 8 megatons per square kilometer. What kind of remains would you expect?

[@borderlineiq]

@@Antonio_ZamoraNot sure if the question is to me or another poster, but my point, with no reference to fossils, is that this would be, like the Carolina Bays, only a strong argument or evidence IF it is part of a collection of crushed remains in the same area, and extensive enough that a bombardment is the likely cause, excluding avalanches, landslides, or other cataclysms. Singularly, it's just too hypotheical.
