Copper Country

3000 years before Rome was founded,

Michigan copper trade

to overseas portshad already begun.

Picked up copper17 tons

Weighs equal to all artifacts in US

ROMEwas built in

750 BC!

Ancient miners from overseas were digging Michigan’s almost 100 percent pure copper (and picking up copper float from the soil’s

surface) almost 6,000 years ago

TRADE GOODS TO EXCHANGE FOR COPPER

They came in fast ocean going ships

They may have carried the loadhome on big rafts

(Sketched by Spanish, west coast of America, 1500s)

When Chief Joseph of the Nez Pearce

Indians said,

“From where the sun now stands,

I will fight no more forever”

U.S. cavalry officers found in his medicine bag a small clay tablet

with cuneiform writing

The cuneiform is of a style that identifies it from 3000 years ago in what is now

Baghdad, Iraq!!It cannot be a modern forgery.

Why?Because

cuneiform was not deciphered

until the 1930s!!!

Ancient miners used fire to heat copper nuggets that were too huge to move, then dashed water on them to make them more vulnerable to hammerstones.

Bronze is 90 percent

copper with an

admixture of10 percent

tin, but needs high temperature

to anneal

These lance points,

found inLake

Superiormay bebronze,

which means that

a hightemperature

furnacewas nearby

Where did the Michigan copper go in those ancient days?

Where was the source of the copper that fueled  the Bronze Age?

MICHIGAN->->CYPRUS

17 tons

Weighs equal to all artifacts in US

The Michigan copper could not have stayed in the Americas

BECAUSE:

Remember that one stone equal to all the bronze artifacts in US?

17 tons

Weighs equal to all artifacts in US

The Michigan copper could not have stayed in the Americas becausethe amount of Indian trade copper in collections, ADDED TO the estimated 20 to 30 tons that may still lie undiscovered, DO NOT ACCOUNT FOR 1 PERCENT of the missing Michigan copper.

Where did it go?

17 tons

Weighs equal to all artifacts in US

The Michigan copper could not have stayed in the Americas

A billion tons of copper went to civilizations around the world.
