Rescuing and Digitally Preserving the Cultural Heritage of the Great Smoky Mountains | The Signal: Digital Preservation In western North Carolina, in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, rests a boulder covered in prehistoric petroglyphs<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroglyph>attributed to the Native Americans who have resided in the area for thousands of years. Experts debate the specific origin and meaning of the glyphs but the general interpretation describes Judaculla, a human-like giant with supernatural powers, who protects the Cherokee Nation and the land that nourishes and supports them. This cultural record of Cherokee society, called Judaculla Rock <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaculla_Rock>, has been accessible for millennia because it is recorded in stone. http://1.usa.gov/1gl1cZD Source: http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2014/01/rescuing-and-digitally-preserving-the-cultural-heritage-of-the-great-smoky-mountains/ See if people are clicking on this link: http://1.usa.gov/1gl1cZD+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA IGP [log in to unmask] Dallas, Texas Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
