Thom, I'm not very knowledgeable about signs....but man, you did one heck of a job. I'll keep trying to learn from the master. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thom, great job!

Am I to understand that following that face and teh square confirmation marker lead you to that cave entrance in the final pic? Wow man. Were there any traps at or in the cave? What was in the cave?

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

Hi CT,
The hole looks backfilled,
this to me indicates more than just a prospect hole.
it may come to nothing though as it is on private property,
we will have to get permission to see more than pictures show.

still a nice finish to a set of signs

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

Tesorodog asked if I would post this picture.
It is starting to deteriorate but sure is a super interesting sign.
When he sent it to me the subject line read...

Need a hand?

That may say it all

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

Would you please tell me what a hand means. Why would they carve a hand like this. Does it mean something. Thanks you for posting. I have learned allot from this topic. :icon_study:

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

The hand doesn't seem to be pointing.
as such the position of the hand offers shelter.
this could indicate a decent place to escape the intense desert sun, or just rest, sheltered.

The original meaning is lost with the maker.
But I do agree...
Way COOL !

Sorry TD, I couldn't tell you....but Old Dog can :thumbsup: I'm sure gollum knows also if that's his site.

Best to get Mike to tell you about this one guys.
I am not aware of the context and he is.
It is his sign, it makes sense to let him say what he wants about it...
He knows how it is used.

Holy moley Tesoro! That little possible dark eye catcher and the possible carved pointer laying on the hand must be for those that said "what hand??" What a magnifco piece of art it is.

Gollum sooo cool.

Bob.. what a formation! Did you get out to explore that yet?

Mesa.your agony guy.. I swear the first time i viewed i saw a very distinct common carving on it or around it but sure can not find it now! Thanks for posting pics!
