Some of the finds from Missouri Stone Henge :)

[j.d. in the usa]

here is where i've been detecting for the last few days, Its a huge area I have many finds from this spot there are over 50 large pillars in the area I will post post the finds when Im done detecting this spot because of so many good finds . Also once again there is absolutly nothing on the topo's for this area. I believe it was for a bridge, the pics I made are only part of the features. they go up and down 2 hills and part of an old road with lots of wagon wheels is also left there. jd

Great finds!!!, and great looking site.
Finding the spoons at a bridge seems alittle odd to me. I was thinking the spot might have been a picnic area as well...
Definitely looks to have had some trafic...
Good luck & Happy hunting~

I bet Leons right. Must have been a huge gathering spot years ago. Congrats on your discovery.

That is a really great site JD. The finds are incredible for in the middle of knowwhere. the Object at the bottom of the pic in the center of the second pic..looks like a crown or some end to a spoon with a stone in it. ??Also this looks like possible an early CCC project or corp of engineers work. The Wagon wheels throw that theory off though. Was this at one time a river bed and the Corp rerouted the river and so the Bridge became obsolete? And is there any timber from the bridge around or raised Trestle from a railroad.? One more thing JD. What did you ever find out about your Spanish Seal? HH

we were out detecting in some woods and we found a small stream in the middle of no where that was filled with old glass and pottry shards so we followed the stream for about 1 1/2 -2 miles and found the giant pillars, there is a very pretty valley surrounded on all sides buy hills you can see 2 old roads that come along side of the pillars, I believe it was an old bridge up on top of the hill you can still see the old road leading to it with wagon wheels and old barrel rings all over the place. I think the small valley was used as a picnic grove most of the finds have been there. the finds are amazing from this place so far, i took my buddy steve yesterday and right away he found an 1899 barber half dollar! boy was he excited. Im gonna hit library today to see if I can find out more info on the area. jd

Hey, JD. I do recognize the objects in the lower right hand corner of the relics' picture. It's pieces of a harmonica reed. I found one a few weeks ago. You can see how the rectangular holes gradually get smaller and smaller for the different pitches.

Good Luck,
Haupin

Wonder if that might have been the site of an old "Grist" Mill? Have you seen any sign's of a large round stone? Where about's are you in MO. ?
