Interestingly enough I've always heard it called a Native American burial ground. Almost sounds more mysterious that way.

Do not interrupt me with your outdated, racist assumptions! Another great one. You are on a roll, Scott!

But....I thought that "The details are not important!"

October 24, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJack

That was literally laugh out loud funny!

Immigrant Indian burial grounds do sound less mysterious...

"Shallow graveyard". I love it!

ROTFL: "If they all died, who buried them?"
Genius!

"Bereaved, but budget-conscious"
You never cease to amaze me, Scott!

I'm half Inuit half and gwichin ( Indian )and it's not racist to say Indian.

Head on Collision with Columbus! Brilliant!

They actually have a native american burial ground in a graveyard in Moundsville WV. I guess they built the graveyard around the burial ground.

Story telling jazz hands!

Couldn't we just call it an Ancient American burial ground?

October 25, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJohn

The Native Americans buried them of course, face down so they would be looking towards their home country.

Okay! So it was an ancient indian ash pit! Can I go on please?

it's weird... people of mixed Native American ancestry I know hate the term "Indian" while full blooded ancestry hate the term "Native American"

I love this comic, man. I almost never comment, but I've been reading for a long time now (thanks to Wil Wheaton's post about this in his blog). You're brilliant.

Those darn objecting teens nowadays, always rain on the parade of a good composite scary story ! Love the recycled Scott poses such as the classic "Pointy handed Scott" but my favorite is "Jazzy Hands of Fury!" of panel 4, albeit mirror imaged ! Great Strip !

yeah then who burried them, or failed to cremate them? probably the owner of the local motel , Mr. Pattell.
