Contents of file PREHISTORY2: SUNSYMBOLS02
SOURCE LOCATION: SWANSEA, INYO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
LOCALE DESIGNATION(S): INY-272 (UCLA), No. 41 (Steward), Swansea (Baldwin)
Images captured by SVHS or Hi8 video camera and stored in Framestore format.
For this portfolio they have been reformatted to 320x200 HAM images.
THE LAST IMAGE IN THE SUNSYMBOLS01 SET BELONGED ON THIS NUB OF ROCK.
THE UNIQUE STYLE WAS THE POINT OF SOME DEBATE AND MUCH CURIOSITY.
THE SOLUTION WAS FOUND IN 1985 WHEN ANN AND VINCENT YODER, ALONG WITH
MARGARET AND BURRELL DAWSON DISCOVERED THE FUNCTION OF THE CONCENTRIC
CIRCLES. THE SUNSYMBOL MAY CONTAIN A MESSAGE.
SS013 DAGGER INTERACTS WITH UPPERMOST INNER CIRCLE.
SS014 POINTER PASSES THROUGH CENTER
SS015 BOTTOM LINE TANGENT TO LOWER PART OF INNERMOST CIRCLE.
SS016 OVERLAP OF ALL THREE EVENTS
SS017 CLOSEUP OF "WINDOWS"
SS018 OVERALL VIEW OF NUB OF BOULDER LOOKING NORTH
EXAMINATION HAS SHOWN THAT THE FRACTURES THAT CREATE THE SHADOWS ARE
NATURAL. THE ADDITION OF THE PECKED CIRCLES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE
PRECISE SHADOW IS SOMETHING OF GREAT WONDER. WHO, WHY AND FOR WHAT REASON
DID SOMEONE DO THIS. WE SUSPECT THIS IS ABOUT 2,500 YEARS OLD.
THE MORNING EQUINOX MARKER WAS DISCOVERED BY ANN AND VINCENT YODER OF LONE
PINE, CALIFORNIA IN 1985 AND CONFIRMED IN 1986. IT HAS A COMPANION MARKER
THAT WORKS AT SUNSET.
