"The mind is powerful at finding patterns where they don't exist.

Sir, look up Pareidolia.

Pareidolia is a phenomenon wherein people perceive likenesses on random images—such as faces, animals, or objects

I have to ask you this: When you pay attention to your 300 yrs oak tree (still wondering how you know its actual age) does the tree actually talks or is this just figuratively?

It was in existence in the 1840s because the house is between to huge Oaks , during the American civil war a doctor lived here and its connected to a stagecoach trail. The two trees were already here and house a 6 window completely made of ceder was built in between the two trees..so they were full size large in the 1840s so from 250-300 years old the tree being roughly 14 feet in diameter...its a estimated guess of course..the trees must have been of some age to carve the markings on them ...so ancient Oaks , a stagecoach trail , Indian mound and hidden mines all in the vasenity, im looking for the ore car rails paths which could appear as a dry creek bed with the entrances covered up buried...

I thought the same exact thing, it's my mind wanting it to be this yes I went through that but as the information on the tree started talking...the number 2 on the tree ..a type of mine grading system...2 is associated with Gold and precious stones ...then 5 ..5 veras a Spanish unit of measurement used to measure acreages was on it ...so back then they were going on the Spanish systems of measurement and mining symbolism, so a mine claim ...this place is between two mints a private mint to west and old confederate mint to the east both within 40 miles ...

We had an red oak that was bordering my property. It was 18ft around or 5.7 ft in diameter. The tree service and oarks estimated the tree as 600 yrs old.
It also depends where the tree is located because the climate zones dictate growth.

That's why you see stuff in the bark then. Your fixated on treasure legends and gold and it has the eyes/brain seeing things that everyone else would see just old bark.
Best of luck though.

Wow 600 years incredible, well interestingly enough opposite the Indian chief carving is a looked like a lizard 🦎 and the Indians around here used the lizard, saying the lizard guards subterranean riches and its possibly on top of a cavern because lizards come out at night and craw all over the house and sometimes they are crawling all over the tree ...the Spanish out west used the lizard 🦎 as well as a indicator that a cavern system was underneath and when seeing lizards they looked for an cavern entrance...I might add a pigeon blood rubie was recovered in the house, 6 sided tabular construction and was big as a Golf ball and heavy as led ...shining a light on the rubie it was blood red..but I found out pigeon blood rubies are from two places...Burma and Vietnam in the old pirate stories of the Indian ocean, I thought her husband brought it back from Vietnam from a cavern but turns out North Carolina is the other place pigeon blood rubies occur....

Opposite the triangle of trees this tree being one of the trees in the triangle...this symbol looks down on three depressions in the dirt , my camper is right in front of this huge Oak and at night I would walk out to cut my generator off and in the dark step in these depressions and it hurt my back , that when I realized they were there ...and then noticed depressions in the yard all within view of the master bedroom of this 1840s 6 window ceder house , around the house in the front yard are depressions , in front of the mule crib / barn of sorts and even in the surrounding woods behind the house...sunken depressions...thats when I understood it was a dirt bank depository at one time...

Why do you have to make a new post on the same subject every time you post?

Sorry to disturb your delicate senseabilities

 

[Maj.McKnight]

Sorry to disturb your delicate senseabilities of perception, I am not very fimilar with how to post my information on this site being new here , I didn't expect people to have such distain for new folks learning how to present their information, but gladly I don't really look for anyone else's approval and opinions of perfection or to fullfill your personal expectations...my satisfaction in this comes from the history and mystery of the KGC confederate underground methods of hidden treasures and conveniently that doesn't rely on others perception or lack of and my joy comes from the research as the story is revealed, So if tree bark is all you see maybe other subjects may satisfy your lack of vision and insight

"Welcome to the forum. It's not a lack of vision or disdain for new folks; it’s just basic botany. When you post photos on a public forum, you have to expect objective feedback.

Tree bark sheds and changes over 150 years. Any Civil War-era markings would be completely distorted or grown over by now. Believing the KGC relied on shifting bark textures to map treasure isn't historical research—it’s just finding patterns in nature.

If you have actual historical maps or documents tying this tree to the KGC, please share them. Otherwise, it's just tree bark."

Sir, look up Pareidolia.

I understand pareidolia is a phenomenon that exists but the information is on a ancient Oak tree my estimation 300+ years and surface that the information is on is living and moving so the interpretations go with a grain of salt so to speak and is outside the ability of some to grasp ...concerning KGC sign post trees , in those day's beside the horse trail these trees were like billboard signs on the highway and I didn't chose this method but for a limited amount of time they did exactly what was intended and people traveled on these treasure trails because secret societies didn't trust banks and I understand completely i don't trust them much either but faces is one of the things recorded that were on these trees as well as the names of confederate operatives here's a picture of exactly that.

"I understand you are passionate about this, but you are conflating actual historical evidence with confirmation bias.
Comparing intentional Native American trail trees—which were physically bent as saplings—to random bark ridges is apples and oranges. Deep tree wounding leaves very specific cambium scars. It doesn’t manifest as a perfectly preserved map of lightning bolts and triangles or faces in the outer bark 160 years later.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and your logic is drifting completely out of reality. Unless you have actual historical documents linking this exact spot to the KGC, any objective outsider looking at this can see you're just forcing a delusion onto a normal tree.

I'm done entertaining this; I'm sticking to the botany."

[Carl-NC]

It's an ordinary tree, and what you think you see is all in your imagination. If we had a time-lapse video of the tree growing over decades and even centuries, you would see incredible changes in the bark pattern as the tree gets bigger and the bark sheds and expands. 100 years ago, someone else would be looking at completely different pareidolic images.

Well you know I seen the symbols and took the pictures. It was only later that I understood these symbols were in the book Coronados children related to the Spanish mining lingo and how they used the triangle of trees to trianglate the treasure hunter on to the correct burial location thats was when it became fascinating...speaking of psychosis is interesting...I will relate some interesting facts to you ..i was here about one year camping this house is on huge Quartz crystal rocks as foundation piers right huge white Quartz rocks and the house has a very expensive at the time lighting rod system going into the ground...OK your cell phone has a Quartz crystal data chip that with electric charge and vibration can store audio and visual data its basically a holographic image a hologram with sound right ....well when you are here after a lighting storms with thunder...the lightning charges the ground, and sometimes by the lightning rod and thunder vibrates the ground and Quartz stones the house sits on during a time period about a week ...you can hear horses, a wagon of some type maybe a stagecoach ..and hear voices in the house and outside sometimes...Anyway i was sleeping in a room upstairs had a dog with me and all the doors were open to allow the dog to go in and out ...Anyway same time every night about 2:30 am you would hear a skeleton key go into the lock and the door knob turn and then you would hear a large cork pop out of a liquor jug , happened over and over several nights after the thunder storm and all the locks and porcelain door knobs were already removed...but you could hear them operating...it wasn't a ghost it was a residual haunting of sound coming from the huge Quartz stones the house sits on ...even the ground is loaded with Quartz deposits ..but not psychosis...
