Drogue
Anchor Stone |
|
| The
Anchor Stones had
specially designed
holes; traditionally
found on drogue anchors.
Larger on one side,
smaller on the other
side, larger still
in the middle. The idea
being that you tie a
knot on the end of a big
rope and feed it through
the hole in the anchor
stone so that it catches
on the small side. When
the anchor is put in the
water, the rope swells
up in the middle of the
hole and prevents the
rope from wearing into. |

Traditional
Drogue Anchor Hole |

Note:
Drogue anchors are
designed to drag in the
water, stabilize a ship
and keep it
perpendicular to the
oncoming waves; not to
prevent it from moving.
This
type of drogue anchors,
which have broken away,
are sometimes found on
the floor of the
Mediterranean and other
seas as they were common
to ancient ships.
Ron observed crosses on
the anchor stones.
Some
of the anchors seem to
have had eight original
crosses carved on them.
These crosses are
Byzantine style which
indicates that someone
after 300 A.D.
recognized these
anchorstones as having a
connection with Noah's
Ark and carved the
crosses at that time. |

| An
earthquake causes the
soil surrounding the
"boat shaped
object" to fall
away, exposing as much
as thirty feet of the
sides. |
