This has been one of the most interesting things I've ever seen or even heard about intend to go to the Rock and look at it face-to-face well face to rock anyway..

My best friend and I went and honestly this was one of the most interesting places I've ever been/seen and/or even heard of. The Judaculla Rock Police/Security Force were even a little lax on us after seeing that I was disabled by not arresting us or putting us in the JRDC ( Judaculla Rock Detention Center ).

Thank you...

Great history mystery. It was so good of the landowners to set aside this land and this archaeological site for the public to enjoy. The ancient civilization that was responsible for making this set of inscriptions is long gone and it's meaning may be lost, but the beauty of it's mystery is alluring to so many who see it. The place is tranquil and beautiful. Highly recommend a visit. It takes about 15 minutes to come see and read all about it. I could spend hours...

Judaculla Rock is very awe inspiring. To stand there and see some of the carvings that are still seeable and think about the people who left this behind. I'd love to know more of the history of this rock but there are just things that we'll never know. A little off the beaten path but a wonderful little drive, along a running creek, through the countryside and a neat piece of history to enjoy as you stretch your legs. I've been several times and will...

His is a hidden gem. I first visited this site 24 years ago and again in 2023. While there have been great updates to the area around the rock with wooden ramps and informative displays the rock itself looks very discolored and worn. I recommend seeing it before it gets to the point that you can't make out the carvings. The state should really do something to clean up the rock or protect it from weathering.

A free cultural attraction with tremendous history within the indigenous community. The story is a great giant claimed this area and had to be carefully approached for permission to hunt on his land. That giant is believed to have produced the glyphs on this rock. The glyphs are said to be the oldest in North America. Approach with respect, for this site is sacred to the indigenous people.
