Mystery Stone from the Shenandoah

By Michael A Susko

A beautiful tablet-like mystery stone has been found by the Shenandoah River, near Berryville, Virginia. Underneath its brown-orange patina, peck-marked shapes reveal a crystalline heartstone underneath and intriguing designs. Experts have differed as to how these designs were formed, so the author invites you to take a tour of the stone and make your own judgement. He illustrates the aesthetic nature of the designs and how they resonate with Eastern Woodland cosmology of early America. This includes the presence of a pervasive spiritual energy, the tension and complementariness of twins, and the archetypes of avian-man, earth mother, and skeletal shaman. The stone, with its images supported by commentary, shows an alternative way to view the universe, and one that can enrich our lives.
