The letters look like backward and upside down and laying
on their side English characters. It also seems odd that a serious carver wouldnt use straight lines create a quality carving. All the phonecian tablets Ive seen the characters
were set on a line and there was no separation between the
characters. 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.

Sure does look like a hoax. I chiseled 1787 into a huge boulder and added the initials of a famous pioneer who would have been in the area at the time. Should have buried some indian trinkets. That always grabs the historians.

That is true with ancient Greek and Hebrew also.

This looks like a hoax!

Good call.

It was created at a Kinkos in Abilene, Texas.

Secret “codes” like that are among the easiest to break. Maybe not by me, but for those who make that sort of thing their lifes’ work.
