Hello all...my two cents on this is based on my time spent in the "big sandbox" during the First Gulf War, Desert Shield/Storm.
I was an Infantryman with the 101st Airborne Div(Air Assault) and we spent a lot of time crisscrossing the desert in our helicopters.
I believe what we see in these pictures is the remains of the hundreds or thousands of troop encampments, ammunition supply points, hospitals, fighting positions, artillery battery's, etc.
We dug in at every location we were at during the build up and often had the help of heavy equipment from our engineer support units to dig/push up berms for our hummers. The Armor units around us had considerably more extensive trenches and fighting positions as well. The extent of these emplacements was hard to describe but keep in mind that just in my division there were over 5000 vehicles, 450+ rotorcraft, and 25,000 troops. And the coalition forces numbered over 750,000 troops in theater. That's lots of tents, bunkers, trenches, chow tents, latrines, support facilities, shops, and so on... spread out all over the country.
Again, just my opinion.
Cheers!
Several units from the 101st AD, including the 1st and 2nd Armored Divisions, as well as the UK 1st AD used this site and several other surrounding ground positions as base OPS in Desert Storm '91. More recent uses of these armored vehicle emplacements I would have to pour through maps to find, but that is as ancient as these sites are - about 10-24 years.

Hey, I was just messing around on google maps and I came across some weird 'structures' in the sands in Saudi Arabia.
Does anyone have any idea what these are?

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I really truly believe after viewing these pictures that you are looking at ancient remains of the Biblical Exodus of the Hebrew Children. The REAL Mount Sinai "IS" in Saudi Arabia, as they took that circuitous route. It's my understanding that the Saudi Mount Sinai is the place where God's glory came down and rested on the top of the mountain. It is blackened because of it.
The markings look more angelic, as in angel's wings, than like eyelashes as one writer wrote.
I've already sent these to Biblical Prophecy Teacher and Scholar Perry Stone to get his take on these.
When and IF I hear back from him, I'll let you all know!
This is a most magnificent find, if these images are what I believe them to be!
More proof that the Biblical narration is quite simply SO MUCH MORE than mere oral traditions.
Baruch ha Shem!

Cool pics. This one reminds me of a fort with watch towers or look out points in all 4 corners. Then a series of squares forming a line. Perhaps where shops and wares were sold. Interesting nonetheless.
