There's an abandoned island in the Pacific with no vegetation except for these palm trees. The next nearest island is 200km away.

The trees seem to be arranged in a meaningful pattern. Does anyone else think it looks like a symbol?

It does seem odd they would arrange themselves in lines like that.

Perhaps some poor fucker got shipwrecked there once, planted a weirdly arranged grove of palms to try and get dat yummy coco-nut, and died before the plants matured? His bones would have sunk into the sand long ago, and the weird grove could remain.

There was a Guano settlement on the Island, perhaps the sailors planted some trees for the fuck of it? Not like there would be much else to do.

>>18239372

What kinda' weirds me out about this is where these trees are growing.

I'm not a biologist, but why are these trees growing on damn beach? I know palm-trees can grow on beaches, but this doesn't seem like a very natural place for them to pop up.

That was a building/settlement for the guano miners, that worked there in the 19th century.

>>18239372
The palms might also be in such a pattern because of workers. Maybe they planted them that way. Maybe it is the result of relocating the shitting spot, or they planted them alongside some tends

>>18243064
Why are there lines leading to it like it was dragged around?

>>18243042
haha wtf that looks like a UFO crash with a trail.

>>18243068
I think it is just a littly road. Maybe they even had a wagon with which they pulled the guano to their base

The guano mining part seems to be a historical fact:

About the road, I think it really looks like an eroded road and it is just a logical conclusion, since they obviously had to bring that shit from the inner island to the beach

Trees don't pop up wherever theyou like it. Trees pop up wherever the seed can survive and take root. If it was up to trees the Fulkerson would be covering everything space inch of this planet
