As if the animal effigy in Central Ohio wasn't sensational enough by itself, there is a huge snake effigy just above it! I've been fortunate to have made a number of important archaeological discoveries in the past 18 years, but my discovery of the animal and snake effigies in Ross/Pickaway counties this year rank up there near the top! If this really is a prehistoric effigy, it's got to be one of the world's largest!
Here are its measurements: snake, nose to tail (southeast direction) is 1,248 feet, top bend to down bend on the east is 704 feet, and down to where the snake tail seems to reach the animal's back, 919 feet. These measurements are possible thanks to Goggle's toolkit that includes a ruler that adjusts to the particual scale you are viewing.
