Working on what name they may have tried to scratch off the map from around 1519 . Anyone know the symbol?
looks like a rendering of a winged man, the eagle being the book of John, the winged lion being the book of Luke, so it is either Matthew or Mark being referenced here. are there any numbers accompanying the immediate image?RELICDUDE07 said:Working on what name they may have tried to scratch off the map from around 1519 .

To go any farther I would have to see more of the map, or at the very least a better quality picture of what I have already seen, as others would agree.Franklin said:Gooner said:It looks as though numbers could be incorporated into the design element. A Bible vesre could be the key, as this was standard practice especially among the Spanish catholic priests.
Gooner, I had these numbers before your post but I am not sure what they mean? First inside the box I saw 3262 below it is the number 3,255,500R where the R may mean reales? Also on the right wing I see something like "mycyas" I don't suppose mayas but that would have been before reales wouldn't it? Also the word scratched through may be somewhere in Florida as I see the two letters "FL" I hope this helps "Relicdude07" in someway and I hope it does not get you side tracked in a wrong direction.
