Friends may have something hereDid he?

Is anyone else lost on this post other than me? :dontknow: Breezie
 

I think the poster is from a foreign land. What I see in some of the pictures appears to be a cross carved into the stone. I am sure he is trying his best to convey his questions in English. They are just a little confusing.
What I don't understand is the first reply?
 

what i don't understand is when the canoe turns over and the wheels are sticking up how many pancakes can you put in the dog house true or false?
just joking.... :tongue3:
 

I have no clue.

It appears the poster is from Turkey and we seem to have a bit of a language barrier.

Ok, a lot of a language barrier.

Just saying..

;D
 

What we need to know or find out is "when is a frog when it turns"? It's kinda ob..wait, what?
 

About 5:30 but dont think I can make it. :dontknow: lol :laughing9:

Are they blueberry pancakes?
 

Hello Babacan.

Interesting photos you have there. the first one almost looks like the top of a skull, I would very much like to see it agian from a left & right angle picture, and also pulled back just a bit.
the third & last photos are clearly something, I just lack the expertise to be able to tell you what it means.

If your from Turkey, you have some amazing history all around you ( I'm invious ) please ask you friend if there are other photos you may post.
I'm sure there are some Smarterthanmeoligist here, that could give you a serious evaluation.
 

Babacan:
Has anyone ever pointed out to you that your photos show country that is very much like areas of Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and California?? Just curious.

If those stones pictured are in Turkey or close by, they MIGHT be boundary markers for land ownership. Have you checked the history of the area (country) to find out what kinds of official marks were used in land surveys? That might help you and your friend to eliminate many marked stones you have found. If I remember correctly, he Romans left their marks everywhere they went. Other groups probably did, too. If you can find examples of those official marks used down through the centuries and make copies in your notebook, they will help you to sift out the "normal" stuff and see what you have left to decode. Ask the curators at your museums for that information. DO NOT tell them you are looking for treasures. They'll refuse to help you. Just tell them you do a lot of walking in the hills and have noticed those curious marks in the stones and boulders and want to learn more about them. Then, let him (or her) do most of the talking. Folks like that LOVE to demonstrate their knowledge. LOL

Good luck

Great answer. Logical, straight forward, and to the point. Tell as little as possible and let the other person do the talking. I would add to that, take notes and obtain any imagery of symbols the museum might be willing to part with. Offer to share some of your info, so long as it's not critical, with them for their help.
 

I smell the slightest whiff of a s**m :tongue3:

Or as BABACAN would put it......


Ben en ince bir scam esintisini sezerim.
 

I think his friend feels that he may have found something that may be a trail marker, first photo forward and backward, trail can be worked both directions. Also the cross may be to indicate the trail divides into four directions
 

Dear friends, I took these pictures in the field and those on the stones to me it was interesting to me if you have information about different geldi.Sizlerbunlar Please help me ..

Thank you for your attention

Looks like you might be right. Isn't "sizler...." a German prefix for something "sh---y. I used to occasionally use a German word for "sh--" that sounded really similar to that word in his last post.
I could be wrong though. Wouldn't be the first time. :dontknow:

The verb in German is scheissen.
