Dear Steve,

I appreciated reading your article on the Decalogue Stone in New Mexico.  Are there any efforts to preserve the area as an archaeological park?  Please let me know.  Thanks.

Dear Tom,
 
There is an effort to try and preserve and protect the Los Lunas inscription, but that effort is underfunded. The valuable artifact was vandalized in the recent past. In today’s evolution-based, politically-correct society, authorities are not very interested in preserving artifacts of the ancient world which lend graphic support to biblical narratives. Those who would like to assist in efforts to preserve the Los Lunas inscriptions (or even eventually create an Interpretive Center for it) are urged to contact Douglas Jones, the President of The New Mexico Epigraphic Society, at
