Investing in Truth: The Heartland's Quest for Ancient America's Secrets

The Heartland Research Group is all about diving into the cool mysteries of ancient American civilizations. But, hold up! We've noticed some confusion lately, so let's set the record straight about what we're up to, especially when it comes to raising funds for the Phoenicia project.

We're on a mission to figure out the secrets of ancient America! From digging in the dirt to studying ancient stuff, exploring cool places, and even analyzing old languages, we're all about discovering the awesomeness of ancient cultures. We want everyone, no matter where they're from, to join us in learning about our shared history.

Now, about Phoenicia – it's not just a ship; it's a time machine! Philip Beale's Phoenician Ship Expedition recreated a wild 6th-century BC voyage, showing off how ancient sailors rocked the seas. Sailing across the Atlantic and beyond, this journey proves these ancient ships were top-notch. Preserving Phoenicia isn't a detour for us – it's a way to get hands-on with the cool tech ancient sailors used.

Phoenicia needs a lot of TLC, and our crew is on it! We've brought the replica ship to Montrose, Iowa, and our awesome team is working hard to put it back together. This is our way of keeping the spirit of ancient seafarers alive and showing off their cool artifacts.

We're not some big, fancy organization. Nope, we run on the power of volunteers – regular folks who believe in what we're doing. People from all walks of life, including different faith groups, have given over 6,000 hours of their time. Plus, many awesome individuals have chipped in money to help us out. We want you to know exactly where your support goes – straight into our research, preservation projects, and rebuilding Phoenicia.

In a nutshell, the Heartland Research Group is on a mission to uncover the secrets of ancient America. The Phoenicia project isn't a distraction – it's like an extra level in our mission, helping us understand ancient tech and cultures even better. Your donations are like superhero fuel for our research and projects. We promise to keep exploring, learning, and sharing the mind-blowing history of ancient America. Let's team up and dive deep into the awesome civilizations that once thrived right here in the heartland!
