Source of Crop Circle on SOTA page FOUND!
Doug Bower and Dave Chorley started making crop circles in the 1970's. They started a group called Circle Makers who are commissioned as artists to make large crop circle advertisements and large sand advertisements... Guess what other Microsoft viral marketing campaign they helped out with? Yup, HEX-168...

When and where this particular one came from, I am not sure, but they definitely did it. Could be an old picture, but it's another direct tie to Microsoft. Woohoo, like we didn't already know that MS was behind this. Not quite a breakthrough, but it killed some time... a lot of time. :(

Looks very familiar, no? (For those who don't know, it was the Covenant language used on the old H2 website)

Anyways, good find!

Anyone know where the hand print on the rock is from?

I don't think it's real. Could be wrong, though.

I can almost swear that I've seen a picture of that handprint before in a rock. I don't believe it's fake. I may just be nuts, but yeah.

Or not. The description reads:

"Hand shaped print found in limestone. 110 million years old."

Not N'Challa's.

A forerunner hand 'eh?

Or even foot perhaps, how do they know it's actually a hand print?

Just because it looks like one may not mean it is..

As entertaining as this line of discussion may be, how does this have anything to do with the ARG? We already know the information we are receiving is fictional.

If a crop circle shows up in the form of the glyph, that might be worth discussing here.
