Hello guys, This is a rabbit shape rock with signs. can you please help me decode it? It would be very much appreciated.

Hello Alex_Mayer, After painfully reading it all...

If you try again, since your thread has been moved, you can possibly get a different perspective, other than from some likely 99.9% metal detectorists. Who most likely would not be familiar with what all that you are trying to learn about. If you will read & study the Spanish vaults thread by sandy1, & the ancient vaults thread by Quinoa, that will very possibly help you. Nice subtle rocks like turtles, rabbits, hearts, etc., are not easily, or maybe not ever noticeable by that many treasure hunters. This is a specialized kind of study, & people good at finding nice coins at old homesteads etc., or gold rings etc. on the beaches & such, may not have necessarily seen or known anything about any ancient made concrete, sealing vaults, the subtlety in the styles & techniques so many conquests of caching in the old world ways, & how they made, possibly death trapped, & carefully marked them.

Except there is nothing there but rocks. People are frustrating. It's highly dishonest to think it's anything but natural rocks. Many here know what they are talking about lots have experience hiking around and seeing natural formations like this. Yes in another picture posted there is clearly a human worked tunnel of sorts but those things are rocks plain and simple. While there are actual subtle treasure markers like trees made to lean certain ways, rocks placed(small to mid sized rocks) these massive rocks are natural. Sigh my stubbornness makes me respond to this pointlessly. Now with the cave being worked by humans there still is possibilities of finding things like relics or things lost there. I guess I'm done with this post it gets a bit silly at this point. The OP can believe as they wish.

Just the point, he's saying it's an old burial possible vault/crypt area. The stacked rocks are obviously done like that there for a reason. Not all markers are even carved. Some are simply set or stacked, like there where the rocks are appearing to be propped up underneath, & the slots & shapes/holes. You didn't read me say anything that he posted is a particular marker, though there may very well be in what he posted, & possibly in the area, something he sees that you don't. Have you ever detected Ancient concrete, looked at an ancient vault, ancient markers or shadow symbols, or crypt? Spanish markers/signs, maps, carved rocks that pre-date the Spanish Conquistadore, Jesuit, & or Inquisatador conquests?
Any of the above, honestly? Some people in this forum have seen all of that & more. I knew it would start something, so I mentioned nothing about what may be there. Since it appears you are likely one of those metal detectorists I referred to, I'm sure you specialize in that, finding "a few coins or whatever, & a lot of junk" as you said. Just because poeple have spent a lot of time hiking around exploring & taking in the sights, doesn't mean that they ever saw or understood everything that may have been right there in plain sight. Doesn't take away from what they know, but doesn't mean there's nothing in someone else's area and pics that they cannot see.
So knowing this well, taking many pics is often revealing. Just because many people that don't know like to say no, doesn't mean there are no treasure markers/signs out there. Metal detecting is something useful as a part of this kind of vault treasure hunting, but only a part of the picture.
Though we refrain from musing
& mocking, as it is totally non-productive, & disrespectfull.
We don't tell you how to detect, pinpoint, or recover your treasure things. Or suggest you don't know what you're talking about, well researched, it's pretty much
possible to learn basic & common understanding & knowledge quickly anyway. Marks/symbols are often subtle enough to escape the untrained eye. This is uncommon research, a specialized area that is understood & honed with practice. Maybe some can learn more, if they will look closer at examples of markers, listen instead of nay say, focus, take the pics & try. Doesn't mean you're in a treasure area, but more study will possibly open that window. We don't see things in rocks, trees, shadows, or even the hillsides or the stars, just because we want to. And don't squint a certain way, or stand on one foot & hold our head just right. There are usually other markers/signs not too far away, that give the all important information, possibly sometimes a confirmation of what may have been done so long ago. That most of the uninitiated, & never coming into the full circle understanding of the mysterious codes, will not see, and never ever know.

People will believe what they want to believe.
Like the story of the guy who demanded that his neighbors bow when meeting him because he was an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh. They of course just laughed but eventually they got tired of his claim. They demanded he take a lie detector test, and , surprisingly, he agreed. The test was well underway when they popped the question: Are you a 3000 year old Egyptian Pharaoh? Without batting an eye he firmly answered "NO".
The machine showed he was lying.

A GUIDE TO VAULT TREASURE HUNTING (Condensed)

I have compiled a good list of Real Treasure Markers, that lead to and mark treasure Vaults and Storages Nobody ever gave me any Information that ever led me to a treasure, that is why I am sharing, because I don't want anybody else to have to go through over half their adult lives to collect...

www.treasurenet.com

In the mean time, read the guide, study the pics, & remember, this is the guy with the gold bar, used to be his avatar pic for years...

Moving the thread to this Treasure Marks forum will most likely result in more support for the OPs thoughts, but that doesn't change the facts.

Natural rock formations with no evidence of nearby treasure. The photos that were added later to this thread have nothing to do with the original comments about the 'rabbit rock' and some of those later images do indeed show manmade structures, but again without evidence of treasure.

There is no historical archeological evidence regarding hiding treasure inside a stone that was cemented back together. These myths are perpetuated simply because the internet has given these 'theories' a place to collect, and the believers a place to come together.

