Back story that most likely everyone knows.  A Monolith appeared on the far side of the moon in the movie "2001, a space odyssey".  Movie was adapted from a one page SciFi story where the monolith was placed there by aliens.  It's purpose was to alert the aliens when we had evolved enough to go to the moon, find the monolith and break it, thereby stopping the transmission.  Last line in the story was something like "Older civilizations are usually jealous of younger ones".

Good story. Makes you wonder, but I say use common sense and look at the evidence to solve this: What is it made of? How deep in the ground does it go? How recently disturbed does surrounding soil appear to be? Where's the closest town? Answer a bunch of questions like this, and it could be solved...……...or it could just become more mysterious... MOOOHAHA!!!!!

Maybe it points to the crevasse in the rock where there is an entrance to a tunnel that leads to the Money Pit on Oak Island.
" A monolith found in the desert in southern Utah that points to the Monet Pit?"  ;D

Well, it looks like it's already been found on Google maps. Someone from Reddit posted cordinates.
38°20'35"N 109°39'58"W
Not far from a dirt road and maybe a mile hike.
Date of birth/build is sometime between 2014-16.
If you look closely there are cuts in the rock from a concrete saw.
People are already flocking to it and posting videos.

It didn’t take long for a person to show up to this 6 hour drive to claim the first picture with it!

Here’s the link:


Utah monolith: Internet sleuths got there, but its origins are still a mystery
BBC News

The metal monolith sits deep in a desert easy to get lost in, so officials did not reveal its location.

I saw on the news that it had disappeared. I don't know if that means stolen or removed. BLM said from the beginning they were concerned that someone might be hurt trying to visit it. That reminds me of the bus the bear guy was living in in Alaska and got eaten by the bears. Several people had to be "rescued" trying to visit the bus so they removed it with a helicopter. With all the satellite imaging I'm pretty sure the BLM knows a lot more than they are saying. I'm sure it is all some kind of stunt. I had an old couch mysteriously turn up by the road to my place. It's on BLM land and I wish it would disappear.

NOTE: BLM here is Bureau of Land Management not the other newer more notorious rioters.

Stolen, or removed by whoever put it there. It's just amazing to me that they were able to get it out of there, with all of the publicity and all.

Another one popped up in commiefornia and then destroyed.
Funny how the news is all over the place on who did it , which was live streamed .
One news channel says --- it was a group of teenagers.
Another says it was a Christian group.
Another says --- a racist Christian group.
Another says --- Trump supporters.
Im sure others will say it's trumps fault.

Moab has always had purists that dont like any changes. Seeing the monolith disappear didn't surprise any Utah'ns. A few years ago they tried changing the sign to Negro Bill canyon (a tribute to the first black man to own a ranch in the area) and renaming it William Grandstaff canyon.
The new sign was stolen the first day it was up.😄

A new monolith was erected at a local stainless steel company. He says people can come look, take pics, give it a hug, what have you.

" And the names they are a'changin'" I think Bob Dylan wrote that or something like that. It sorta' goes with the old nursery rhyme "statues, statues they all fall down"  ::)
