Hi Tridini,
Snake Marker and its Symbolism.
At this point I think its a Trail Marker - Going in the Direction of the Snake.
The Other Small Markers that give Directions are on the Snake it self.
1 - White line representing possibly a trail, canyon,wash etc. - That's for you to figure out.
Since we don't have a Map of the Area.
2 - The Eyes, the one on the “
Right” looks like it was scratched out (
Closed)
The One on the
“Left” look to be (
Open) – This Is the Direction to Follow.
As you follow the Trail Stay to the Left – or stay on its Left Bank / or Side.
If the Snake has a Forked Tongue – You mite come across a Junction or cross roads.
Stay on the Left Trail to Continue. Unless other Markers State Other Wise.
You will most likely come across more Markers on your travels.
3 – The (
T) on the Head - is a
Tau Cross – There could be more than one Meaning Here.
The Tau Cross, Has special meaning to Christians – Its some times called the
“Franciscan Cross”
And was put as a Mark on a Persons Fore Head, As you see, it was put on the Snakes Head.
The TAU became and is Represented by the Greek Letter “TAU”, T
Its also the last letter in the Hebrew Alphabet.
Like in the Greek, it can Represent the Alpha and Omega.
Theses Symbols could represent something of value.
4 – Its also the
St Anthony's cross – St. Anthony was the Patron St. of “
Finding thing that are LOST”
I leave the rest of the investigation to you.
Since we don't have a map of the location and the History of the Area.

What is the meaning of the 'Tau' Cross?
This is just my Interpretation / Perception,
Lost Horse.
