Serpent Mound, Ohio submitted by bat400 on 27th May 2006. Serpent Mound, Adams County, Ohio.
View looking toward the serpent "tail" which curls into a tight spiral. This view is to the west and taken from ground level. Note the size by the three figures walking between the coils of the tail. The horizontal line just above and beyond the mound is a guard rail installed to prevent people from falling down the steep face of the hillside and into Brush Creek below.

Sechin Alto
Date Added: 25th Sep 2018
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: Peru
Visited: Yes on 3rd Sep 2018. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Log Text: Sechin Alto is a large and somewhat chaotic site with no signage. Its completely surrounded by mango orchards ("Mangos are money." said our guide.) If you are shown where to climb up on paths and among the sharp edged rock pieces that make up the structure, you can see foundations of rooms, platforms, and an area in the central mound made from piled adobe.
This is a stark and exposed site. Awesome and intimidating.
