TLDR: Geologic processes make some weird rocks. Some people attach meaning to weird rocks.

Good read though. Are these supposed to be the same stones in "Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom"?

I don't think you can hear hooves. I believe the original expression said hoofbeats

Oh yeah you're right. Thanks!
