Produktbeschreibung

Mystery Stone from the Shenandoah
Analyzed with Eastern Woodland Cosmology

Discovered along the Shenandoah River near Berryville, Virginia, a remarkable tablet-shaped stone bears mysterious peck-marked designs that hint at intentional artistry. In this richly illustrated and contemplative study, the author invites readers into a multi-layered investigationblending archaeology, Indigenous cosmology, visual analysis, and personal reflection.

Rather than forcing a singular explanation, the work honors ambiguity and guides readers through possible interpretations, including archetypal figures such as the avian-man, skeletal shaman, and Earth Mother. The imagery echoes the tripartite Indigenous view of cosmosOverworld, This World, and Netherworldand resonates with the symbolic depth of Eastern Woodland traditions.

With an openness rare in academic discourse, this work not only analyzes the stone but allows it to speak back. The result is both scholarly and spiritual: a portal into the past, a mirror to the present, and a reminder that meaning often arises from mystery itself.

Autorenporträt

For many years, the author taught a course on the symbolism of Indigenous cultures. During several trips he made deep into the interior of Guatemala, he experienced the Indigenous lifestyle and was exposed to ancient Mayan rituals. In this work, he draws upon his experience as a photographer and his own vision quest experiences. By sharing this work, the author hopes to return the gift that this stone has given him.
