| 0:24 | · | Craig cresselius found something very unusual on his Brandenburg Kentucky |
| 0:29 | · | property something that would change the course of local archeology and legend for |
| 0:35 | · | Generations while plowing his field at Paradise |
| 0:41 | · | bottom he found a large Limestone slab lying on the ground |
| 0:48 | · | seeming to have fallen from a nearby Cliff it looked very ancient with some |
| 0:53 | · | kind of strange exotic language chiseled onto its surface |
| 1:00 | · | showed this strange Stone to friends and family he even took it to the Meade County Fair |
| 1:06 | · | for over 50 years but in all that time no one could decipher this unknown |
| 1:12 | · | language that was until British researchers identified it as ancient Welsh writing |
| 1:22 | · | not only that they tied it to the legend of Prince madok a European explorer that |
| 1:28 | · | sailed across the Atlantic in 1170 from northern Wales |
| 1:35 | · | according to the legend madok discovered and settled in North America hundreds of |
| 1:41 | · | years before Christopher Columbus if it could be proven history books |
| 1:46 | · | would have to be Rewritten however many academics said the markings |
| 1:53 | · | were made by natural processes While others said it was an outright fake |
| 2:00 | · | but it wasn't the only evidence there were ancient castle ruins found in |
| 2:08 | · | the woods of Southern Indiana Roman coins were found on each side of |
| 2:14 | · | the Ohio river in both Indiana and Kentucky |
| 2:20 | · | there were Native American stories of White Indians that inhabited the Falls |
| 2:25 | · | of the Ohio in Charlestown Indiana areas |
| 2:31 | · | and an Indian tribe encountered in 1803 with some members exhibiting blue eyes |
| 2:37 | · | white skin and other European features um even had blonde hair |
| 2:44 | · | but even more astounding is that many of their words had ancient Welsh Origins |
| 2:52 | · | this is the mysterious story of the Brandenburg Stone |

| 3:12 | · | [Music] the Ohio river runs 981 miles from |
| 3:20 | · | Pittsburgh Pennsylvania to Cairo Illinois it passes through Indiana's Countryside |
| 3:26 | · | from Lawrenceburg to Mount Vernon and along the way many beautiful places with |
| 3:32 | · | unusual stories [Music] ancient people used it as a super highway traveling hundreds of miles for |
| 3:40 | · | hunting and trade with other indigenous people while they knew about the river for |
| 3:46 | · | centuries Europeans did not taking the George Rogers Clark Bridge |
| 3:52 | · | from Clarksville to Louisville will pass the Yum Center and a forgotten plaque on |
| 3:58 | · | the right side of the road and memorializes the European discovery |
| 4:04 | · | of the Ohio River in 1669. it was discovered by French explorer |
| 4:11 | · | Renee Robert Cavalier sir De La Salle he |
| 4:16 | · | called the river La Belle riviere or the beautiful River |
| 4:22 | · | during his travels he encountered many Native American villages one of them |
| 4:28 | · | being the yuchi tribe in 1682 they were said to have curiously light skin color |
| 4:34 | · | unlike other tribes that lived in the region namely the Cherokee |
| 4:40 | · | they also buried their dead under stone slabs this was much more of a European |
| 4:46 | · | custom the Native Americans the yuchi were also observed using |
| 4:52 | · | copper kettles over their campfires it was uncertain where these had come from |
| 4:57 | · | as the kettles resembled a European design but perhaps more compelling the yuchi |
| 5:05 | · | called themselves The Children Of The Sun from far away many signs pointed to a much earlier |
| 5:12 | · | European contact in some of those signs were in southern Indiana |
| 5:20 | · | in 1799 near Jeffersonville Indiana early Indiana settlers found the remains |
| 5:26 | · | of six ancient skeletons unlike typical Indian burials they were |
| 5:32 | · | wearing copper breastplates once fitted for Men of War it was said that this armor had the |
| 5:39 | · | Welsh coat of arms a harp and a mermaid and inscribed in Latin was the phrase |
| 5:46 | · | virtuous Deeds meet their own reward |
| 5:52 | · | Northeast of Utica ancient bones of many men were found along Battle Creek |
| 5:59 | · | their bones were all over the place as if they were killed in some incredibly violent battle or perhaps scattered |
