The Low 1 Tablet.

Thirteen (13) Adena tablets have been discovered so far, the Wilmington Tablet is one of them, all come from mounds in Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. There is apparently an exception with one of the Adena stone tablets, the Low 2 Tablet, which seem relegated to a different status, probably as a pseudo-tablet. Therefore, confusion on the number of tablets is evident with the figure shifting from 13 to 14. The Adena tablets founded so far are:

1. Wilmington Tablet, found at Clinton County, Ohio. Avian creature in mirror negative reflex.

2. Gaitskill Clay Tablet, found at Montgomery County, Kentucky. Avian figure with join dots in four "world" quarters composition.

3. Gaitskill Stone Tablet, found at Montgomery County, Kentucky. Tarantula figure with mirror face feature.

4. Mm6 Wright Tablet, found at Montgomery County, Kentucky. Five separate figures: raptorial bird, serpentine horizontal body, winglike serpentine, serpentine leg and missing wing.

5. Berlin Tablet, found at Vinton County, Ohio. Bow-tie-shaped thick plate obverse face with incised abstract bird.

6. Cincinnati Tablet, found at Mound Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. Faces, wing, claws, body and tail.

7. Kiefer Tablet, found at Miami County, Ohio. It is covered with figures, two claw feet, and complete tail. May represent a bird's tail.

8. Lakin A Tablet, found at Mason County, West Virginia. Depict six separate figures: human head, heads of raptorial bird, human hands, elaborate leg, tail, arms and claws.

9. Lakin B Tablet, found at Mason County, West Virginia. Depict 8 distinct units: human face, serpentine figure, raptorial tail, 7 loops.

10. Low 1 Tablet, found at Wood County, West Virginia. Two human full-front faces and bird forms in mirror image.

11. Meigs Tablet, found at Meigs County, Ohio. Obverse covered with figures, reverse with eight grooves. Two heads, two wings, two claw feet, two tail portions, and two sided body.

12. Allen Tablet, found at Miegs County, Ohio. Phallic and Vulva figures in six concentric circles, arranged in two rows of three, explicit of procreation and ancestry.

13. Waverly-Hurst Tablet, found at Pike County, Ohio. Engraved side depicts five separate raptorial and serpentine figures very much like in the Wright Tablet.
