So up the road from where I live is this old as fuck gravestone it has no names or dates, just the cross carved on both sides. It looks like an old Spanish cross to me, not positive. Any ideas? Also old cemetery thread
Shameless self bump
Part of the world? Closer pic?
Only way to solve this mystery is to start digging and find out who's buried there.
Op you're a lucky man. That's actually one of the many ways pirates would mark their buried treasure.

Where are you from? Read up on history of your place, then you might find out.

Central Alabama and I don't have a better picture at the moment >>17172945
I had thought about it honestly, could be some treasure
>>17172951
Too far inland for pirate treasure, but possible Spanish gold or just some bones either way pretty cool in my book
The same cross?

DIG IT UP OP

Dig around it and post pictures op don't be lame
To get your answer, OP, is to dig it up. If you're feeling scared, bring a friend along then.

Wouldn't there be more around?

Nowhere near scared to dig it up would rather run a metal detector over it first though just to make sure it would be worth the effort

I believe this could be some ancient evil ritual. It involves burring the body face down and putting a long narrow rock like seen in the pic in the hole. Most of the rock is buried and meant to crush in the head put the tip protrudes as an unmarked head stone. Sometimes they have a symbol on them but never any names or dates. This ritual is meant to bind the soul to the exact spot the corpse is buried in the cold dark ground.
looks kind of like a templar cross
Where in Alabama? Any chance you can take the LAT and LON coordinates and post?

It's small. Maybe it was a kid.
There's an old as fuck gravestone in the local cemetry and it has skull and cross bones on it.
>>17174119
That's pretty cool wonder why

On the walker county line and not posting any coordinates, for your benefit not mine, just saying you don't wanna fuck around in my neck of the woods, unless you've made peace with whatever god you pray to. We shoot first and hide the body and don't even bother asking questions

200 years is a long time, people and nature move stuff

A little more than telling me its on the Walker County line would be useful. County line near where? I don't plan on driving from Texas to look at this, but knowing where it is could help identify what it is. Unless this is RP, then tell me so I can stop wasting my time.

thats not true though when i was in arkansas there were plenty of (small) treasure finds
Dont dig that shit up.
Leave it for future generations.
>>17172187
That could also be a KKK cross...dig it up OP
>>17176278
To dig up?
>>17174935
What's to RP? Honestly just thought it was something cool to discuss and wasn't saying that you would be the one coming out this way but considering the population of this board I'd rather not risk it.
