Hello all,
It's been a while since I've been here. I found this rock carving (picture below) on a site that I've been detecting. It looks to me like a turtle or animal with no tail that's pointing down and the whole carving is a little bit smaller than the size of a half dollar. I've done some research on it and from what I've seen, it's supposed to mean treasure below. Well of course I got really excited and dug and dug and dug and dug beneath the sign and found nothing but solid rock, so I'm stumped at this point
. I believe that it has to be man made. The symbol is carved on a line of exposed rock 60 ft up a hill. There's other line's of exposed rock on the hill. In fact where I did the digging right beneath the symbol is between 2 lines of exposed rock that are about 6 feet apart. I was able to dig about 4 feet before I hit solid rock, but no luck. I tried running the metal detector everywhere I could, but no signals. Could there be something else I need to be looking for? Is the symbol maybe saying that it's on down the hill somewhere or maybe it's meaning something else? Thanks for any and all help.
