Peewie, it seems the orange dot around New Delhi has already been spotted before, and as for the yellow spot in East China, that's probably Dongying; because from what we know right now, a yellow dot indicates that one of the artifacts indicated by that omphalos has already been recovered, as is the case for Dongying.
We're still not sure what the orange dot means though.

My New Delhi dot is clearly orange.
I can see see two other points on the same image that are clearly red and there's a huge difference at least on my screen.
Red dots are Boise and Porto Alegre.
And I also see a yellow dot in China, that must be Dongying.

Yeah, some people have reported seeing the Stephenville dot in red a few times too (long after both artifacts were found), myself included. For now, we think it's just a map glitch, because typing in Stephenville in the secret site isn't yielding any new information.

You know... well, you know how we're pretty sure that the first and second artifacts are equidistant from their Omphalos? I was fiddling with a map, and I think that the second artifact from Lunglei could possibly be St. Petersburg or Rome, or somewhere around either of those. They both fit my rough calculations. Any thoughts? As for Dongying, somewhere around Changsha (still in China) or Seoul (in S. Korea). Do we have any Koreans playing, just in case?

The Ribnitz/Damgarten dot for me is purple. It and the Stephenville dot are showing up at the same time and they appear to be the same color (which looks purplish)
Anyone else see this?

Haven't seen them, but it would make sense if that is the colour they turn when both artifacts have been recovered...

DONGYING does not as yet have a second set of navigation directions. Only NEW/DELHI leads to TOKYO.

looks like as of now we are getting 2 equidistant "artifact location" per OMPH.
Just a heads up, the second equidistant for Boise, could be San Francisco, CA or Las Vegas, NV. Anyone in those areas might want to keep an eye out for updates.

Yes both look good but i have to vote for VEGAS!!
At this rate we have half of the Omphali (is that a word?) identified.
Assuming ,of course, the continuation of 2 artifacts per.....

Give me a call if the site turns out to be Vegas - you know I'm all over that (with pictures/scans).
