Ten years ago, I received an image of a medallion found at Nan Madol in Pohnpei and I posted:

“After much research, he found out that it bears much similarity to a symbol associated with Mu” and asked what I thought.”

Pohnpei Pendant / Medallion

I looked through my great-grandfather’s materials and found nothing resembling the image and asked readers to send an email if they recognized the image.

Fast forward to 2023 and I received an email from Mariel Legria Sumallo (mariel.sumallo25@gmail.com):

I have read your post about Nan Madol and a symbol found there.

I am from the Philippines, from an Island that faces the Pacific Ocean – Eastern Samar.

Part of our tradition and written history attest of the arrival people from the Pacific. My village called Carolina, holds a tradition that a Princess arrived around 1628 and helped the locals during an epidemic.

We have some remilar images from the archaological finds from our island.

Subsequently he sent some images from Eastern Samar archaeological finds:

Eastern Samar is about 2300 miles (3700 km) from Nan Madol:

Whether or not there is a connection between the image sent in 2013 and the ones sent in 2023, I’ll leave it to the experts to decide.
If you have an opinion send an email and we’ll keep searching for answers.

btw – The earlier image is of modern design and not an ancient artifact.