| 6:07 | · | afterward by scavengers they too were wearing armor |
| 6:13 | · | Battle Creek was the name given by early settlers after they saw all the skeletons |
| 6:20 | · | and the Mysterious Rose Island no place in Indiana is more associated |
| 6:28 | · | with the prince madok Legend Rose Island is actually a peninsula |
| 6:34 | · | along the Ohio River and is cut by an inlet known as 14 Mile Creek |
| 6:41 | · | the creek itself is legendary being associated with Tales of gold and silver |
| 6:47 | · | Treasure allegedly hidden in caves along its Shoreline |
| 6:52 | · | [Music] but perplexing to early explorers was something a lot more remarkable there |
| 7:00 | · | were ruins of an ancient castle with stone walls up to 75 feet tall |
| 7:05 | · | and in 1873 the state of Indiana surveyed it |
| 7:12 | · | Indiana State geologist Edward Travers Cox explored Rose Island at Charlestown |
| 7:19 | · | he had heard stories from locals that spoke of its mystery |
| 7:24 | · | he was assisted by Professor William Borden an equally educated and |
| 7:29 | · | knowledgeable man whom later founded his own University in world-renowned museum |
| 7:36 | · | these two men had traveled Indiana extensively studying and mapping |
| 7:43 | · | prehistoric sites together they provided an incredible detail of the ruins |
| 7:49 | · | [Music] findings were later published in the Indiana Geological Survey |
| 7:57 | · | they created a map of Rhode Island and its mysterious structures they verified |
| 8:03 | · | what was once thought to be folklore Chief among these findings was a |
| 8:10 | · | man-made Limestone wall it was 150 feet long and 75 feet tall at |
| 8:17 | · | one point it was not natural it was made by someone but it wasn't |
| 8:23 | · | clear who what was Sir it was one of the most |
| 8:28 | · | incredible archaeological finds of the 19th century |
| 8:34 | · | but from the 1880s to the 1930s people took these already quarried and cut |
| 8:40 | · | stones to make foundations for homes Bridges and other structures |
| 8:47 | · | the big four railroad bridge now a pedestrian-only bridge is said to have |
| 8:52 | · | used stones from Rose Island in 1900 Professor Borden built a museum |
| 8:59 | · | at New Providence Indiana it's amazing collection attracted |
| 9:05 | · | worldwide attention members of the Smithsonian traveled all |
| 9:11 | · | the way to rural Indiana just to see it |
| 9:17 | · | [Music] unique fossils of the warden collection considered some of the best examples in |
| 9:24 | · | the world were sent to the Chicago Field Museum to this day they still reside in their |
| 9:32 | · | catalog with the original inventory tags but other artifacts sent to the |
| 9:39 | · | Smithsonian cannot be located this is despite receipts return to Mr Warden on |
| 9:46 | · | official Smithsonian letterhead whatever was sent to the Smithsonian be |
| 9:52 | · | a proof of advanced civilizations or a Welsh Explorer in the 12th century is |
| 9:58 | · | simply gone at Louisville in 1898 a man named John |
| 10:05 | · | Brady found an ancient shield and helmet they were both authenticated and stayed |
| 10:11 | · | in the family for many generations however they were stolen in 1968. |
| 10:19 | · | president Thomas Jefferson was well aware of the prince madok Legend |
| 10:25 | · | it said that one of the copper breastplates found in Southern Indiana was sent to him but its whereabouts |
| 10:33 | · | today are unknown it's also rumored that some of the armor |
| 10:39 | · | from Battle Creek was sent to the Smithsonian for analysis but just like |
| 10:44 | · | items sent to them from William Borden they cannot be found anywhere in their |
| 10:50 | · | catalog |
| 10:55 | · | today you can visit the Charlestown State Park in tour Rose Island for |
| 11:01 | · | yourself if the park is offering a shuttle to the |
| 11:06 | · | island take it the path is extremely steep |
| 11:11 | · | in 1923 David Rose cleared the land and made it into a resort |
| 11:19 | · | any remaining stone structures or impediments were removed and lost to |
| 11:24 | · | history you could come and stay for the summer |
| 11:30 | · | dance eat under the cool shade trees and even |
