Mystery Stone
Robert Hoath La Folette, author of The Rock That Gives Every Word Wished, claims that it is a 4,000-year-old message left by Navajo ancestors who emigrated from the Palestine-Phoenician region.
Dixie L. Perkins, author of The Meaning of the New Mexico Mystery Stone, translated it as a 2,500-year-old tale left by the Greek explorer Zakyneros. Other interpretations define it as being the location of a lost treasure buried by ancestors of the Pueblo of Acoma, a message left by one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, a prank carried out by college students in the 1930s, or perhaps even a message of extraterrestrial origins.
Whatever the case may be, the circumstances surrounding this inscription are mysterious, giving the Mystery Stone its well-deserved name.
