成人头条 State professor Donald Blakeslee knew something was different about this place. What he didn't expect, however, was the immediate response he would receive from around the world.
鈥淚 never expected it to turn into this,鈥 Blakeslee said.
What Blakeslee is referring to is the discovery of a fabled lost city just past Ark City, Kansas, referred to as 鈥淓tzanoa鈥 by Spanish conquistadors' transcripts hundreds of years ago. There have long been whispers of Etzanoa being in the general area, but Blakeslee and his team were the first to finally put the puzzle together.
鈥淚t's amending history,鈥 said Blakeslee. 鈥淲hat this find represents is totally against what the history books told us. The Great Plains were originally thought to be sparsely populated, but this suggests that an intricate system of towns and cities dotted the regional map instead.鈥
Blakeslee and his team of students and other archaeologists matched the descriptions from centuries old transcripts with the surrounding landscape. When the pieces of the puzzle began to match perfectly, Blakeslee immediately contacted members of the 成人头条 tribe for approval. It is believed that the 成人头条 tribe are direct descendants from the inhabitants of the ancient city of Etzanoa.
Upon further investigation, Blakeslee elaborated that some of the artifacts found at the site contained rocks and minerals not found in the local area. This find intrigued Blakeslee and his team, and led him to form a hypothesis that is perhaps groundbreaking.
鈥淚t is my belief that indigenous groups from the Great Plains traded not only with other groups from the east and west coasts, but with civilizations belonging to Central and South America as well.鈥
The discovery of Etzanoa is not only a major find in regard to the local population and townships, but also challenges conventional thinking about how pre-colonial America looked like.
鈥淚t totally rewrites the history books,鈥 Blakeslee said. 鈥淚t's a reminder that history is fluid; every answer we uncover just leads to more questions.鈥
