    Well mars was a way station for our creators so it says in Sumerian mythology.

    I didn't say when I left it there, did I?

    Possibly 6 thousand years or more?

    Dammit, if Tyrsonswood says he left it there, isn't that enough for you?:)

    There's no reason that I couldn't have left that there over 6000 years ago... Look at the age on that. Had to be at least 6000 years.

    In that pic you can't see one single detail it seems. Could be just a light reflection on a very shiny stone...

    Anyway, that sounds very intriguing Irminsul. I wonder how it was put into words exactly (or at least in the translation.. ;)) Do you remember where you got that from? Or is it in every basic book about sumerian mythology?

    Yes, lets make the science and technology thread about Sumerian mythology.

    I wasn't suggesting that. Just was interested in what she said and where I could find more about it. Wouldn't take the thread in another direction at all if no one bothered to make a point of it ;)

    It kind of looks like the head of a ball peen hammer sticking up out of the dirt.

    You may have misunderstood. My comment wasn't about you. I would have posted what I did, regardless of your reply to the original mythology comment. That Sumerian Mythology was brought up at all as a possibility to consider should not be seen as anything but woo in this particular forum and should always be pointed out.

    To me it looks like a vein of ore got zarked by lightening and fused.

    I guess nobody noticed the "coca-cola" logo on it huh? Another piece of space junk due to Earthkind throwing out garbage into space............because according to Earth law....... "if it don't benefit Earth" ...... junk it.
