Fake Markings & Landscape of the Vicinity

Upon entering the territory, we found that spot of chiseled and marked stones with the stone face.  I have shown you earlier the stone face with an arrow pointing to it.  That arrow (right picture) actually points to the direction of the tunnel.

I took this picture if the stone outlined by a white chalk with my back facing the tunnel.


We continued to explore the area and went around the tunnel to observe more markings.  About 20 meters away, we saw another spot with several large solid rocks and observed the markings.  We noticed two large rocks which were flattened and disfigured with some meaningless markings on them. The diggers were responsible for destroying the original marks to confuse unwanted treasure hunters. Unwanted would mean those hunters they do not trust and can not make money from them.

Norman in maong is standing on the rock looking down, while the digger shows him some markings that were part of the original work of the Japanese. Unfortunately, it was so disfigured, it was not good to use it as a basis. We presume that the markings were so clear it would have been easy for other treasure hunters to guess where the deposits are.  To keep unwanted treasure hunters, the diggers disfigure the rocks.  We believe they took pictures of the original Japanese markings but were never shown to us.  I remember the diggers were always present and tailing us when we move around.  We observed that the diggers were trying to lead us elsewhere and would not answer some of our questions.

Anyhow, by following that arrow pointing to the stone face you would soon see the tunnel.  There is little guess work to do.  And, when the scanner was brought to the site, it made strong reading at certain positions, particularly near the tunnel entrance.

Riff rap was built on the left side of the tunnel to prevent the soil from eroding. (The picture below shows the riff rap on the right side.  The workmanship of the riff rap reveals unique well-planned work of art that the local town folks would not do such a thing for no reason.  The area was just a plain ordinary forbidden looking place, it would make no sense for anyone to create such work with finesse.  Only those with serious reason will such work be established in a forbidden place... interesting, huh.
                                                  
 
In this left picture, Norman together with two other men (unfortunately unclear in the picture) to his right are seated on the ground looking at the tunnel, discussing the Japanese story to him. On the right side is where the riff rap is located, several feet in length, maybe eight meters, and more than five feet high. 

I took this picture while I stood across the tunnel with my camera purposely showing the men seated and the riff rap on the right side.

Around the tunnel (tip of the point of arrow) are some large stones about 18" x 12" with markings on them too.  We believe they are original.  It appears that the diggers in that area were not as experienced and keen to detect the marks were actually from the Japanese.  You see unless you are experienced, have researched or widely read you really will not make any reading at all.
