The Mystery of “Man Mound”

[MJameson]

You can tell it was in Wisconsin because the man was wearing a prehistoric cheese head hat.

That's just proof that wolverine is way older than we thought he ever was.

Thanks for showing this. People assume indigenous Americans and Australians were incapable of sophisticated culture and structure because of, well colonialism. They have some beautiful archaeology

Honestly, i thought more people would say this, but i assumed that this was a depiction of "Nanabozho" i learned about him while visiting another effigy mound. Nanabozho also known as nanabush is often depicted as a man with rabbit ears and is a spirit in Anishinaabe aadizookaan (traditional storytelling). He is a ojibwe trickster character aswell as a folk hero one story depicts him creating the first man and woman out of clay 😊 !

If you look up depictions of Nanabozho it uncanny the similarities !

For those wondering about the legs, they said that only noticed that this mound existed after the road was built, and now outlined and are trying to perserve it. whether or not that's true, idk

Damn, “the indigenous people predicted Perfect Cell? *Proof Aliens exits* “ and more on the Filip Zieba channel

My boy Garou successfully time traveled back to pre colonial America. Good on him.

I live in this area, it makes me sad it isn't more well known or protected/maintained better. Thank you for putting a spotlight on this, Milo.

It’s so sad that sites like this are destroyed just because they are in places that people find inconvenient.

Clearly this is the first known record of the concave head wojak

[FantasticILoveIt]

It makes me so happy as a native american (Maidu) to see you turn your attention to effigy mounds!! I really hope you go more into american archeology cause there's just so much cool shit about us that I wish was more people knew ❤

If Zelda's taught me anything, there's a memory hidden in every single one of those

“Which depicts-you don’t need me to explain this to you.” 100% got me. Well done Milo.

[Imyourinconvenience]

I love this mans content hes the only historian that posts stuff with an actual attitude

[LordCheeseCanorem]

Finally, a history short that is both well researched and gets to drop the “unusual and mysterious” line. I never thought I’d see the day

I love the bear procession mound - learned something new today Milo! Thanks for keeping up the good fight against misinformation - you're keeping me closer to sane.

Hate to say it, but _it looks like_ the head is cleaved in two
