New Equinox Features Discovered at Clarke County Solstice Site
Remarkable discoveries are reported this week from the archeology team studying the 12,000 year old Spout-Run Paleoindian site found in Clarke County, VA in 2009. The Department of Historic Resources added the Paleo-site to the Virginia Landmarks Register as #44CK151 last year (Nov. 4, 2011). This week, just days before the Autumnal Equinox which occurs Saturday, Sept. 22, the team discovered a new solar alignment with a triangular rock formation.
On Wednesday (Sept 19), after the team took this year’s photos of the Equinox in alignment with concentric rings on the Paleoindian site, they visited a nearby triangular site, the land owner discovered last year. On an elevated partial nearby, the triangular rock configuration also aligns with the Equinox.
