Hey guys, let's take a look at these forgotten mounds called Wright Earthworks, in Newark
Ohio.
This is one of the last few remaining earthen walls that are still standing and you can
see that it has been destroyed by modern construction on all sides.
Archaeologists think that it was built by Hopewell people around 250 to 500 A.D.
The aerial view of Wright Earthworks is very interesting to look at because you can visualize
how this area would have looked 1500 years ago.
Imagine mounds like these forming complex geometric shapes all over Ohio for about 3,000
acres.
Today, you can see houses, shops, and busy highways but once upon a time, a vast area
was completely covered with mounds like these forming amazing designs that can be viewed
only by the Gods from above.
Archaeologists say that these earthen walls were built as ceremonial mounds.
What this actually means is that archaeologists cannot find any logical reason as to why these
structures were created.
A few videos back, I showed you how Newark Earthworks could have been used as alien airports.
You can see a right angle shape formed by these 2 mounds, but this was just a very small
part of a square that covered 20 acres of land.
And that large square itself was only a small part of Newark Earthworks that stretched for
3,000 acres.
So you can try and imagine what this place would have looked like before so much of this
monumental architecture was destroyed by modern day people in the last few centuries.
Most people who visit Newark Earthworks don't know about the Wright Earthworks, because
it is located in an isolated place.
You can find the address in the description below this video.
In case you are wondering why such an ancient site is named "Wright Earthworks", nobody
really knows what this place was originally called but this piece of land was donated
to the Ohio Historical Society by a lady called Frances Wright in 1934.
This is the reason why we call it Wright Earthworks.
Today, each of these earthen walls is less than 200 feet long.
It is now impossible to understand the geometry and the complex design of Newark Earthworks
because we have destroyed most of this ancient architecture.
What is more interesting is that recent investigations are showing that the people who built these
mounds were actually Giants who were more than 7 feet tall.
A lot of authors like Fritz Zimmerman, Jim Vieira and Ross Hamilton have dug up some
solid evidence to show that the mound builders were in fact, Nephilims or Giants.
You can also see author E.P Grondine's video on my channel where he talks about Giants
who dominated Ohio valley.
I hope you liked this little forgotten piece of history, I am finding a lot of intriguing

Thank you for watching and talk to you soon.