Naysayers matter too... Sigh..

Most successful TH'ers in
this nature, will not ever
be careless enough to:

Show all of their cards they are
holding, especially not all at once.

Cave in to any demand of showing
any personal clues or real
treasure, period...

Worry about what the uninitiated may say,
think, or try to explain about
why they must be right.

Even listen to the jokes & musings of them not in the know & so often hounding about their knowledge & vast comprehensive & wise understanding...

Try to put others trying to obtain important info, into an awkward place.

Why would it matter to you if he gets support at any point of his inquiry,
just so you are right?

Read the guide, go out & prove it to yourself... The only thing you may
have helped him with, is

I don't know if you are being serious or joking. Anyway, this is what a turtle guardian of the tomb looks like it weighs over 20 tons (just an estimation). there is a mechanical trap if you try to enter from this entrance there is always a chance that the shelf would fall and block it, the egg is round which will help the shelf to fall. And you will die inside.

Interesting. A lot of carving with shapes when you zoom in. It does look trapped,
big time.
Sort of squared & tilted openings...
A Dolmen? Would likely be pretty important, the way it's all set. Kind of round rocks on top pic 3.
A darker heavily shaped rock in
front & just behind in same last pic.
Nice unusual pics & area.

A mimetolith is a natural rock feature that resembles a living form in nature — usually a face a human head, or animal.

Mimetoliths: The Faces We See in Rock Formations

Erosion and weather can combine to make rock formations look like all kinds of things, from human faces to animals. They're called mimetoliths and we've taken a look at four of the most famous.

This all being said these natural shaped rocks have been used by all cultures to describe a place.

Pareidolia is usually when we see faces if I remember correctly.

Reality sucks, and so does cognitive dissonance. As our old pal S. L. Clemens is credited with observing, "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story". He didn't originate the quote of course, but hey ... so what?

I looked out my back door yesterday and saw a large reptilian sea creature emerging from a pile of dirt. I need to identify its origin in ancient arcana so that I can have a better idea of who the ancients were that buried gold in my yard and where to dig for it.

Yes, & they took full advantage of anything Naturally Occurring, & were masters at making things they did look questionably
& very much persuadingly natural.

Pareidolia,
Would that be faces supposedly that are not actually shaped or carved, but seem to be present
in the various shades & colors or variations of out cropping or terrain along a hill, mountain, valley, maybe trees or landscapes with shadows, silouettes, light, etc.

But when man has obviously touched, manipulated by the carving, moving, & or particularly the methodical setting of rocks & boulders, for the purpose of marking perhaps a trail or treasure area, or a burial vault or crypt. Then that would be a real marker or monument, because there is definite evidence of man's manipulation. Even to the extent of alignments with solar & lunar events. Such as the winter & summer solstice, etc.

The ancients were well informed & had great knowledge of such things, & went to great lengths to bury, build & align. Just look at various places in N. America, such as Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon, on & on.

And sandy1 & Quinoa have shown various pics of huge markers you won't see in any book or view on any documentary, of the fantastic work of ancients, even here in US.

So many of them boulders or cliff faces so massive in size & weight, that in our modern technologically advanced age with all that is known, no one really knows to this day, exactly how they did it.

This is what the OP of this thread is asking about. A couple of the pics he shared, are appearing to be part of a massive vault or crypt burial entrance, that is set up with multiple ton boulders, carved with shapes, holes, depicting forms of things known to have been used from the ancients, all the way through to the Conquistadores & Jesuits, who were well informed & studied in all such things. This evidenced by the types of markers they made, added to & left for the purpose of being able to recover treasures whenever, later on in the future. Believing that their methods would not be understood or deciphered, because their secrets would remain unknown of the masses.

They were right to the extent that some of their caches are still so much unknown, that many may remain, & are only in the last half of the last century beginning to be even understood, much less ever recovered. Many are trapped so bad, with unbelievably heavy boulders.

Though some are death trapped to the point it's impossible to work safely or even at all, on discovering or uncovering anything they may have left there, without some of the biggest of big heavy equipment.

This is one aspect of why archaeologists will deny any such things of antiquity exist, & may not even fully understand, or want to acknowledge, or maybe believe the existence of such things. Even though some have sought to gain knowledge from them, ernestly.

Either they don't know,
or they are simply just not going to be talking about it any time soon, or most likearnestly. Except when they do something they can release an article about.

There is no proof on rock that it was ever touched by man, with out proofed it was touched by man a rock is just a rock and nothing more.

Well a bit of fun with something comes along when so many at first respectfully stated it's just rocks. That's what it is is rocks. I suppose it can be nature for one to want something to be something so bad no matter what they won't accept it it isn't that thing. Nature is full of things that look like things the human brain is familiar with. Also I have nothing against the OP the OP has been quite respectful. But doesn't change those are rocks placed by nature not man. I still have well wishes for the OP that man worked cave shows promise where there is human activity there are things left behind so maybe something cool will come of that.

 

[Crosse De Sign]

There is no proof on rock that it was ever touched by man, with out proofed it was touched by man a rock is just a rock and nothing more.

