Plus future guides to my recent discoveries in Northeast Georgia, the Track Rock Terrace Complex, Etowah Mounds and the Coosawattee River Archaeological Zone.
The Nacoochee Valley-Helen Area is the largest, most densely occupied archaeological zone, north of Mexico. It has been continuously occupied by humans from the Ice Age to the present. In fact, it is very difficult to find a location that is not an archaeological site. Most of Helen, GA is built upon archaeological sites.
The Helen-Nacoochee Valley Area receives 3 1/2 million visitors a year. Alpine Helen is Georgia’s No. 3 tourist attraction. There are four state parks and one state historic site in the vicinity of the Valley. This is the ONLY guide published for the Valley’s historic and archaeological sites, yet not a single store or state facility sells the booklet. Its the weird politics of our times, but I am certain there is someone out there, who is primarily interested in making profits.
The soft-bound booklet contains 48 full-color pages, printed on glossy white paper. There are approximately 200 hundred original virtual reality images, maps and photos in the booklet. The first part of the booklet contains descriptions of the archaeological investigations in the Valley by five famous archaeologists. The remainder of the book consists of descriptions of all officially designated archaeological sites in the Valley, accompanies by driving directions.
This booklet retails from the publisher for $18 + shipping. Bulk wholesale orders from the publisher will be awarded substantial bulk discounts. Thus, if ordered in bulk the retailer could expect to make a fair profit, if the book was sold for a price from $20-$24. I am compensated by royal checks for all my books by the publisher.

Thank you sir! Now this book is not about my discoveries, but only the officially designated sites in the Georgia State Archaeological Index. There is nothing controversial about the book. I am working on a separate book on the sites that I found with LIDAR.

Thank you for the information. I have designed a couple of buildings in Clayton. My favorite was the conversion of an old Ford dealership into Clayton Pharmacy and Soda Fountain. They did real well at first, then seemed to not recover from the Pandemic. A wholesale-internet retail drug company bought the building from the owner.

Scholars embedded in old paradigms absolutely do not want anything published that even suggests the Maya/Aztec/Central American influence in the southeastern states. The government (USFS) banned two of my booklets simply because I suggested such an influence related to a petroglyph found in a rock shelter where I live – Powell County and the Red River Gorge area of KY. Keep up the good work. I’m an old 93 year old codger still fighting the establishment. Alan

There is nothing about the Mayas in this booklet, although actually, “Chattahoochee,” “Sautee” and “Chote” are Maya words. The booklet contains summaries of the archaeological reports for officially designated archaeological sites in the Valley, plus directions on how to get to the sites. No, the problem is that I am not a member of the Republican Party. The stupid people of course don’t as companies based elsewhere about their politics, but it makes them feel like bidshots to bare local citizens from making a living.
