Thanks Creolegirl for the updated pictures. I see what you mean now. Those were not visible in previous shots. The asterisk symbol is used as a trail demarcation to indicate s path not to follow but no necessarily dangerous. The rest are not scout symbols so you are probably right. This is intriguing. When you get it sorted, be sure to report what they meant. Good luck.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

Before trying to decipher the meanings of the signs, the prudent person would first make sure that the signs are not freshly-made.

I am a retired surveyor. In surveying,

means to set up instrument

means to triangulate, or triangulation sation

means survey point

If I were to read those signs as a surveyor,
and in the order of the photos,
it would say,

" as we traversed to the survey point, we
killed a snake with a machete and set up our
instrument"

Happy Huntin,

Tabdog

Creolegirl, it is good you had the signs analysed. May I ask what methods of analysis were used to determine that the signs were at least 250 years old?
