From the People of One Fire:
Each time that the History Channel or one of its overseas affiliates
re-runs the premier of American Unearthed - the Mayas in Georgia - I am
inundated with emails from around the world, with questions about
visiting the half square mile terrace complex. Unfortunately, I have
never been paid a penny from being on the program.
Yesterday, 83 of my 100+ emails were asking questions about Track Rock
or one of the other stone architecture sites in northern Georgia. Three
days before, it apparently was broadcast in Mexico. I even received an
inquiry from a famous Mexican movie actress. Apparently, someone is
Mexico is thinking about doing a movie about the Maya refugees coming to
the Southeastern United States. She wanted to know how Creek women
dressed and if the Creeks practiced human sacrifice.
I wrote an article in the Examiner that answers all their questions and
give specific directions to the Track Rock and Sandy Creek terrace
complexes. If interested in keeping this information on file, you may

Have a great day.
