Here is the same image as shown above, but look what happens when the image is turned upside down.

What can be seen is typical of Martian artwork.

qmantoo, I have prepared another image.

The arrows point to the cranial protrusions.

With some of the sculptures you may find that you are little confused as the cranial protrusion on one head and face forms the nose of another face.

qmantoo, sorry you couldn't see the features. I will post an image showing a small number.

Apologies to everyone for not posting an image reference.

Here is the reference:

But I agree that all "persons" on Mars have the specificity. It would be interesting to compare terrestrial casual formationsconfuse

Here боле less significant persons. But I consider their not too convincing. Such formations can be found in any of volcanic breeds of Mars

I am sorry, but I still cannot see any faces in this lot or any protruding foreheads either. I know it is my problem and not a problem with the image.

This is why I asked you to pick out three and highlight the features for thickos like me who cannot see them. If they are so obvious, it should be easy to do this. Just circling features and leaving it up to us to interpret is not what it is all about. We do that with our own investigations, but it is yours that you are showing in this thread.

When something is slightly more 'fringe' it really helps people like me who cannot see the feature to have two images side-by-side and on one, outline what you have found so that we can compare with the original.

Thanks for that Frutty.

If one looks carefully there are even more shapes to see.

All I can say is, the 'people' belonging to the civilization that worked these carvings and sculptures had exceptional skills.

No doubt about it Timewarp, I can see them clearly as the light of day too.

Good work!

The image shown below is a sectional crop of the main image as shown above which I have resized.

qmantoo said show three examples, but in this image I have shown quite a number to place the sculptured work in context.

Remember, this is just one rock. There are many rocks where similar anthropomorphic example can be observed if you search for them. Some of them stand out very well whilst others take a little longer to find.

Please note that many of the examples display a cranial protrusion.

Have a look and see what you think about the examples shown.

To help people see what you see, maybe you mark 3 of the best and enlarge them and annotate them. That way we can all appreciate what you have found.

In particular, show some good examples of protruding foreheads so that visitors can see the detail. I have looked at the link you gave and it does show an example from Stonehenge, but show them on these martian rocks too.

Levelwind, you are perfectly correct. On this planet, animal shapes and faces etc can be seen all over the place. Some people see the shapes in clouds, in the soil or on rocks. In fact, they can be found in a host of different places.

On Mars it would seem that many rocks on the terrain are displaying these shapes. They would appear to be sculptured carvings in the texture of the rock. Some can be indentified quite easily, whereas others can only be identified through sheer concentration, but if one looks hard enough its amazing what can be identified.

What I found interesting about this particular rock is the number of anthropomorphic carvings in just one place.

Nice picture Timewarp.  I see what OBrien is saying, we use to have a telephone pole behind our old house that had a perfect totem pole in it.  Nobody really noticed until I pointed it out, and then they would freak out about it. Starting at bottom in the grain of the wood there was a bears head with an eagle over him then a racoon and a salmon topped off by a wolfs head.  It was pretty neat,  everyone loved that telephone pole.  What I like about the picture you found is it looks organic to me.  Almost like an old tree stump with some kind of moss growing on it.  Anyways, thanks for the find. I had a lot of fun looking at it.

O'Brien wrote,

"I see no reason to ascribe artistic intent here, any more than in finding similar looking faces in thousands of Earth rocks."

It would appear that O'Brien feels I am suffering from a severe case of pareidolia. My response to O'Brien is, if you do some research into the subject you will see for yourself.

In reply to O'Brien's quote. Many sophisticated sculptures and carvings can be found on Earth rocks and stones especially on the stones of the huge megalithic monuments which were built during the neolithic and successive periods. The main feature about the anthropomorphic carvings found on Mars and the carvings found on the monuments on this planet is that the heads display a cranial protrusion.

You've circled a hundred places on a well-textured scene. Only a few even qualify as reasonably decent cases of pareidolia. I get a better ratio on my bathroom floor tile.

Something more substantial is required to turn "It looks like a face" into "It's a carving of a face."

I see no reason to ascribe artistic intent here, any more than in finding similar looking faces in thousands of Earth rocks.

The image shown below was captured by the camera onboard the Mars Exploratory Rover (MER) 'Spirit' during sol 492 and is a true-colour L456 composite.

What can be seen on this one rock is very sophisticated martian art-work.

There is evidence similar to this on many rocks but the carvings are usually disregarded by the scientific community due to being mistaken for the general surface structure and appearance of the rock. You have to have a keen eye to notice the carvings as they are very tiny with some more prominent than others.

The give-away that the heads and faces are real carvings is the inclusion of a small cranial protrusion on the top of some of the heads.

Please have a look all at the circled anomalies to see if they appear as anthropomorphic carvings to you.
