I used to live in Los Lunas and I never heard about it. In fact, the only thing I did hear were gun shots every night. LOL I only lived there for a year and as soon as my lease was up I moved 150 miles away. I'm soooo glad to be out of that town! Too many gangs and illegals for me.

Hey I'm thinking of moving to the Los Lunas area. The area could use something like the Roswell thing to get the economic blood pumping down there.

The fact that no one seems to have yet dated the inscriptions (rock varnish) says you are probably right.

anyone has tried to date the rockI don't know about dating rock's, but some people said my first wife was as dumb as a rock
Anyway, have you ever dated a rock?

>>This looks like a hoax!<<
Unless those very clear inscriptions are somehow protected from the weather (overhgang, cave, etc.), I'm inclined to think the same.

It's an older code, skipper. I can't make it out.

It looks just like my printing except the letters are different of course. I am not kidding either. As soon as I saw them, it struck me.
Not much doubt it is a hoax or just someone enjoying themself. It just doesn't look that old.

Nope but in my younger days I have rocked on a date.

I smells a hoax, an old one, but a hoax nevertheless. Comparison to the phoenician alphabet shows a decided lack of some of the more difficult to write characters and an abundance of the easy ones. Perhaps the good professor Frank Hibben was a self-styled expert on ancient Phoenicia looking for a legacy? At any rate, it's not far from here, so I may take a little day trip down there. Or as has been mentioned earlier, it may very well be the elusive original recipe.

I think it says:
Hat Creek Cattle Company & Livery Emporium.
Captain Augustus McCrae and Captain W. F. Call Proprietors.
For Rent Horses -- For Sale Cattle.
We Don't Rent Pigs -- Goats Neither.

I agree.

Three meters to the north of Mystery Stone, on top of a flat boulder buried in the bottom of the arroyo, are the names HOBE & EVA, and the date 3-19-30.
The important parts always seem to end up on the other side of the link.

Looks like a version of Paleo Aramaic, and is a rough version of the "Decalogue."
Just a guess.

I never attended UNM but that name sure sounds familiar. There was a UNM prof. who investigated the supposed Roswell crash site but I don't think this was him.

Ah yes, but I tried unsuccessfully to post the whole article. No deception was intended I assure you.
