Click a thumbnail to see its larger version and description.
A Bed cube painted by hand to resemble the lucky symbol of the province of Almería, (Andalucia, España).

The figure of the Indalo represents a man with his legs and arms open, holding an arch between his hands. It is related to one of the neolithic cave paintings of schematic typology discovered in the cave of "Los Letreros", Almeria. They date from 8500-3500 BC and were declared "World Heritage" by UNESCO on December 5, 1998. See image 15 for the original.
The "Indalo" is the talisman of the province of Almería and especially Mojácar. It has been used since ancient times, when its inhabitants painted it on the facades of their houses, in order to scare away the "evil eye" and preserve them from storms.
Solvingwise it is identical to the Bed Cube from the same inventor which has its own entry. This is better seen in image 14.
