Geocache Description:

Cache is not at posted coordinates!


I have discovered a lost language!


I shall call it...."Globe-ish!"


Many years ago when I was on a geocaching trip in the middle east, I found a small stone with some strange markings on it. I kept it over many years without any clue of what it meant. But then one day I realized that it was a sort of "Rosetta Stone" for a long lost language.

Strangely enough, after I figured out what was on it, I realized that it leads to a secret treasure! What is even more odd is that I had the knowledge of this language all along, and so do you! It is universally understood, hence the name! It's just getting past the symbols that was the hard part!

The key understanding this language is patience. You will need to retrace my research and possibly use a tool to solve the puzzle.

As with any puzzle, I have provided you several subtle clues...and possibly a red herring or two :)

Figure out what keyword is written on the stone and enter it into the geochecker!

Good luck!
