Can we find which tribe used:
(Second ring)
North =White
East = Yellow
South = Red
West = Black
According to: http://princetonol.com/groups/iad/lessons/middle/color2.htm
these four colors in this array, are the "Medicine Wheel".
one or two other sites have different colors for the directions.. however this site also has these colors being attributed to these directions.

On this arrangement, I found this:
http://ioway.nativeweb.org/culture/colors_and_directions.htm
The writer seems to be writing from personal knowledge, but also remarks that the colors change for different ceremonies.

That is definitely text. I'm still trying to get a clear enough image to be able to read it though.
I also pulled the 43_photo.gif apart and found no obvious image clues.. It might need to be destegged ( I have no idea what the key could be though).

Here is the result of contrasting & sharpening the hell out of that image X posted.
Then I decompiled the swf to get to what the missing ascenders on the 1st and 4th letters were.
Close as i can tell:

its a derivative of blackjack. there is a 2 card winning hand and several 2 card auto losses. If we can figure out what the cards represent we should be able to beat it

Here are the Mayan number glyphs from this pdf link: famsi.org glyph guide
When I get a chance, I'll edit this later to just the glyphs that are used.
eta: Attached are the glyphs used in the game with their numeric value. I haven't seen 10 (Lajun in Mayan) used in the game yet, so I've left both glyphs for that one. I mention it because we've been told to always look for what is mssng.
The words xaman, lakin, nohol, and chikin are north, east, south, and west in Mayan. Their colors white, red, yellow and black are the same inner circle colors from the "direction.jpg" .
edit 2: MerRabbit found the ten, so I've updated the list.

I'm new to this ARG, and I'm very exited that it's about Jericho. I found something interesting at that website. Theres references to a Halloran Farm, which is a real farm in Jeffersonville, New York.
