In 1991 while visiting a rock yard in Carrera, Italy, Francis
Jansen found herself drawn to a large piece of marble. She saw the
image of a Native American man lying on the ground and felt
compelled to release from the rock the image contained within. Nine
months later she completed "Transformation Through Forgiveness."
The monument symbolizes and acknowledges the significant cultural
impact that our Native American heritage has brought us. The plaque
attached to the monument's base reads:
This is a tribute to the Native American peoples and stands
symbolically for the healing of all wounds, be they physical,
emotional, mental, spiritual or environmental.
"Transformation Through Forgiveness" is a call to all
Humankind for reconciliation of man's inhumanity to man, &
stands in acknowledgment in celebration of the universal
understanding, “One whole nation, One whole world.”
May the eagle soar to ever greater heights and envelope human
kind into the profoundness of our higher destiny.

The cache container is a nano so bring your own writing
implement. (And a pair of tweezers.) I had to move the cache to a
nearby item that can also lead to transformation -- but of a
different kind.
