I found this ring on the beaches of san diego, I just can't quite figure out the markings , Has anyone ever seen anything like it. :?:

It sure leave a heckuva imprint on someone's forehead :shock:

Snowy · Jul 16, 2006

Are there any markings on it, on the inside perhaps?

Sure does have an interesting design.

Secret decoder ring!!!! :lol:

Although the ring may be recent, the design looks to be Aztec, or Mayan. :?:

Unless I'm mistaken I think that the symbols are a representation of the Mayan calendar. :?:

Hoser/Tony - I do believe you're on the money with Central/South American Indian tribes - Aztec or Maya.

Thanks for the responses,
Felix how curtain are you on the mayan theory and do you know of a web site to resurch this?

Snowy
There's nothing else to this ring just your basic silver ring.

Thanks for the help guys, After a little research I was able to find that it is in fact a Aztec calander.

Awesome ring! Sure it's not part of that cursed treasure from Pirates of the Carribean? Go stand in the moonlight and see if your flesh disappears! :lol:

Nice ring!

FelixtheCat · Jul 17, 2006

Rusty - glad to see you got good info. from others. I was pretty certain just from a lot of historical TV stuff I have seen, plus I have been to Mexico and have seen similar stuff at their pyramids.

WThesing · Jul 17, 2006

Now that Tony has mentioned it, he is right. It is probably a product of Mexico, as they are big in "tourist silver", and your location lends itself to that.
