Hal,
Which one has your attention?
Good luck,

The true story of the stone maps. You wrote.
I have been so busy chasing after grumpy Texans with sombreros that I may have missed it.
Seriously, which story specifically?

deducer,
I have not ignored any "facts". You have always assumed facts in my posts that were never stated. I have always tried to dig out the true history of the legends that surround the LDM and the Superstition Mountains. That does not set well with many in the community who want to preserve the accepted false history that is being concocted on a daily basis.
The true story of such artifacts as the Stone Maps is just now coming into the daylight. That truth does not include them having been part of the flooring of a church. That fact may have some effect on the book(s) that have been, or are being written by those who have made up their own history.
The Alkire story will no longer be an addition to any new books on the LDM. Without my, and a few friends research, that truth would probably never been revealed. It's just history, and history bites.
If you doubt my posts, or the truth that is in them, stop reading them. Do not presume to know what "facts" I choose to ignore.

Then perhaps you would take a stab at answering the three points I raised?

That's what I thought right away too - didn't sound much like Ryan to meIt's a computer generated male voice......LOL
Starting to wonder about you guys.....![]()
Speaking of which... it's almost May and not a peep about the "forthcoming" documentary, or whatever it is. Anyone know what's going on?

Pay attention, cause it IS important to the history of these rocks, as well as the others that we have all seen.
And it's all close enough to the older Adolph Ruth bridge for some folks to consider that bridge as a reference point IMO. Especially since other things were found out there well before Mitchell and Tumlinson showed up to look around.

The stone which Frank holds and is similar to the stone tablets material , is an " eye catcher " and was placed on the shelter box where the stone tablets were at the first place . This stone looks like a capillas roof and " tells " how something is hidden below/inside .This method is to attract the attention and to go there to look . Is also a method to mark the place where something worth could be located .
In another instances were used rocks which had a completly different color with the surroundind rocks , to attract the attention . Pure white rocks were used to mark a trail , and where were three white rocks together would marked the end of the trail . Are another type of " lugares " .

That is why I revised the post to add the color shot without the notes, Marius.Wayne
What Frank holds has nothing to do with the stone you show in your photo as " Frank's video stone " . Different shapes , colors and materials .
