Turtle symbols, whether made of rock or carved on rocks or trees, are probably the oldest and surest signs of treasure in the area that exist. I would say that your turtle of boulders is such a symbol. The Spanish used them and the Knights of the Golden Circle used them to mark their buried treasure.

TJ is right! You are close to something. Follow the nose. If you don't know what you are looking at send me some pictures pointing the same direction as the nose.

It means nothing. It is simply pareidolia.[h=2][/h]

My fellow KGC treasure hunter Bob Brewer speaks of the importance of turtle and other symbols in this interview when hunting for treasure. He's used these symbols to find over $200,000 in buried treasure.

Shadowy path may lead to treasure

Yeah it is called Mother Nature. Now as a symbol to describe a location with out a written language it would also make sense. I f there was treasure around every rock that mother nature made resemble something else we all would be rich. I have carved on big beech trees as kids as the tree grows do does the carving.After 35 years you can barely make out it out but you can recognize what you wrote. Some are completely ineligible.
When you first carve it it is like putting up a bill board in public.
They called old tree that were bent over Indian trees that is a myth as well.

Elh...if that carving was done say even 20yrs ago.... you'd see where it stretched out noticeably Larger than the original carving. That particular tree doesn't look very old.

Look at the tree sign threads on here and research the growth pattern of trees. That will explain it better than and you can see pictures of carvings on trees that have grown out from when the carvings were originally made.

Turtles lead to treasure. I would look around, and in the direction the turtle is pointing. If the turtle has feet, that means something: likewise if the turtle does not have feet. You need to get ahold of some good signs and symbols books if you are new to this. Also, peruse the signs and symbols threads.

Many of the Auras/treasures I go to have great turtles at them.
This is one of my favorites as it looks right at the treasure spot (within a hundred feet) and also has a heart on its shell. I have also seen turtles within a few feet of treasure spots, so yes turtles really do mark treasures.

Here you go, a turtle made the exact same way along old trail out of a mining area. Wedge like head rock stuck back in between two boulders making head and shell. 20170812_132441 turtle.jpg Looks toward a cache spot with other markers a couple hundred feet away, and has an old collapsed mine and exposed vein lined up across it's neck maybe 250 feet uphill. It's perched on a giant outcrop and in a highly visible spot.

elh,
Always like seeing this picture
Those that don't know, don't know.

Weekender, thanks and there are those who look up at the sun and deny it even being there.The spirit in them causing them to kick anything they think
does'nt fit their twist. Best verse for them is 1st. Kings 22:22.

Sometimes things will be natural occurrences or flukes of nature. No doubt about that. I try to determine whether or not it is legit by looking for other signs and symbols. If none can be found, then I assume it is a natural occurrence.
