Watch John Carpenters movie "They Live" then you will begin to "see". Watch, listen and read alternative media. The main stream media is "their" way of controling us. Throw your TV away as it is evil. You are being brainwashed while you watch your favorite shows. Start thinking outside the box. Read The Biggest Secret by David Icke. Listen to the words of Red Elk on You Tube. Read ' 1984 ' by George Orwell. Pray and put some energy into finding the truth...and you will begin to wake up and "see".
How did you get all of that from J.I.(T.) MorSE?

I'm kinda wondering the same thing. Maybe the naysayers are trying a new tactic. :icon_scratch:

Re: Pioneer scribble or something ELSE?

Went back out today. Two packs, two-box, and shovel. HOT!
Didn't learn much but I did document everything very carefully and then removed ("removed" sounds soooooo much easier than what it was) the 'stake' from the ground. Ended up being one of those "everything that can go wrong ... outings."

Anyway, 34.5" long. Take a look. Please comment as I have no idea what this is nor why it would be pounded into the ground in such an obscure location. Thanks in advance!

That end sure looks like a 'star drill'.

Re: Pioneer scribble or something ELSE?

The Rod is a star drill used in mining that has been broken off, and may have been put there to mark the location of something very special that was hidden.

Re: Pioneer scribble or something ELSE?

FOUND! --- A small treasure that I find very perplexing. Pics tomorrow. This I found on TOP of the ground (was MD'ing, but eye-spotted). Kinda mangled, a bit abused, bent into an "S" type form, but, nonetheless a new reality I am forced to deal with. A Spanish coin with a date of 1757.

The coin is well worn, "shiny" and, again, 'mangled.' Like I said, doesn't fit my KGC treasure-type mindset, but then again .... ?????? sorry all, really confused .. appreciate the small find but, IF relevant, throws me off.

Yeah, I know I'm just too demanding. I "think" I knew that this is a KGC site. Maybe not for sure, but I now feel I gotta look more at Spanish. Except, I think - I think - the site is overall more 1800's ............. just keep going ..

mannings...

Archeological sites are layered. I imagine treasure sites can be too. Perhaps a "survey" of your site might help determine what is up? Have you taken inventory of site use or history? Considering all the effort you are putting into this, I imagine so.

Keep up the thread... this is really interesting! Thanks.
The original Old Spanish Trail skirts many miles to his west. He is part of the Armijo Branch of the OST. The first recorded Euro-Americans to visit the area were the Dominguez-Escalante Party in 1776 His coin was made in 1757. His town was founded in 1861. White people were in the area as early as the 1830s.

Just my two cents worth (and might be counterfit and unspendable). It could still be KGC as it seems like they spent time looking for the spanish stuff and either re-marked (easier to do) or moved and re-buried. Sure can get confusing when the signs are mixed. Nice find and good luck.
