It may be a grave. JACOB TRABAGAL or TABAGAL that died on the 11th in 1902. Just guessing. But for some reason an arrow points ahead. Looks like MX.

Im thinking JACOB ARAB......


ARAB AGAL? ARABACA?

Could A with a circle around it stand for August. Also could it have been a claim marker... Piles of rocks were used for that as well!

How the heck did you do that?

I was also going to say his claim marker. I think the month is under the damage but the O is odd because no month abbreviation ends in O..

Unless its NO for November and he didnt know how to spell or abbreviate.

Arab allah(misspelled)?

JACOB ARABAGAS? The last letter S doesnt fit. Looks like a D.

JACOB ARABACAD?

Perhaps you have found Jacobs lost camel mine!

Jacob waltz lost Dutchman mine!
If date 1862 , many camels then.
He was German so would not have called it the Dutchman.
Miners had a habit of naming mine after their pak animal.

The last confirmed wild camel sighting was in 1901. An Arabian camel could carry twice as much as a mule and the two hump could easily carry 3 times that of a mule! Could be a lot of treasure!

I would dig at the x, could be worth a shot. Seems that Jacob went to a lot of trouble to carve the rock if it was only for a camel.

I am sure he is digging at this moment, I would!
