The peer review process doesn't guarantee Truth with a capital T. In fact, much research shows that the peer review system accomplishes the opposite. Here's a quote from Drummond Rennie, organizer of the International Congress on Peer Review and Biomedical Publication:

Please give me a citation that shows De Soto ever stepped foot in Mexico. Yes,I know he was in Nicaragua and Peru. That's where he made his wealth to finance the La Florida expedition. But I'm pretty sure Cortez would have had him killed had he even thought of crossing into his domain. Conquistadors were funny that way. In fact, I just grabbed my copy of David Ewing Duncan's De Sot

Had I posted those same side by side comparisons, every debunker on this board would have screamed "they look NOTHING like the real dog you're comparing them to."
In fact, my Bull Creek Dog Pot and Chihuahua photo are closer in appearance to each other than any of the dogs in your flikr example (except perhaps B- Xolo).
Oh, and where's your citation that the tlachichi is

Wow Bernard, my little ole paper inspired you to do all this research? But you seem to miss an important point: Techichis are well represented in the pottery of Colima in west Mexico but they don't have the cranial features of the dog represented on the dog pots in Georgia.
But interestingly, the dog pots in Georgia have the same cranial and muzzle shape of the apple head variety of Chihu

For some reason I can't reply to your original post so I'm posting it here:

Nope, doesn't have the apple dome skull or short and slightly upturned snout. That's the most distinguishing feature of apple head chihuahuas and the Georgia dog pots.

Yep, it was Charles Hudson in his book Knights of Spain, Warriors of the Sun. I shook my head in disbelief when I read it. Had he never been to the Columbus Museum and seen these pots???? These pots have been around for 70 years. It's just surprising he didn't know about them.
Oh, and in regards to the Aztlan "chihuahua not a native dog"...well, that presents a major proble

I believe all of his men came from Spain and Cuba so they wouldn't necessarily have seen a chihuahua. De Soto himself never stepped foot in Mexico. So it's possible no one had ever seen a chihuahua.

I've actually seen Xolos with hair and you basically can't tell them apart from carolina dogs.

Actually, the curly tails and pointed ears are not the most important aspect of the breed standard. It's the round bulbous skull and the snout that makes it fit the AKC breed standard for the apple head chihuahua. no other dog in the americas has that specific trait. (Not even all chihuahuas....deer head chihuahuas don't have it and can't compete in AKC shows).

Kat: "Chihuahuas aren't barkless"
Yep, that's the biggest problem and I never could resolve it to my satisfaction. There is only one barkless dog in the Americas and it is the Techichi which was also fattened up to be eaten and is also represented in its fattened form in pottery in Colima, west Mexico.
But the dog pots in Georgia don't look like Techichis. The Georg

Well my LostWorlds.org articles are not tourism articles. But the stuff on examiner has to have a tourism slant or I get scolded by the editors. The stuff on examiner is meant for a completely different audience and isn't meant to provide the level of proof that my lostworlds.org articles try to provide. that's why i'm always quite amused when i read the comments and people are ups

I'll try to get to those comments Bernard. Every time I tried to access this site at that time it was down and I simply gave up out of complete total frustration. Trust me, having you have the last word was never my intention.

Hermione in his all knowing wisdom writes: " contrary to what you state, the symbolism found in such images is largely based on forms found in nature. There is no mention of stars."
Well, Hermione, you might want to spend a little more time reading the book you quote because if you did you would find on page 75 the following: "In Figure 6-5...the sun seems to be in the center of

If you want to discuss the Maya Blue discovery (which, by the way, was not my discovery...I was sharing an online news story) then I think the appropriate thing to do, bernard,is to start a new thread. This thread is about Mayan glyphs on Swift Creek pottery. Since you chose to make no comment on this glyph research then I suppose this means you support my findings. Thanks for your support bernar

My latest research shows that the symbols on Swift Creek pottery are identical to Mayan glyphs. This pottery was produced in the same area where the Hitchiti language was spoken. I've found multiple Mayan loan words in this language. The Swift Creek pottery dates to the same time period as the arrival of corn in the Lake Okeechobee area of Florida. The Hitchiti migration legend has them arri

Yeah, I had problems accessing the site pretty much every time I tried. But then when I finally got here I realized I was already registered from around a year ago. I think y'all were discussing my "Were Creek Indians From West Mexico?" article and I saw a lot of incoming traffic from this domain, so I came to check it out.

I agree. As a former tv news cameraman I can tell you this is definitely not a "fake" video. But it's definitely an out-of-focus bear with a salmon in its mouth.

As a former cameraman, my first thought was "bear with salmon in its mouth." The "trunk" simply doesn't move like an elephant's trunk should move. And when it turns and looks at the camera it clearly has a bear head.

Just thought I'd share my latest research on possible Mexican connections to the southeastern U.S.:
"The origins of the Chihuahua have been lost in the mists of time yet new research reveals they once roamed the southern states of Georgia and Tennessee. The discovery was made by analyzing dog effigy pots unearthed in Georgia and Tennessee to determine the most likely breed they repre

It's not a problem that you re-posted my Atzlan post. You definitely have my permission. I saw quite a few visitors coming to my website from this forum today so I jumped on over to see what was going on. Thanks for the interest in my website LostWorlds.org.