| 11:36 | · | see animals in cages it had the first in-ground swimming pool |
| 11:42 | · | in the state of Indiana and was very popular but the great flood of 1937 finished off |
| 11:50 | · | the resort it was never rebuilt |
| 11:55 | · | it's now just a ghost town of memories |
| 12:07 | · | [Music] |
| 12:22 | · | [Music] foreign |
| 12:30 | · | the high above the walkway is Devil's Backbone where ancient stone still |
| 12:35 | · | captures the imagination a what was once here camouflaged by summer foliage late fall |
| 12:42 | · | is the ideal time to view the ridge [Music] |
| 12:53 | · | is it naturally occurring Stone placed by Nature |
| 13:00 | · | or stacked Long Ago by a Welsh Prince and his followers |
| 13:06 | · | for a fact it provides a commanding view of the river you could easily see it was |
| 13:13 | · | coming and going most archaeologists disagree with the |
| 13:19 | · | prince madok Legend saying prehistoric people built the structures on Rose |
| 13:25 | · | Island but true history is complicated a good |
| 13:30 | · | place to live in the past is often a good place to live in a much later time |
| 13:38 | · | prehistoric people and Prince madok could have both inhabited Rose Island |
| 13:44 | · | but this was not the only sight hinting of Prince madok |
| 13:50 | · | in 1875 near Deputy Indiana something curious was found at Wiggins point |
| 13:59 | · | an ancient enormous wall 425 feet long was discovered it was over |
| 14:06 | · | twice the size of the one at Rose Island |
| 14:11 | · | however it suffered the same fate with Pioneers using the stones to build |
| 14:17 | · | houses and other structures east of Deputy Indiana at the former |
| 14:24 | · | Jefferson Proving Ground military site Roman coins were found |
| 14:31 | · | to this day no one knows how they got there [Music] |
| 14:38 | · | 1963 during the construction of new albany's Sherman Minton Bridge numerous |
| 14:44 | · | Roman coins were found along the riverbank they were stacked in a pile as if once |
| 14:53 | · | in a bag that had disintegrated hundreds of years ago |
| 14:59 | · | made in the Roman Empire around 235 A.D there is no fully accepted explanation |
| 15:06 | · | of how they got there yet another Roman coin was found at |
| 15:12 | · | Stevens for Kentucky further west along the Ohio River |
| 15:18 | · | dated between 286 and 305 A.D it begs the question was it brought here by |
| 15:25 | · | Prince madok and his followers but while Roman coins and old Limestone |
| 15:32 | · | walls told nothing Native Americans had plenty to say |
| 15:42 | · | After the Revolutionary War General George Rogers Clark was given huge |
| 15:48 | · | tracts of land in southern Indiana he settled along the Ohio river and in |
| 15:55 | · | between running a gristville and writing his Memoirs explored this vast area |
| 16:03 | · | just west of his cabin in the middle of the Ohio river is Sand Island |
| 16:10 | · | upon this ancient mound of Earth he found thousands of human bones and |
| 16:15 | · | skulls they were scattered all over the island something terrible had happened |
| 16:21 | · | there a long time ago spoke with a Pianka Shaw Chief asking if |
| 16:29 | · | he knew what happened Chief tobacco said that the White Indians once lived on Sand Island |
| 16:36 | · | they were tall had golden hair blue eyes and took over the region they were not |
| 16:43 | · | liked by the other tribes two tribes ended up banding together and |
| 16:50 | · | killing every last man woman and child of the White Indians their last stand |
| 16:56 | · | being at Sand Island Major John Harrison also saw this large |
| 17:02 | · | scattering of Bones as if some chaotic and Savage battle had happened here |
| 17:09 | · | could the White Indians that were described be the legendary Prince madok and his European followers |
| 17:18 | · | both General Clark and Major Harrison wrote about Sand Island skeletons in |
| 17:24 | · | their journals One account states that General Clark also discovered ancient armor as founded |
| 17:31 | · | Jeffersonville Utica and Louisville but most peculiar is that one of the |
| 17:39 | · | skulls was taken to Louisville for analysis the conclusion of Dr Beckwith was that |
| 17:45 | · | the ancient skull was not that of an Indian |
