signs are always read from left to right.
they will be visible from the last sign (usually)
each will be visible as the next and there are signs along your way to distinguish the direction of travel. this is a given if the signs are authentic.
Usually the signs are line of site, but this can be a distance of 10 miles
These signs are used all throughout New Spain.
Welcome to the fray and if you have further questions ...
Please feel free to ask.
I have been reading over these signs and symbols threads and find it very interesting. At first I would of never believed that these formations and such were "signs and symbols" but the more I read the more convinced I am. I just have a quick question which I haven't seen over any of the things I have been reading.
1. How long do these go (distance wise) I mean from the first until the last was there a normal number or does it vary?
2. If you come to the sign say in middle of the overall map its giving you is it possible to follow from that point or do you need the previous "signs and symbols" to follow?
3. If question 2 is you need the previous is it possible to follow backwards to get the ones missed?
4. Last question...Can these be found anywhere or is there only specific areas these were used?
Thank you in advance and if I have missed the answers to any of these questions in previous posts i'm sorry.
