The "Peralta" Stone Maps --- On Their Own

[Ellie Baba]

Thank you, for putting them back the way they were. The closer you approach the images the more they tend to dissipate. In order to present a better photo of the priest I had to move to his specific viewing corridor west of where the initial photograph was taken of the eagle, it too has its' own prescribed viewing corridor. Notice how the details have changed relating to the eagle itself. I placed a small red line above the priest's head and below his feet and the cross is still somewhat visible.



This is a much better photograph than the previous one. What this means is each and every image may have its own specific viewing corridor as indicated in the drawing below. The example of the priest and the eagle support that claim as each was photographed in two different locations.



I am done for the day,

G'd morning Ellie. Coffee? in your post #1701, above, you made no mention of the other "5" just above your named "5"??

And the 2 number 7's, below and above the C on the right side.
The bottom one is facing properly, the top one side ways.

Even has "EB" on it......

I figured that everyone would see that #5. It is interesting that the five on the Horse Tablet is also adjacent to the 5-7-heart symbol.

Coffee is heating up as I write.

Great stuff, can't live without it!

10-4, and it's amazing that you can even see those numbers and letter. For some reason this site has enlarged the two eagle photographs and I don't know why. When you get the pics to large they are harder to view due to distortion caused by increasing the resolution. I complained, but to no avail.

Wish I had better high resolution photographs. We're going back up there next week and just may get a couple of better shots.

Later Roadrunner and thanks for your comments.

Even I missed that one...do you really see an EB? I thought it was E8. Later SH, Ellie B

Took another batch of photographs the other day and found this particular one was very interesting. This image is just below the eagle's bill and actually displays a number of techniques the artist(s) used to create these animated images. There are at least 3 people displayed in this photo. The best priest image here depicts the priest holding a cross over where the skull's right eye should be located. There are symbols all over the place, even numbers can be found in the skull's left eye. I am learning more each day as I spend hours studying this animated rock art.





It is better to view the art forms from a distance as distance increases the sharpness of the images. Also, compare this shot with the earlier shot of the first eagle I posted. By the way, this image is very large as one may just be able to reach the upper part of the skull's jaw.

Enjoy,

Ellie B

After taking a more detailed look at our eagle I realized that I made a mistake in his identification; this particular bird is a falcon due to the fact the image depicts a tomial tooth on his beak. An eagle kills with it's talons by crushing its prey. The falcon kills its prey by severing the spinal column with a powerful bite aided by a tomial tooth.



There is a very important reason why this bird must be identified as a falcon.

Got work to do...

Here are a few photographs from this weekend out in the field.



Some of these need to be viewed from a distance.

It was just an awesome weekend! Ellie B

I think that face looks like mother natures work since it is so large and would be hard to get too. Course the area I circled could be natural as well

I cannot distinguish between Pareidolia and carved images in most of this thread. Sometimes I see just rocks as well.

 

[somehiker]

Just get yourself some of this stuff.....

Or....

 

[deducer]

SH, do they sell either of those in industrial strength size? I'm going to need that if I have any hope of keeping up with the paredolia decoding and rock art interpretation in this thread.

 

[Ellie Baba]

I had two non-believers who wanted to see this rock art personally. The jokes and laughing didn't stop until we reached the area. Soon silence and wonder began to take over and now they want to see even more. They cannot understand why they never had seen these images before, they lived in this area for many years. The four of us were all recognizing the exact same images. Turns out that Lisa is a natural and has no trouble separating the real art forms from pareidolia. The crescent moon always works its magic and the desire to learn more about this art form takes hold.

It is simply amazing!

Ellie,

It isn't that we are not believing in what you are bringing to the table, least of all I. As a matter of fact, until the day one of us walks out, gold bar in hand, your interpretation and approach is just as legitimate as mine is.

It's just sometimes hard for me to understand or to follow, but then again, I am new to the technique of separating rock art from pareidolia, and apparently may need extensive training before I can appreciate this sophisticated art.

Ellie, It isn't that we are not believing in what you are bringing to the table, least of all I. As a matter of fact, until the day one of us walks out, gold bar in hand, your interpretation and approach is just as legitimate as mine is. It's just sometimes hard for me to understand or to follow, but then again, I am new to the technique of separating rock art from pareidolia, and apparently may need extensive training before I can appreciate this sophisticated art.

I had my doubts many years ago when I was introduced to this type of art form. These art forms were not designed to be seen by the general public and it took me and others (wife, kids, friends, archaeologists) many hours of study and fieldwork. Archaeologists are floored when they see the images created by the artists special talents. I have basically been shunned by the archaeology community because I have been stereotyped as a treasure hunter. They also tell me that I am the only authority who works with this type of art form and understands its techniques.

When you have four or more people in a group and you all can agree that what you see is a dog next to his master, you can know that paredolia must take a back seat.

We all were able to identify the dog in this rock art form.

Have a great week Deducer,

Where would you suggest a newbie begin in order to start learning this talent?

I'm in FL and my roommate sees images in every tree and rock. Sometimes I do too. Every time I have to wonder if that's something someone really put there or just pareidolia ( Pareidolia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

Here is another example:


I call it the praying Indian. I believe it's just another natural formation, but maybe it was carved by the Jesuits, in which case...........

This one I call Father Kino with his dog gazing up at him.......adoringly:

This one I call The Plymouth Rock, often called simply Rocks.



After further research, I decided it was just a scrawny chicken.

Take care,

Joe
