These ancient American relics remain unexplained.
A centuries-old stone wall, stretching for miles; enormous pictures scratched into the ground of a desert; rocks arranged in a circle. You know what these landmarks are, right?
Guess again. Instead of the Great Wall of China or Stonehenge, these are all ancient American ruins and landmarks. The United States is a relative newcomer to the world stage, but there have been people long living on this continent, and they’ve left traces of their presence just as mysterious as those found in other countries.

Number 10: Blackwater Draw.
Archaeology found in New Mexico near the town of Clovis, Blackwater Draw is one of the oldest archaeological sites in the US, with ancient artifacts upward of 12,000 years old being found there. To put that into perspective, that is around the time that mammoths roamed the land and arrows were the apex weaponry of the time.
This area’s claim to fame comes from the Paleoindians and the materials they would use. They had a unique type of projectile point, called the Clovis point, made from a mixture of jasper, obsidian and a few other types of brittle stone; although these arrowheads were very brittle, they were unbelievably sharp. Discovering these allowed archaeologists to date the arrowheads, as well as other artifacts of the find. Over the years there were more items have been found in the area, but the initial discovery of the Clovis arrowheads is still the biggest find in the region.
Today, the area has been made into the museum where you can see the ancient weaponry and admire photos from their discovery.
Number 9: Bighorn Medicine Wheel.
This piece of history is rather interesting for 2 reasons. First, it was supposedly used by American Indians to read the stars. And, second, because there are actually hundreds of Medicine Wheels throughout the US. It is actually quite likely that if you live in the US there is one relatively close to you right now.
What makes the Bighorn Medicine Wheel in Lovell, Wyoming special is that it’s the biggest one found to date, and is also the most studied. That particular wheel has been dated between 300 and 800 years old. These structures got their names from their shape and its uncanny likeliness to a wagon wheel; each of these has a central cairn that is large enough to sit in and spokes leading to an outer circle which also have a few cairns spread out throughout its circumference.
If you sit in the middle and look down at another cairn on the wheel they will lead you to a point on the horizon, archaeoastronomer Jack Eddy has studied these and has concluded that some of these pointed in the direction of the sunset and sunrise during the summer solstice while others point towards significant star alignments.
Number 8: Horseshoe Canyon.
Located in beautiful southern Utah, Horseshoe Canyon is a great place to visit for 2 reasons, if you are a hiking enthusiast, it has an incredible 7 mile hike through Canyonlands National Park. But, more to the point, it also has some of the best examples of Native American cave drawings you will ever find. This is especially impressive when you consider that some of the drawings are said to be among the oldest ever recorded, between 700 and 2000 years old. The most famous point is known as the Great Gallery and is over 200 feet wide and 15 feet high, featuring an array of life size anthropomorphic images as large as 7 feet tall.
To take the hike that will go past the drawings you will need to begin at the Goblin Valley State Park and take the 30 mile drive to the canyon before beginning your 7 mile round trip hike, viewing not only the drawings but all the nature that Utah has to offer.
Number 7: Nash Dinosaur Track Site.
If you want to walk where dinosaurs have walked, maybe even compare your foot size to that of beasts from millions of years ago, then luckily we know just the place you should visit! The Nash Dinosaur Track Site is located in South Hadley, Massachusetts in the Connecticut River Valley area, and is a great place to take your family to experience a piece of ancient history. The first tracks were found here back in 1802 by a farmer’s son named Pliny Moody and were that of a small, long extinct bird.
Although they didn’t know it at the time, that very fossilized footprint, as well as one other, would eventually make their way to Amherst college to be studied, bringing about the interest in the area and leading to the Nash Dinosaur track site being built in 1939…just one mile from the first footprints discovery.
If looking at tracks in the on-site museum and out in the surrounding areas of the park isn’t awesome enough for you then you can always buy your very own dinosaur footprint or fossils at the on-sight gift shop that is guaranteed to give your home that added classy edge that others just don’t have. I need to know, though…would you own your own dinosaur track? Let us know in the comments below!
Number 6: Crystal River Mounds.
This archaeological site is labeled one of America’s longest, continually occupied sites.

