Any info welcome. There is a hand carved to the left of this, it's a left hand and looks like someone pushed their hand into the rock. It's not like a picture of a hand but is carved to look like and imprint.

Now when I see Stallions, Thunderbird, and a flying Montezuma I get excited.

casca would you be so kind as to say what these signs mean
Billy, definition is given by the maker of the mark. Certain groups used the signs in their own ways over the years. You asking my to put a broad pen to this. At first I thought it was a prankster, or some misguided treasure hunter trying to mess with peoples heads. But these signs go by many different names. You have to wonder if these are not ancient symbols used by another race.

So my thoughts are along the lines that there was some very smart people a thousand or more years ago that passed that knowledge on to a certain few. I believe the signs are ancient Sumerian or Arcadian in form. I do not read these symbols as symbols. I look at orientation, I look for like signs with a sign, I look at size and height. I wait for the day when modern times learned persons will actually put some info on all this as I am just a hobbyist who likes to take pictures.

Ill take a stab at this. The owls I have seen which are not always KGC are looking in the direction you need to go, and you look over the owls shoulder to see the direction you are coming from. Which direction is more important? I have my ideas, but does not matter. The base of the owls have been known to hold key stones and hidden compartments. But before you go ripping up every strange sign you see, have a good reason to do it first. There are plenty of hand held items that can keep you from digging holes and save your back and let you enjoy your walk.

Hello All,

My favorite "7" found by accident in the south-west high desert. It is only 4" inches high by 3" inches wide and carved into a solid stone slab.

Hope this comes through?

Hello Everyone,

Hello All,

Attached are two photographs: One shows three cuts in a rock which means go three times as far the all cuts are man made. The shadowed lines are 8" inches long 3" to 4" inches apart. The second and most important are a donkey with a pack and a lamb. All found in the American Southwest. Enjoy.

Regards

The "Window" in The San Juans were very important to the Spanish. There is a lost mine associated with the area which you can read about books by Temple Cornelius. Very much worth the read for those interested in treasure in Colorado.
