I removed the 'esoteric' portion of this article as it seemed to have more to do with MSU (as referenced in the article) than with the Licking River, after thouroughly attempting to clean up the article. Here is my final revision before I removed it all together:

A "sacred geometry" in the shape of the county is suggested by the interior angles involved with most masonic square and compass symbols. Rowan Co., by using the "Licking River" for a ~45 degree angle, is aligned with the north most point of Kentucky. By placing a square and compass overlaid on a properly sized map with the pivot on Rome, Ohio the shape of the county is masked out and the compass points run past Mt. Olympus in Bath county and also towards London and Whitesburgh {{citation needed}. A esoteric, Sacred Geometry design on the MSU campus is suggested by the black marble obelisk with an esoteric natural number "13" in the middle section— its' placement is roughly in the center of the county much like the "G" of the Masonic square and compass {{citation needed}. One local researcher claims documents in the university archives suggest that the original teaching college was started by nuns (or perhaps jesuits), was 13 buildings laid out in a crescent moon pattern {{citation needed}. Today, the curved streets and sidewalks resemble a crescent moon on the main campus: A cemetery and Catholic church at its' base, and a music and Freemason confederate Brekinridge communications school buildings at the top {{citation needed}. The county also had a series of adult schools called "Moonlight schools" (in part) because the classes were taught on moonlit evenings so as to provide light to travel, to be "enlightened" {{citation needed}. (As an aside note; the lunar year has 13 cycles as do women with regular monthy cycles.) Numerous Confederate Kentuckian freemasons are recognised on building names such as Breckinridge, of course Morehead and others. The first concrete highway in Kentucky was laid (Circa 1909?) between Morehead and Maysville (county seat of Mason County) ending at main street (now Fleming Ave.) ~600 yards past the entrance to the original Catholic hospital front, and it helped to facilitate the transportation of pigs to the Ohio River and down to "Proctor and Gamble" in Cincinnati for fat for their soap products as well as meat. P&G ironically or coincidentally has a symbolic moon and 13stars in one of its logos that is not seen much after it became associated with occult rumors. Occult rumors have been passed around for years by the locals with some jusification given the occasional electives in witchcraft and gargoyals adorning some buildings as well as the general attitude from the alleged sofisticates crowd that the facility is surrounded by the "ignorance" of eastern Kentucky.

Devil's River? edit

"The Licking River is refered to by some as a "Devils river" because it flows north like only a few rivers in the world (such as the Nile), although it actually flows northwest." I searched for information on who calls the Licking River, or any river, a Devils river, and could not find anything. Who are these "some" people? The Devil's river wikipedia page is hard to believe, and is linked to only from the Licking River page. Pfly 03:14, 6 October 2006 (UTC)Reply


Question on Licking River edit

Let's say my expertise is not geography. I have a question for someone. We have records that show my great-great-grandfather stumbled on horseback and drowned crossing the Licking River going into Preble Ohio, in 1817.

Does anyone know what county that would be in Kentucky, which crosses over into Preble county, Ohio?

I am trying to create a genealogy that makes some sense. Both my parents died (my mom just a month ago), and I have a pile of papers, documents and photos and positive deguerre types dating back 150 years, or more. I realize this will be quite a chore, matching those with locations, and public records. I do know that his funeral and buriel, including whiskey for the company cost $7.00.

I don't know if this in any way will help the article, but I would surely appreciate some input from the experts.

Disambiguation edit

I just cleaned up all the pages still pointing to Licking River which is now a disambiguation page between the 2 rivers in Kentucky and Ohio. Most of them were for the KY one, but feel free to check it out to see if I messed any of them up Regoarrarr 01:19, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
