Doesn’t really look old to me. The writing is still white after more than 600 years? Not likely.

“Scholars who have studied the stone say it pre-dates the arrival of Columbus to America”
How so?
I can see some happy go lucky, educated, educated Spanish explorer types tired of all the Catholicism deciding to leave a prank to confound the church which was the main settlement influence of the area in the time before the 1800’s.

Meant to include that the pranksters were Jewish.

If they find one on Mars, that would be real news.

There is no patina. The lettering is white with no wear. The whole article makes me want to say “eye roll”. I did a search and cannot find conformation on this find (doesn’t mean its not there just couldn’t find it).

I would suspect the Mormons in anything involving Hebrew script and the south west United States.

Oh, I see. I checked most of your links and they refer back to mormon sites. Well that makes sense then that you posted this.
Should have checked the links first.

A claim as fantastic as pre-Columbian Hebrews carving the Decalogue in New Mexico needs evidence stronger than that provided by this article. According to one article it was first found in 1936 any date referring to the stone before 1936 was stated to be unconfirmed. Those familiar with Mormon history would be aware that they studied Hebrew.

“Early 1800s?”
This smells of Sidney Rigdon, Mormon extraordinaire. He was trained in Hebrew.

My first thought is: I hope this stone is protected from graffiti.
