Lost Book of the Indians

[halsherman]

The lost book of the Indians has been referred to many times by
Indians and whites. Does anyone have any info that hasn't been given on this site below? The Shawnee chief Cornstalk talks about the white race that lived here before him and Clark made statements regarding the same thing. I always like to read about the mysteries of the past in hope they will be solved some day.

Just read some info on the lost book. Appearently some words in Algonquin sound and have the same meaning as in an old Norse language. It may be speculated that the book may have been in old Norse? The Nativies have supposedly said that after they lost the ability to read the book, it was buried with a chief, so don't count on it ever showing up. Is fun to read of the lost book, but I wouldn't put much stock in all this however.

In another direction, look for the book "America B.C." by Berry Fell if you enjoy mysteries of the past. Among other things, it documents where the Micmac had a written language of hyrogliphs that are a 90-95% match with incursive Egyptian in symbols and meanings.

Hi Doc

Thanks for your posts.

This reminds me of the West Virginia Petroglyph "controversy" that erupted in the early 80s surrounding the mystery of the Ogham inscriptions supposedly found there. I haven't heard much of the outcome of those debates among scholars regarding the glyphs, but it has always been an interesting subject. There certainly is more to the history of native North America than we know, and these little mysteries add some flavor to the pot. I think it still remains to be seen how accurate some of these claims are and what is just idle speculation.