Sure, even artifacts that look like they're genuine, must be tested.
But the age of the rock is not the evidence, just what is on it as to knowing when for example an
Indian spearpoint was knapped.
When you find a golden ring, you believe it is of a certain quantity of gold, by the mark's you find on real pieces, and you can also test it for proof. When an ancient boulder is appearing to be looking like a turtle for example, their is no test like you do for precious metals or even say gemstones that can be done other than putting the picture together with all of the clues that can be found & understood. This also involves detectors among other things, where often the hard to get GPR would be helpful, etc. The science, as Allen_Meyer so well put it, is a study of many things the ancients knew & did, to hide their burials, for whatever purpose.

Put together the various aspects of all the things involved, yes it's still a puzzle with fewer conclusions than what good tried & true experienced
detectorists believe may be the size, depth, & kind of material that their detector & experience is telling them is buried. That's a much easier science to master than that of ciphering what the ancients left obscure clues for & why. Still, just as you never know until you see & hold that coin or ring, etc., you don't know what it is for sure. That's much easier than having to learn & use the info ancients, & even the more recent Spanish left to be able to recover their unimaginable wealth of goodies. If you can actually do it,
and live to tell the tale. It's not easy or fast, or well known info. You get not only questioned, which is fine, but also mocked, mused, joked about, & talked ugly things about.

No it's not easy at all, but then someone's got to try and do it. Studying the various aspects can be very time consuming, easily frustrating or extremely fun, & usually unknown, as to the outcome of each interesting & mysteriously rewarding challenge.

Typical of all of these myths, supporters resort to attempting to conflate a given fact with their 'theory'.

In this case, the given fact is that peoples of all time periods have seen meaning in natural formations, especially when those formations resemble a living creature. But to make the assumption that because a formation resembles a given object it 'must' be linked to a treasure is pure fantasy.

This is unbelievably simple:
All that's needed is proof from a legitimate source. There is none, certainly not the obviously fake YouTube videos. And to say that there's real proof but the finders are keeping the finds secret so the treasure isn't taken by the government is just a laughable conspiracy theory.

Here's how the real world works:
There are hundreds of years of documented archaeological finds. They are known to be real. There are also hundreds of years of looted sites, their discoveries hidden from the authorities to protect the finder's illegal activities.

Now let's compare that to these 'treasure-in-a-rock' theories. There are hundreds of years of supposed finds, all reported as hearsay of supposed discoveries that are always very secretive to protect the finder's illegal activities. So, if all these treasure hunters are so successful of clandestinely finding these 'treasures', how is it that there hasn't been any legitimate archaeological finds of this kind? What are the chances that only underfunded amateurs are capable of making these discoveries, but well-funded agencies have never been able to accomplish the same?

Time to move on for me. Best of luck to all of you with your searches. Come back and prove us wrong.

One thing you're totally right about, there always seems to be rocks & more rocks involved in treasure vault hunting. Just as there are
many rocks to consider, there are mostly people who seem to always just see rocks. That's good I suppose for the very few that see & understand in some situations what the rocks are demonstrating. So maybe it's nothing other than just natural weathering, or perhaps the truth lies a little deeper in the signs, whether profile, light, shadows, formations, the way they are laid or stacked, maybe even carved by the hands of some ancient man that may have laughed thinking no one would see or understand what he was doing, to guard & mark a substantial or perhaps even a massive unimaginable treasure, for whatever reason.

Everyone knows:
Gold & silver are often too heavy
to carry much of, especially for very far. The outlaws demonstrated that, with needing to ride harder than the weight would allow, then most often getting chased down & shot up by a posse anyway, leaving maybe some kind of preferred marks to let them recover later if they made it safely away. That's one of the motives for the burials of the people of older days, even the ancients.

As far as the musing, making jokes at other's expense. It truly amazes me what all I've seen get let go.
When I've been banned for less...

Not necessary or even desirable to "prove you or anyone wrong".
Why? So you could mock & muse some more? Or just for 15 min. of supposed fame? I think you all know the answers to why you'll never get proven, & I'm sure you can possibly understand more than you let on. But, you've got to stay in...

Wrong, there is no burden of proof as you see, this is not a court room or a trial, & in fact is just a kind of discussion. Therefore, there will be NO proof, jury or verdict or really any sleep lost over the discussion that seems has gotten nowhere...

I personally don't in the least bit at all care whatsoever. But that IS a nice rabbit head shaped rock with ear, nose mouth & eye.

And a huge turtle shell shaped
boulder, & then another boulder for it's head, with a decent carved
mouth & eye, just as the OP was showing, & right at an apparent entrance to something hidden under ground. It's ok you don't see it that way. No problem, NO worries! No nothing!

Just really no need to discuss any more,
or go to musing or mocking like ya'll did
to a newcomer to TN...

Unnecessary, & uncalled for. The individual did pretty good taking all that, & still giving out more information. Ya'll just can't
stand being outdone by a supposed
newby like that!
Gooday...

Bottom line there is nothing in pictures of rock posted that shows it was ever touched by hands of man.
