'Iconic': Human Tree Truck

'Iconic'
Human Tree Truck
Oklahoma 11/1/2012


During the upgrade of a few highways in Oklahoma, this tree was cut down because of a termite infestation. But, the tree behind it is what this post is about.

Planted during the settlements of the Oklahoma territory in the early 1900's Land Acquisitions, wind breaks were aligned along the southwest wind flow. For those new to this, Oklahoma has the most powerful wind storms in the USA.

During the planting of this wind break, a girl or possibly a boy was buried beneath the standing tree in the rear tree. The image in the tree trunk is the reason KAPB says this. Either of the two died, or was murdered, and a baby tree was planted directly on top of their corpse. With the human enzymes slowly invading the small plant, the two became one...with the exception to the human's form taking shape in the tree trunk. As humans live off of the soil, it is a matter of physical science that is relativity simple.

This kind of horticulture makes identifying the dead person very easy as an exact image of the person will be seen in the trunk and bark. What's also is clever here is the image of two dogs on the other side of the trunk. They must have been buried at the same time. If you are ever in Norman, OK you can visit all of them at the old tree wind break between Alameda and Main, in other words, Walmart and BK(burger king).
