The Ohio Historical Society and Adams County authorities investigate a strange case of vandalism. Officials say a group that calls itself Unite The Collective buried objects embedded with aluminum foil and quartz crystal at the Serpent Mound. Officials have uncovered three so far, but believe there could be hundreds buried at the 63 acre ancient Native American site. Video that was posted on YouTube will be a key piece of evidence. The video has since been removed from the website. Unite the Collective members describe themselves as "light warriors" who say they planted the objects to "help lift the vibration of the earth so we can all rise together."

they may be trying to 'do good' in their eyes, but then again they could open up the gates of hell, so to speak.
And how many other sites have they desecrated? and what will the repercussions be?
scary.
128. ORC plans to transfer the Seaton lands to private developers for development. Once transferred the developers will be free to develop the Seaton lands without further archaeology or other efforts to locate sacred Ojibwa sites the Applicant Ojibwa Nations reasonably believe to exist there.

Ruthless developers. That is just wrong.
