"Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

I'm sure some of you have heard of this place, called Mystery Hill, often referred to as America's Stonehenge. I grew up about a mile away from the place, and after searching Google Earth for random things in my old home town, I stumbled upon this. I've marked out the actual Mystery Hill location, what intrigues me is the "asterisk" like formation in the wooded area next to the site. Not sure what's going on there, but it definitely doesn't look too natural to me. I don't know, I could be wrong, let me know what you guys thing.

I for one haven't heard of Mystery Hill...but I plan on googling it right after this post....The design in the timber is very interesting....I wonder what is in the "nucleus". Thanks for the intriguing picture...

Change...I also used to live near by there in NH and Mass and always had a curiousity about the place...As far as I know no one has been able to deinitivetily say what it is etc. Wasn't detecting back when I lived there but think it would be an awesome place to detect if permission could be secured. Am off to read Gypsy's link and refresh my memory about the place....Keep us posted on what you find out and if you can get permission to hunt there.

Friends in another detecting forum said they had looked into this site and inquired with the powers to be there about detecting the site....He said they are still laughing hysterically at him.....

I'm not too worried about it, I've gotta do a little research about who actually owns the land where the "asterisk" is, but I'm fairly certain I already know who it is, and it IS NOT the same people who own the Mystery Hill site. I'm not interested in detecting on the Mystery Hill site, as I've been there probably 100 times over the last 25 years. I'm more interested in exploring the other land there. I'll be sure to let you guys know what I come up with as far as ownership and permission to check it out.

Hi Change, look at the Astronomical alignment map towards the bottom of the page. Look familiar?

I'd love to detect that area, thanks for sharing.

Lets see if I can add that map here?

Very interesting...tell us more about this place when you get a chance.

Re: "Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

Change....hopefully the spot you wanna detect is privately owned and they will give you permission, for that would be a place with tons of potential!!! Good luck and keep us posted on what more you find out and how you make out on getting permission.

Change,
That looks like an interesting site; hope you get to hunt it!

As far as Mystery hill goes.............I think it's a crock!
Been there, and thought it was just an old foundation site; leftovers of Old farm buildings.
But, that's just my (and husband's) opinion

Re: "Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

that is incredible.looks too symmetrical to be run off or logging trails.

the mystery hill site from what I remember had modern rearranging altering it's original look.the pyramids
of giza was altered too in the remote past(some theorise it may had a gold cap stone).the face stone was whitish (I forget the name of the material).

Imagine for a moment that the center of the starburst is a repository of ancient records,and the powers that be whisk it away to a big warehouse like the ark in Indiana jones.I have such crazy imagination don't I?

Re: "Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

Yes , I have a book around here somewhere , that has alot of stuff on that place . I'll try to dig it up ! As I remember the book has many photos in it , there is a granite slab that the archeo people think was used for sacrifices or something . interesting place !

It is a very lazy way to keep track of the discussion - since all I then have to do is click on "replies to your posts" (see above) and any new posts in that thread show up. It saves hunting down the exact thread or having to make a "bookmark" in order to find it again easily. It also shows just how lazy a guy can get!

Re: "Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

i think i saw something on tv once where you stop your car and put it in neutral , then the car rolls uphill. is this the same place?

 

[simonds]

Re: "Mystery Hill" site in Salem, NH

The place where your car seems to roll uphill is near Olean, N.Y. I can look up the exact location if anyone wants it.
