A T. REX ATTACKS A NORTH AMERICAN LIONFollowing along the edge of the black, upper left-hand corner of this stone's image, you will find a T. Rex. If your monitor isn't set brightly enough, you won't be able to find it. If it is set brightly enough, you will be able to find this T. Rex: it is shown in a standing position, facing to the left (as a solid black image on the white background). You can clearly see the head; two white dots as eyes; the body, with its arched, humped back; the tail pointing out behind it; and the legs below it. The legs join into the ears of a short faced bear's head (presented as an assemblage of facial features); these ears are also the outline of distant mountains, indicating the T. Rex's local environment.The T. Rex's head has two modes of presentation (sub-grouping): with the small white-dot eyes, as mentioned above and, with the eyes presented as large white circles (with thin black outlines) vertically arranged on the extreme left of the T. Rex's head. The large-circle eyes group with the area below the neck of the white-dot eyed version: this area becomes the open mouth of the T. Rex, as presented in a wide-eyed (large-circle eyes) attack. Such shifting between sub-groupings within this image nicely illustrates the way in which the non-metrical, as characteristic of time, presents "things that vary from themselves". When the white-dot eyes version of the T. Rex is sub-grouped, a small detail can be noticed sticking out from the side/back of the T. Rex's head. It presents the head of a North American lion, which the T. Rex is in the process of devouring. The lion's head is shown protruding from the mouth of the T. Rex in much the same way as the mastadon's head is shown on the 4-sided T. Rex stone presented above. Immediately to the right of the short faced bear head (which is below the standing T. Rex) is a close-up (as solid black images) of the attack by the T. Rex upon the North American lion. There, the T. Rex's head is presented, facing right, with its mouth opening...just before it bites down on the lion, also shown as a solid black image facing right. Just above and to the right of the lion is a dire wolf, presented as a solid black image, with its body facing right and its head turned left to face in the lion's direction. The white eyes and white mouth of the wolf can be clearly distinguished, as can its pointy little (black) ears. Further to the right, at about the same level as the dire wolf and also facing right as a solid black image, there is a running mammoth.
