This inscription was found at low tide after a major storm in April, 2010, along the beach in Newport, RI not far from the Newport Tower. The inscription reads, "IN HOC SIGNO VINCES," which is a Latin phrase translating to, "With this as your standard you shall have victory." The slogan has been used by various military and religious groups over the centuries, including the Knights Templar. On the back side of the stone there are other markings which we have not yet identified, but one marking appears to be a Templar cross. The stone has since been reburied in the sand by the surf, but we have marked its location and will return to study it further when weather and tidal conditions allow.

"IN HOC SIGNO VINCES"
Did any of the markings on the back side of the stone exhibit a 33:57:90 angle triangle?
There wasn't enough time to clean the stone to get a good sense of what the markings were. Obviously you have some kind of theory about this--care to share?
David: I specialize in earth/temple grids, using spiritual dynamics. I have a Zeno Chart graphic if interested, not intended for geographic use ... as a "consciousness" schematic ... same geometry used in Rosslyn, et al.
Also I can explain the so-called mysteries: use of "58" and Heads, various other matters of esoteric interest.
I'm more interested in email or skype connection rather than blog if doable, subjects can be complex.
David: RE the stone uncovered by the storm: did you find the inscription on the other side? Ostensibly the "SIGNO" would be on the reverse side of the STONE (RESH: Chief Head Stone).
"IN HOC SIGNO VINCES" was also used at Rennes le Chateau in the "Rex Mundi" symbolism: "Par Ce Signe Tu Le Vaincras" (By this sign you will conquer.)
Hi William. We haven't had a chance to uncover more of the stone yet--hopefully spring is here to stay and we can dive in soon...
Interesting comment re Rennes le Chateau.

David, I just saw this entry. Pretty exciting. Have you had a chance yet to return? Is there a Templar cross on the other side?
Charlie:
We have returned to examine the back side, but the carvings are too faded to be definitive about what they may be. It looks like there could be a Templar cross there, but again it is impossible to say for certain. We have also ascertained from some abutters that the carving is at least 60 years old and was considered "very old" even back circa 1950.
