that is unusual. I'm not saying that these rocks weren't placed there, because they very well may have been, but i have seen other rocks stacked in a similar manner that were deposited by glaciers. when the glacier melted, it placed big rocks on top of other big rocks that were deeper in the ice. in your photo however, it looks like there are two formations right next to one another. makes the chances of them being a natural phenomenon a little slimmer doesn't it?

maybe the local library would have some info on the native people of Australia, and whether or not they used markers like this?

 

[Tommi]

I've looked into it, it mentions one tribe who lived in the local rainforest but that's about it, I'm wondering if I should or could somehow put together a research trip into the local caves nearby. The Natives killed a lot of the first Europeans and took their valuables; maybe a cache could be hidden up there.

There is a story I heard of a local metal detectorist walking into a cave and finding old bank notes, jewellery and gold sovereigns minted in the 1850's and also human skeleton with a bullet hole in the forehead, he ran off very scared and apparently never returned... this hill is roughly in the same place.

I'm thinking that these rocks could be a sign, more research is needed.. .and hopefully next time I'm in the field cows don't try to chase me down!!!

the caves sound good but i'm wondering what could be under the rock mounds.

There are Many Formations like that all accross The Country.

Around here they blame the Larger ones on Glacier's.

I'm not so Sure.

Either way, I'm sure someone in the past either Worshipped
them or Thought about the fact they could be used for a
perminant Land Mark.

Hey Tommy, those rocks could easily be Jesuit. The Jesuits were in Queensland for over a hundred years or more.

Be careful. That rockpile looks a lot like a funeral cairn. You may just be digging up somebody's grandpappy!

The ground nside the three rock formation looks kind flat, Go over the area with 1 or 2 meter coil,

It's obvious there's a Spanish treasure there it's a pile of rocks right Gollum

GEE! Another ver unMENSA-ish statement! See, if you read my posts, I am honest with my opinions! I stated it looks more like a funeral cairn. If I don't think there is anything there, I say it. Yes, it has gotten me into arguments with some poeple here too.

I think for somebody who claims MENSA associations, you might have read and understood my posts a little better. You jump in with your 24 posts, acting "Holier Than Thou" pretending like you have some greater intellect and knowledge than everybody else here. Without personally seeing a site, I NEVER speak in absolutes (unlike yourself). If you read my posts, you will see "It looks like" "You may have something" and other such things. Only idiots speak in absolutes. Like the icthyologists who said that any belief that the Giant Squid existed was ludidrous (That wasn't very long ago).

So, Mr. Ozark MENSA, if you have a problem with me, bring it on. But before you post things, go to my profile, and read my past posts. Once you get an idea of who I am, then you may be able to make a cognizant (adjective: fully informed) argument against something I said.

Best,

Mike

Come on guys, lets not attack each other on our methods, techniques, what ever.... instead respect each others opinions and remember we are all in this together

First of all thank you to the people who took the time to have a look at this thread and reply and also send me information THANKS I really appreciate it!
I'm saving up for a better Metal Detector to come back to this area and have a poke around, I'll keep you all posted on what happens and if I find anything or nothing..

Hey Tommi,

Sorry to get this way on your thread, but TimRino seems to have a thing for me. This started on another thread. If you read all of his previous posts, you will see that the great majority of them are attempting to show his intellectual superiority over other people. About 20 of his 24 posts are being derisive and attacking other people's thoughts and ideas.

His Avatar says it all. A picture of Albert Einstein with the subheading MENSA Maniac. He seems to be an arrogant a$$ with a need to ridicule others to feel superior.

Sorry again, I just don't back down from arrogant people!

Best,
Mike

Tommi,
Have you searched the place by any means ?
Next time you get up there get lts of good photos, measure the distances between the rocks and make a site map, so ou can work it home. But search the place with a metal detector.
Its usefull to have a camera with you, although a metal detector is much more usefull.
Happy searhing,
Digman.

Like I said before, Tommi,

Be careful, you may just be digging up somebody's ancestor. I'm not too knowledgeable about aboriginal burial practices, but that rockpile mightr just be a funeral cairn.

I found crazy rocks in a field

 

[Blind.In.Texas]

Tree & Rock

I trained bonsai for just a while. Trees that grow like that over rock are usually intentional in my opinion. The tree is planted in "root over rock" style and covered with moss to keep the roots damp. After the roots establish themselves somewhat a rock is placed beneath the roots. Since the roots should be somewhat thickened when placed over the rock the new root shoots will grow rather quickly, thereby, finding their way into the soil beneath and around the rock. After a period of time the moss can be removed and the roots will begin to dry and harden.

What I really mean to say is Paul Bunyon really had a green thumb and I like his technique......
