 		On the new Image if you start from F, the begining the the rune alphabet you get the start F.U,T or (TH as it should be) A, R and the C,K Furthark But then the alphabet swiches and you have to go anticlockwise from the F to go in the correct order,

We are looking for something with four letters/digits to enter into the box

T and I aswell as another rune which I think could be NG have not been translated "Ting" not correct Sad

Correct, it is the Futhark alphabet with the I-T-NG missing and a few other variations as stated in the previous post.

ICE, The God TIW, and The God ING

Number in Futhark alphabet: 11 - 17 -22

Edit: Humorously enough the coordinates:
-36.270, -111.722
Lead to a place between... Yup South-America and N.Z....

Great minds think alike? ^_~

I'm stuck here though.

Edit: the text at the top is 'Learn'... Learn what?... On the Rosetta-Stone.php link it clearly says Futhark Table...

Edit2: Understood: the Futhark Table is the Rosetta Stone to find the solution.

Rosetta Stone is a manner of figurative speech:
Wikipedia wrote:
The term Rosetta Stone has become idiomatic as something that is a critical key to a process of decryption or translation of a difficult problem.


Didn't we just do that....?

 		Maybe this is worth looking in to

Maybe more research into what this famous object is?

 		The Rosetta stone was created in 196BC the artifact that adam found (he says) is 500,000 years old

Edit :: Could the reference to the rosetta stone mean that the futhark table is "our rosetta stone " a way we can translate

Edit again: At 500,000 BC humans discovered fire

Did some google-attempts which led to mostly gift shops...

Indeed the Futhark Table is our Rosetta stone.
However, the discoveries we made thus far seem unsuccessful.
What on earth are we missing this time?

Perhaps a third pair of eyes? (Read: Where on earth is everyone else!?)

xD at least join mibbit-chat then since I'm talking to myself there.

Also tried the following:
Translated LEARN to Futhark, and then translated it back to English by the use of the Futhark Table which resulted in EARN... Incorrect unforunately. There goes my creative attempt.

Edit:
On the main site, there are 3 Runes in yellow as well:
D - C,K - J,Y

Nah I have to head out in a few minutes.

I've been trying to decode the stuff in the middle around the orange F, but nothing's been coming out of that so far.

The yellow ones are:
TOR, GJ,Y ORD, W,V OTG

in Armanen Futhark there are only three: Mensat (Humanity), Beast (Beast), Gott (God).

Edit: Why is the image called map-unlock.gif?...

 		Wow nice, I go away for a night and all this information comes forth. Holy hell... Way to go!

But now we're looking for this four digit pass?

 		Hi, I'm new here, and have followed your discussion awhile, well, the letters on the "map-unlock" don't seem runes but Latin letters ti me and they seem to read: I, VIPZS BEML ODFUTARC, KGV, WHN.
I think that's a code, somehow? Smile
And then it says "Learn" above the picture, googling "Learn futarc" or learn Runes" seems to leaqd to some OOG-sites...
Hope I don't tell you too old stuff
best regards
Fabs

Already wondered where you were Leyton.
We managed to gather some information on the new puzzle, but definitely not all since I feel it's quite safe to say; 'We're stuck once again uncle Doyon'.

Nevertheless, to answer your question: yes it does seem that the key is of four digits.

Seems unlike: the letters correspond with the futhark alphabet in that particular order.

What we need to figure: is why the letters I - T - and Ng are missing. There has to be a reason for that. One of the possibilities is that these three make up coordinates: 11 - 17 -22 as suggested in a previous post.... Did I mention we're stuck?

 		Guys I might be stating a completely obvious point here but.

Using drejl's comment here as a pinpoint.

Would it not be a good idea [and JUST a suggestion which is probably going to go nowhere] To calculate and try combining, the already found co-ord's we have to which we previously have found no use for, to this Alphabet?
