Here is my video of our visit to Judaculla Rock near Cullowhee, NC in August of 2021. A little tough to find. No sign once off the main road. A beautiful site. The carved images are much more viewable with the naked eye. #cullowhee #cullowheenc #judaculla #judacullarock #judacullarocknc #northcarolina https://youtu.be/6R1OfvyCrgU

Judaculla Rock is really a beautiful thing—a memento of times, cultures, wisdom and life gone by. So sad that it was vandalized. #judaculla #rock #judacullarock #historicsite #past #petroglyph #words #petroglyphs #life #archaeology #wisdom #cherokee (at Judaculla Rock)

This man's farm is a goldmine, full of precious little riches that the native people have known about for thousands of years. What a gift that he shares it with the world. #judacullarock #judaculla #buttercups #farm #idyllic #serene #love

Judaculla Rock: Judaculla is known as the Slant-Eyed Trickster Giant/Hunt God of the Appalachian Mountains in Western North Carolina.  He was said to be extremely tall and skinny as a pole; a very "Jack Skellington" physique.  There have been reports of other creatures fitting this description in the past, called "Nexus Crawlers."  Apparently he was so skinny and so tall that you could walk right by him in the woods and not notice him, because he would look just like a tree.  Judaculla had a rock that marked his territory, which he carved strange symbols all over. The Native Americans that lived near Judaculla's Rock viewed the place as sacred, and would send young boys up there to spend the night as a right of passage. If Judaculla didn't take them, they would return the next morning as men. In this photo, taken in the 1930's, the markings on Judaculla's Rock were filled in with chalk, and for the first time clearly visible in a photo. The spidery-looking marks in the lower right-hand corner, are said to be his hand and foot-prints. He had seven digits on his hands, and strange, bird-like feet. The place is known as a paranormal hot-spot.
