Discovery of Ancient Tablets in a Michigan Mound

“A tablet graven in an unknown language with what appears to be the Ten Commandments is the most interesting of many extraordinary antiquities from a mound north of this village, and now lying about in farmhouses and barns. Other curiosities from the mound are sarcophagi containing what appear to be burned human remains, flint spear heads scratched with rude pictures suggesting Noah's flood, pottery, ornaments and weapons. Are these things relics of the mysterious civilization that dominated this land before the Indian arose to trample it under foot? Only an archaeologist can answer the question. That the curiosities were not ‘planted’ by some practical joker is proved by the fact that great pine trees some centuries old have grown over the mound since the articles were buried there. — Millennial Star 62:49”
