Summary[edit]

English: The Bat Creek inscription as recorded by Cyrus Thomas in 1894. The inscription was found on a stone excavated by a Smithsonian mound survey team in the Little Tennessee Valley (Loudon County, Tennessee), in the southeastern United States. Proponents of Pre-Columbian transatlantic contact argue that the inscription is actually Paleo-Hebrew.
