A friend of mine - made a trip up to Miner's Needle and found a 'Head' carving. Who carved the 'Head', no one knows at this point. Maybe this video will assist you with regards to what you've found via GE.
This is part Two:
The Head

bro.......that dude makes great videos. I think Im a fanboy now.

SPARTANOC,

Definitely looks like a head, and looks man-made to me.

Indeed.

Cuzimloony is the videographer of the Head anomaly. Question is, how old is it? Not to mention who created it in the first place. Aztec? Mexican? Local Indian Tribe (there are many). As far as I did in a small amount of research - the Head isn't Indian as I could not find any type of Tribe that did art like this or for any purpose. So, this could very of well been made by a Prospector or Miner - but again, no proof of that. Outside of Cuz finding it, I've never heard of anyone mentioning it on TN or anywhere else. Strange Head indeed. Maybe, Cuz shed more light on it, since his last trip there.

cuzimloony,

Yes, I've spotted some of those stacked stone walls built by ranchers. There are some located just northeast of Miners Needle designed to funnel cattle into a narrow space.

May be coincidental, but I took a compass bearing off the gaze of the stone head and it's looking right toward the Silver King mine. See my map below. (The red star is Buzzards Roost)

All I have is speculation. I talked with a park ranger at the peralta trailhead about it. He knew about it. Said it was natural and laughed off the suggestion it might not be.

IMO, that head very much resembles some of the statues of the giant warriors unearthed all over Sardinia.

Your statement regarding Sardinia is an extraordinary one. The example you gave really does have similar qualities about it - same style of art (which I could not find with any other culture) and dimensions. I did some searching for Sardinia and its historical culture and this is what I found.

Giants of Mont'e Prama

If there's any correlation with Sardinia - it would date this sculpture to be very, very old. I don't believe there's any record of the Nuragic civilization ever arriving to the New World (America), but you just never know. It's a stretch, but a curious possibility, as both have an incredible resemblance.

[SPARTANOC]

A further thought of the Giants of Mont'e Prama: During this time, copper and Iron were being traded.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong - but wasn't copper and Iron mined within the Supes and the surrounding areas of Arizona? Could this civilization have made it here to the "New World" and mine for said Copper and Iron?

Arizona's nickname is The Copper State.
I know for sure copper came out of Silver King.
These guys (below) built the Magma line that runs through Hewitt's Ranch and they still pull copper out of the Superior Mining district.

Cuz

This begs the question then. In the vicinity of the Head up in Miner's Needle; are there Remnants of Iron or Copper nearby on that ledge/incline that would indicate someone mining the material?

Are there remnants of iron......
Have you seen how red the ground can be out here?
Jokes aside, I think most of the copper mining (modern day) comes from farther south than the wilderness area. (Or a bit further north like Minnesota) Please someone correct me if Im wrong, but I think of places like Bisbee when I think of copper.
As for what happened a thousand years ago around here......your guess is probably better than mine.

 

[skyhawk1251]

cuzimloony,

As for the ranger laughing off the "head theory", that's to be expected, just as the official story is that there's no gold in the Superstitions. Fortunately, we know differently. I see the head's facial features as being chiseled into the stone. The top, capstone does not look like it has been shaped entirely by nature.

I surely see some design on its head. A turtle from a certain angle....

Tortilla Creek is full of copper, im not sure where it comes from. Between the ranch and the parking off the apache trail nearly anywhere you are in the creek, most of the small rocks will have copper flakes on them.

Probably no chance for that particular link, Spartanoc. The Nuragic culture died out when the Romans arrived to mine silver for their coinage. The Iglesias district has an awesome Roman mining history, including the lost camp of Metalla. That said, it would be quite a stretch to link Roman miners in Sardinia to the theory. Of course, Arizona already has a controversial allegation that the Romans had a colony in the Tucson vicinity several hundred years pre-Columbian. Of course, this has all been "debunked by the authorities", so we know that couldn't have happened. Right?

More surface features south of Miners Summit and below the mountain. There does seem to be a trail on the west side of the natural "bowl" and perhaps leading to the elliptical feature that seems to have walls. Study the shadows carefully. They seem to define the walls. The last image seems to show a large pile of material.

 

[skyhawk1251]

A circle of stones, and more, west of Fish Creek Canyon.

 

[skyhawk1251]

A strange trail SSE of Tortilla Mountain. It leads up a mountain, then deadends.

 

[skyhawk1251]

The high point on the ridge where the strange trail is located is shown below (yellow triangle). The best approach to the saddle below the high point is from the south, through the ravine. I see possible evidence of a faint trail along the floor of the ravine and what could be stacked stone walls, mostly tumbled down now. The ravine looks like an interesting place for a camp and for exploration.
