Last month I found myself wandering around the desert in New Mexico (chasing after Spanish gold). I located several large rocks with stuff carved on them. This photo shows a chevron pointing at 4 crosses. The chevron isn't as clear in this photo, but up close you can definately tell it is a chevron. Each cross is placed inside the other (like the old Russian stacking dolls). This photo is the last etching I could find, so I don't know if it indicates an x-marks-the-spot message or not. If someone thinks it's significant, I can add some photos of the other etchings leading up to this final rock.

Wild, I saw something very similar to that recently. Not far away was a hole that was dug...

Bob,
Definitely Jesuit signs!

Are there any large rock projections close?
If not absolutely scour the site for additional marks.
When it boils down to varas you should be pretty close.

Look for concealed openings that will be sealed.
And be extra careful.
the Jesuits were about the most cunning and devious people ever to walk that part of the country. They are renowned for their death traps.

Hey guys:

It may be a little while before I get back to the area in the photo. Thanks for all the input.

Peerless67, I have several other people looking at these photos right now. I need to hear what they have to say before I post more detailed views of each pic..

However, I will post a pic of the rock leading to the 4 crosses rock. I don't know what to make of this one. If I look carefully, I can see images of spiders and people. It does look like someone else may have rendered some of the images to be unreadable (see top right). What do you think?
