I'm talking about things affected by weathering. There are no square boulders in nature. They are weathered by wind, water and sand. If it were rocks or anything like that UNDERWATER they would be weathered until they were more round than perfectly square. I'm not sayin' it can't be something natural that looks artificial (see Bimini Road, but who's to stay that's natural as well), I'm just sayin' for all intents and purposes we can say it appears to be artificial, just by the look of the image.
And please, don't be so condescending.

You guys need to get out into nature more.
Tessellated pavement is a rare sedimentary rock formation that occurs on some ocean shores, so named because it fractures into square blocks that appear like tiles, or tessellations. It is formed when rock that has cracked through plate tectonic movement of the Earth's crust is modified by sand and wave action.
Tessellated Pavement Tasmania
Hexagonal Basalt at Giants Causeway Ireland
Honey Valley near Goreme Cappadocia, Turkey
Madagascar Tsingy Limestone formation weathered but definitely not round
Checker-Board Mesa, Zion National Park Utah
Black Rock Sands, near Bude Cornwall
No square lines in nature Huh??? Huh???

Every time when something goes out of the box of global (made up) understanding of the world you go aginst it with maths or some hard to read (so you can not understand) theories with lots of "science" like expressions. Do you know that the actual truth is everything that seems paranormal or it comes from granny's stories?
