Coordinates[edit]

I found the coordinates by Google Mapping "Stallings Island, GA", which brought up a map of Stallings Island Rd northwest of Augusta. Other information from the search results told me that Stallings Island would be in about this area. I made an educated guess to get about the right area and added coordinates to display the map. --Dudemanfellabra (talk) 04:06, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to add references to wiki articles properly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.220.125.22 (talk) 17:46, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Donkeys[edit]

There are "wild" donkeys on the island. According to a BBC Youtube video, they were put there to protect the sherds (which seems strange). 164.47.179.32 https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-65377861 (talk) 01:15, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that is significant enough to be included in the article, based on just a 43 second news bit. Donald Albury 13:11, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
