A tablet found in 1939 at the Slack Farm site in Union County, Kentucky, is described as depicting a monk- or crusader-like figure with armor or chain mail. Slack Farm is a Caborn-Welborn village on the Ohio River floodplain near Uniontown, occupied from AD 1400–1700. The video compares its cross-hatching and rounded heads with Mount Piska and archaic artifacts, then argues that the tablet may be archaic or Sumerian and that its cross may indicate Christian presence in pre-Columbian North America. The site’s documented archaeology does not establish those older-date or Christian interpretations.