| 17:51 | · | on October 26 1803 George Rogers Clark's brother William Clark and Meriwether |
| 17:59 | · | Lewis left Clarksville Indiana to explore lands obtained in the Louisiana |
| 18:04 | · | Purchase [Music] team of skillful and capable woodsmen |
| 18:10 | · | they traveled the Ohio River West and onward to the Pacific Ocean |
| 18:17 | · | along the way they met many indigenous tribes one being the Mandan people in |
| 18:24 | · | 1804 the mandans were very hospitable and accommodating so much so that all |
| 18:31 | · | the Explorers stayed the winter at their Village [Music] |
| 18:37 | · | during this time they learned a great deal about the mandas but they also noticed some very peculiar |
| 18:44 | · | other things some were Fair skirt with blue or gray |
| 18:51 | · | eyes some even had blonde hair which was very puzzling |
| 18:57 | · | in many ways they were much like Europeans and mannerisms customs and the |
| 19:04 | · | way they looked this would be noticed and documented by others |
| 19:10 | · | In 1832 George Catlin an American author and painter traveled to the mandans and |
| 19:17 | · | painted their portraits he also noticed striking similarities of |
| 19:25 | · | the mandan's to Europeans in his lifetime he painted over 1 000 |
| 19:32 | · | Native American portraits he also published two volumes describing |
| 19:39 | · | their mannerisms and customs based upon what he learned he was convinced that |
| 19:45 | · | the mandans were descendants of prince madok in the mounting evidence was more |
| 19:51 | · | than Skin Deep [Music] the first was that mandan's used A |
| 19:58 | · | peculiar type of boat fully unlike other Native Watercraft |
| 20:04 | · | instead of a canoe made for a line of occupants |
| 20:09 | · | their boats were circular a near perfect reproduction of ancient Welsh boats |
| 20:14 | · | called coracles |
| 20:20 | · | the second was that Mandan homes were constructed much like the ancient Welsh |
| 20:26 | · | with low rounded roofs but perhaps the most spectacular were |
| 20:32 | · | claims that many words were either similar or identical to the ancient |
| 20:37 | · | Welsh language president Thomas Jefferson will lead the |
| 20:43 | · | madok legend he even asked Lewis and Clark to look for these Welsh speaking |
| 20:48 | · | people and document whatever they found and they did |
| 20:56 | · | LaSalle had documented the natives in Tennessee with European traits mannerisms and artifacts |
| 21:03 | · | but after he was murdered in 1687 his journal disappeared |
| 21:11 | · | in his later years General Clark wrote quite a bit about his military service |
| 21:16 | · | days on the frontier in his life in Southern Indiana including the strange story of Sand |
| 21:23 | · | Island in finding ancient armor after a severe stroke he lived with his |
| 21:30 | · | sister and brother-in-law in Louisville after he died his writings were |
| 21:37 | · | transferred back to Indiana where he had lived for most of his adult life |
| 21:44 | · | journal with these incredible details restored at the Charlestown public library for anyone to view and study |
| 21:54 | · | however a large section of the journal was ripped out and stolen leaving no |
| 21:59 | · | mention of Sand Island or ancient armor his brother William Clark had a detailed |
| 22:07 | · | Journal that described the Expedition out west but it too suffered a similar fate |
| 22:14 | · | there's no record of the prince madok connection anywhere in the journal |
| 22:21 | · | major Harrison's account of Sand Island which backed up General clerks is |
| 22:26 | · | missing and the skull found on Sand Island verified by a doctor to be not of |
| 22:32 | · | an Indian is also missing and all the bones and skulls on Sand |
| 22:38 | · | Island seen by George Rogers Clark and Major Harrison however many there were |
| 22:44 | · | were cleared Away by the great flood of 1937. it was so powerful that it Swept Away |
| 22:52 | · | entire towns let alone the top soil of an Ohio River |
| 22:57 | · | Island what evidence that was disappeared as if |
| 23:04 | · | it never existed some would say they never existed at all |
| 23:10 | · | what others say all were deliberately and purposely erased from history |
| 23:17 | · | but intriguing Clues still remained and they were just across the river |
