The Marree Man is a 2.2 mile geoglyph, whose origins remain a mystery two decades after its discovery.
There are several theories as to who made it and why, ranging from members of the U.S. army to a local Australian artist, who died in 2002.
Nobody has come forward as its creator but a series of clues have been dropped, including a series of faxes from an anonymous sender. The faxes led to the discovery of an American flag near the geoglyph and a note citing the Branch Davidans—the U.S. religious cult involved inThe Americans are a popular theory, with many pointing to the U.S. flags and the Americanisms featured in the press releases distributed shortly after its discovery in 1998. The press releases featured imperial measurements terms such as"aboriginal reservations" that are not typically used by local people.
Another popular theory is that it was created by an eccentric artist from Alice Springs called Bardius Goldberg. In 2018, Richard Wedding, a realtor who said he became friends with Goldberg, told The Advertiser the artist said he was its creator in a deathbed confession, but had asked Wedding to tell no one.
