mounds-small

Yesterday I traveled up to Chillicothe, Ohio to explore the group of Hopewell mounds called the Mound City Group. It is a 13-acre site surrounded by an earthen wall, with 22 mounds inside the enclosure. I have been trying to investigate ancient mounds and earthworks to see if I can detect any paranormal energy or abnormal electromagnetic properties of any kind. I don’t really have the equipment I need for a thorough examination, but I have been using my EMF meter, compass, and other devices. I even tried using a pendulum to dowse around the site.

This would work better if I knew exactly what it was I was dowsing for, but I thought I would give it a try with the intention of finding human remains or artifacts of any kind. I didn’t get much of a reaction from my pendulum, but that could be because I am new at this and need a lot more practice. OR it could mean that the mounds are now completely empty. That’s another possibility.