| 23:28 | · | in 1784 John philson produced the first map of Kentucky and presented it to the |
| 23:35 | · | United States Congress in his own right he was a well-respected surveyor |
| 23:40 | · | Explorer historian and author not to mentioned one of the founders of |
| 23:46 | · | Cincinnati Ohio in the same year he also published a |
| 23:51 | · | Monumental book on Kentucky history it was called the discovery settlement |
| 23:58 | · | and present state of Kentucky during his research he called a meeting |
| 24:05 | · | with General George Rogers Clark Major John Harrison and Colonel James Moore he |
| 24:11 | · | wanted to discuss the prince madok Legend and what they'd seen and experienced along the Ohio River |
| 24:18 | · | he got a lot more than he bargained for the three men recounted seeing a massive |
| 24:25 | · | amount of Bones on the diamond-shaped piece of land known as Sand Island |
| 24:31 | · | individually they told how local tribes gave all of them the same story about a |
| 24:37 | · | Mass Attack on these white Indians Colonel Moore told how the Carnage |
| 24:43 | · | seemed to continue to the Indiana side of the Ohio River there were thousands of ancient bones |
| 24:49 | · | found all over the shoreline covered in a layer of silt |
| 24:55 | · | in fact the entire Ohio River Greenway along the Falls of the Ohio was once a |
| 25:02 | · | gigantic graveyard but just four years later in 1788 while |
| 25:08 | · | exploring the Miami River in Ohio John philson disappeared |
| 25:13 | · | it was assumed that he was killed by hostile Indians but his body was never |
| 25:18 | · | found the Filson Historical Society in |
| 25:23 | · | Louisville is named in his honor these hallowed Halls contain a large |
| 25:30 | · | collection of history and perhaps hidden on a Dusty archived Shelf |
| 25:36 | · | tantalizing details of the prince madok Legend |
| 25:41 | · | the Filson is a temple of knowledge and has space for serious researchers it |
| 25:47 | · | includes a copy of Ruben Durant's traditions of the earliest visits of |
| 25:52 | · | foreigners to North America publication number 23. |
| 25:57 | · | all told the Filson collection contains over 2.1 million documents books photos |
| 26:05 | · | and other physical artifacts relating to Kentucky history [Music] |
| 26:11 | · | however what decisions were made about the prince madok Legend and John |
| 26:17 | · | philson's findings after his death are unknown |
| 26:23 | · | while the Filson seems transparent about its collection other societies and |
| 26:28 | · | institutions may not be to be clear the Filson was not started |
| 26:34 | · | by John philson but created in his honor in 1884 nearly 100 years after his death |
| 26:43 | · | what details were couched and what truths made it to the light of day is a |
| 26:49 | · | matter of controversy and conspiracy discussions |
| 26:54 | · | some gates were made for keeping things out while others to keep things in |
| 27:00 | · | some say the gates of proper institutions keep bad information from the public |
| 27:06 | · | others say we should be allowed what's available and make our own conclusions |
| 27:13 | · | and there was much more to consider in the form of an ancient text translated |
| 27:18 | · | from Delaware Indians |
| 27:24 | · | in 1820 two years after George Rogers Clark passed away Dr Ward treated a |
| 27:31 | · | Native American from the Delaware tribe the Delaware or Lenape man provided Dr |
| 27:38 | · | Ward with curious pieces of wood they had carved and painted symbols on the |
| 27:44 | · | surface in 1822 French researcher botanist an |
| 27:51 | · | expert on ancient cultures Constantine Samuel rafanesque obtained these |
| 27:57 | · | petroglyphs and began deciphering their meaning |
| 28:02 | · | he completed a detailed translation by 1836 and published a book of the |
| 28:08 | · | findings called the American nations these petroglyphs known as the Whalum |
| 28:16 | · | olum detailed the ancient history of the Delaware people and not only that the |
| 28:22 | · | story of the White Indians it confirmed everything that Clark Harrison and Moore had told John philson |
| 28:30 | · | ancient white people that were murdered along the Ohio River |
| 28:37 | · | for over 100 years this book was accepted by educational institutions as |