How Bighorn Canyon was formed
Learn about the geological forces that shaped Bighorn Canyon, discover the rocks that provide the foundation of Bighorn Canyon and the rock formations above and just beyond the canyon walls, learn about the the role of water in forming the canyon.
Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area on the Montana-Wyoming boundary is a place where sheer cliffs tower 1,000 feet above a ribbon of blue water, where wild horses run free, and is home to the majestic Bighorn Sheep. About one third of the park unit is located on the Crow Indian Reservation. Over 200,000 visitors each year enjoy its natural beauty and the multiple recreational opportunities on offer at Bighorn.
The park, occupying approximately 68,000 acres between the Pryor and Bighorn mountain ranges, was established in 1966 to preserve the area's natural and cultural resources and provide for public enjoyment after Yellowtail Dam was constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) on the Bighorn River. The dam, named after the famous Crow leader Robert Yellowtail, harnesses the waters of the Bighorn River by turning that variable watercourse into Bighorn Lake that extends for approximately 71 miles (114 km) at full pool.
Afterbay Lake located below Yellowtail Dam is a popular spot for trout fishing as well as for viewing ducks, geese and other animals. The Bighorn River below the Afterbay Dam is likewise a world-class trout fishing area. In addition, many archeological and historical resources serve to complement the area's natural features
Bighorn Canyon offers a diverse landscape of forest, mountains, upland prairie, deep canyons, broad valleys, lake and wetlands. Vegetation communities in the park include desert shrubland, juniper woodland, mountain mahogany woodland, sagebrush steppe, basin grassland, riparian, and coniferous woodland. The wildlife is equally diverse including bighorn sheep, wild horses, coyotes, mule deer, snakes, small mammals, mountain lions, bears, and more than 200 bird species. The 39,000-acre Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range, about one-fifth of which lies within Bighorn Canyon NRA, provides habitat for both the majestic Bighorn Sheep and the fabulous Pryor Mountain Wild Horses. Bighorn Canyon is truly one of the most significant natural areas in the United States.
The depth of Bighorn Canyon is approximately 1,000 feet deep at Devil Canyon and 2,500 feet deep on Bull Elk Ridge. Researchers have found Upper Jurassic Period fossils and fossil tracks and bones in the park, and discovered the remains of Pleistocene animals in debris piles at cave entrances. Bighorn Canyon's archeological history includes Bad Pass Trail, which has been used for more than 10,000 years and is marked by 500 rock cairns spread over 13 miles.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Bighorn National Forest is a U.S. National Forest located in northern Wyoming, United States and consists of over 1.1 million acres (4,500 km²). Created as a US Forest Reserve in 1897, it is one of the oldest government-protected forest lands in the U.S. The forest is well east of the continental divide and extends from the Montana border for a distance of 80 miles (130 km) along the spine of the Big Horn Mountains, an outlying mountain range separated from the rest of the Rocky Mountains by Bighorn Basin. Elevations range from 5,000 feet (1,500 m) along the sagebrush and grass-covered lowlands at the foot of the mountains, to 13,189 feet (4,020 m) on top of Cloud Peak, the highest point in the Big Horn Mountains. Around 99% of the land is above 1,500 metres (4,900 ft). The forest is named after the Bighorn River, which is partially fed by streams found in the forest. Streams in the range are fed primarily by snowmelt and snowmelt mixed with driving rainfall.Within the forest is the Cloud Peak Wilderness area in which no motorized or mechanical equipment is allowed. The only access into the 189,000 acre (765 km²) wilderness is on foot or horseback. There are 1,500 miles (2,400 km) of trails in the forest, along with 32 improved campgrounds, lodges, and three scenic vehicular byways. U.S. Route 14 in Wyoming, also known as the Bighorn Scenic Byway, crosses the middle of the 30-mile (48 km) wide forest. The Medicine Wheel Passage (U.S. Highway 14A) crosses in the north passing the Medicine Wheel National Historic Landmark, while the Cloud Peak Skyway (U.S. Route 16) crosses the highest pass in the forest (Powder River Pass 9,677 ft/ 2,950 m) and is located in the southern section of the forest.
The forest headquarters is located in Sheridan, Wyoming. There are local ranger district offices in Buffalo, Lovell, and Sheridan. Visitor centers are located at Burgess Junction and near Shell Falls.

Calling All Cars: Highlights of 1934 / San Quentin Prison Break / Dr. Nitro
The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is the police department of the city of Los Angeles, California.
The LAPD has been copiously fictionalized in numerous movies, novels and television shows throughout its history. The department has also been associated with a number of controversies, mainly concerned with racial animosity, police brutality and police corruption.
radio show Calling All Cars hired LAPD radio dispacher Jesse Rosenquist to be the voice of the dispatcher. Rosenquist was already famous because home radios could tune into early police radio frequencies. As the first police radio dispatcher presented to the public ear, his was the voice that actors went to when called upon for a radio dispatcher role.
The iconic television series Dragnet, with LAPD Detective Joe Friday as the primary character, was the first major media representation of the department. Real LAPD operations inspired Jack Webb to create the series and close cooperation with department officers let him make it as realistic as possible, including authentic police equipment and sound recording on-site at the police station.
Due to Dragnet's popularity, LAPD Chief Parker became, after J. Edgar Hoover, the most well known and respected law enforcement official in the nation. In the 1960s, when the LAPD under Chief Thomas Reddin expanded its community relations division and began efforts to reach out to the African-American community, Dragnet followed suit with more emphasis on internal affairs and community policing than solving crimes, the show's previous mainstay.
Several prominent representations of the LAPD and its officers in television and film include Adam-12, Blue Streak, Blue Thunder, Boomtown, The Closer, Colors, Crash, Columbo, Dark Blue, Die Hard, End of Watch, Heat, Hollywood Homicide, Hunter, Internal Affairs, Jackie Brown, L.A. Confidential, Lakeview Terrace, Law & Order: Los Angeles, Life, Numb3rs, The Shield, Southland, Speed, Street Kings, SWAT, Training Day and the Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour and Terminator film series. The LAPD is also featured in the video games Midnight Club II, Midnight Club: Los Angeles, L.A. Noire and Call of Juarez: The Cartel.
The LAPD has also been the subject of numerous novels. Elizabeth Linington used the department as her backdrop in three different series written under three different names, perhaps the most popular being those novel featuring Det. Lt. Luis Mendoza, who was introduced in the Edgar-nominated Case Pending. Joseph Wambaugh, the son of a Pittsburgh policeman, spent fourteen years in the department, using his background to write novels with authentic fictional depictions of life in the LAPD. Wambaugh also created the Emmy-winning TV anthology series Police Story. Wambaugh was also a major influence on James Ellroy, who wrote several novels about the Department set during the 1940s and 1950s, the most famous of which are probably The Black Dahlia, fictionalizing the LAPD's most famous cold case, and L.A. Confidential, which was made into a film of the same name. Both the novel and the film chronicled mass-murder and corruption inside and outside the force during the Parker era. Critic Roger Ebert indicates that the film's characters (from the 1950s) represent the choices ahead for the LAPD: assisting Hollywood limelight, aggressive policing with relaxed ethics, and a straight arrow approach.
