Introduction

I’ve named my web site New History of America, because I believe we can be a part of discovering a covered up and distorted history . By exploring and understanding the past, humanity can be guided into the future with eyes wide open, or alternatively as we seem to be proceeding today, with eyes closed.

Over decades I have visited and studied ancient petroglyph sites in America to better understand our past with an eye to better comprehend the present. With a background in exploring sacred sites, and the insights gleaned from mentors, collaborators and other explorers, I penned Secrets of Ancient America, which describes what I’ve learned about American history before Columbus and how it was revealed to me.

During excursions to Kansas in 2019 and Kentucky in 2020 I rediscovered another incredible feature of the New History – Portable Rock Art (PRA).  My current focus is to bring to light this little understood and unrecognized ancient artform. My upcoming book, More Than Meets The Eye: (re)Discovering Portable Rock Art, reveals all that I’ve learned about this overlooked paleo art tradition.  The New History of America Rock Art / Artfacts pages  provide a look-see into a whole new world of art, archaeology and learning.

I continue regular excursions including rock art, archaeoastronomy and sacred site journeys related to the New History, and welcome input, comments and collaborations.
