Rockwall Links For Hear The Watchmen

3/29/2017

There is an ancient buried city near Dallas.

It was enclosed by a 50 foot high wall roughly 3.5 by 5.5 miles.

After I visited the site in 1999, they found stairs that suggested the inhabitants were 7 - 9 feet tall. They also found a rock with a couple of metal rings embedded in it. What I found interesting about the metal alloy is that it contained tin. The closest tin mines to Dallas are located in Alaska and the UK.

Currently there's no site to visit. The dig was done down one side of the wall. After a rain, the soil expanded and collapsed the wall. They covered up the site and were not able to afford another dig.

​Here are some links I've collected about Rockwall:

Tidbit - there are other walls east of Rockwall

Some early history


I've only briefly looked at these YouTube videos, but they appear to relate what I saw and information gathered from those actively part of the dig (and then some):