| 28:43 | · | an accurate assessment of Native American culture it even detailed crossing of the Bering |
| 28:51 | · | Strait to North America from Asia in the 1950s the Indiana Historical |
| 28:59 | · | Society with funding from Eli Lilly Jr edited and republished rafanesque work |
| 29:05 | · | calling it a worthy subject for students of Aboriginal culture |
| 29:12 | · | Eli Lilly had spent decades researching Indiana's ancient past he worked with |
| 29:18 | · | Glenn black to excavate the angel Mound site at Evansville and other sites of |
| 29:23 | · | antiquity he thoroughly believed the Whalum olum to be genuine |
| 29:29 | · | [Music] but later Scholars strongly criticized the work from various angles calling it |
| 29:36 | · | an outright fraud either purposely done or translated with bad information given |
| 29:42 | · | to the author however many researchers including |
| 29:48 | · | Delaware descendants today support its authenticity |
| 29:54 | · | laying in the balance of the prince madok Legend was the Brandenburg Stone |
| 30:03 | · | at Brandenburg Kentucky Craig Casillas had spent over 50 years trying to find |
| 30:09 | · | anyone that could read the strange Stone found on his property |
| 30:15 | · | in 1965 Craig entrusted John Whitfield with the stone |
| 30:22 | · | as the Meade County Library trustee John felt it had historic significance and |
| 30:29 | · | the eyes of an expert could answer many questions the Smithsonian was contacted an |
| 30:36 | · | archaeologist were invited to examine it by 1973 the professional consensus it |
| 30:46 | · | was not writing at all but natural weathering |
| 30:51 | · | the stone remained at the Meade County Library even if it was natural weathering it still had historical |
| 30:58 | · | significance for Brandenburg but the story was far from being over |
| 31:06 | · | in 1995 it was loaned to the Falls of the Ohio museum at Clarksville Indiana |
| 31:12 | · | not far from George Rogers Clark's home site and Sand Island itself |
| 31:20 | · | in 1998 British researchers Alan Wilson and brim blackett translated the stone |
| 31:27 | · | not without controversy they decoded it using a translation |
| 31:34 | · | system developed by Edward Williams in the 1800s it was known as coil Brin |
| 31:42 | · | with that in hand the stone said towards strength divide the land we are spread |
| 31:48 | · | over purely between Offspring and wisdom it was both obscure and definitive |
| 31:55 | · | perhaps describing ancient settlement along the river by an ancient Welsh |
| 32:01 | · | Prince and his followers but the translation was clouded by |
| 32:07 | · | Edward Williams himself born in 1747 Williams had founded a |
| 32:13 | · | Welsh secret society he used his knowledge of Welsh language |
| 32:19 | · | an ancient Druid culture to create the coil brand translator |
| 32:26 | · | members of his esoteric Welsh secret society used it to create secret |
| 32:32 | · | messages while he considered it derived from ancient Welsh and Druid language |
| 32:37 | · | others called it a completely made-up language at best a few hundred years old |
| 32:46 | · | While others said the Brandenburg Stone was in fact ancient and the coil brand |
| 32:52 | · | translator had done its job 1999 the Falls of the Ohio museum |
| 32:59 | · | presented an exhibit about Ohio River Legends which included the Brandenburg |
| 33:06 | · | Stone the displays also spoke of other unusual |
| 33:11 | · | finds including numerous Roman coins found in Kentucky and Indiana |
| 33:18 | · | for many Southern Indiana people they had heard about Prince madok and the |
| 33:23 | · | Rose Island Castle from childhood the exhibit brought the legend back to life |
| 33:29 | · | but it didn't stay there in 2000 it was moved to the Charlestown |
| 33:36 | · | Clark County Public Library where the journals of General Clark were once |
| 33:41 | · | located but in 2012 it made its way back to |
| 33:47 | · | Brandenburg where it started its long journey providing people with questions |
| 33:52 | · | and not many answers it resides in a special room at the |
| 33:59 | · | Meade County Museum in a place of honor it has its own display case and |
| 34:05 | · | overlooks the river a place that's presented so many Unsolved Mysteries |
