Astonishing photos! Did you ever read Wilson's Bowl.Phyllis Webb? Her poem about a similar bowl on Salt Spring Island.

Was intrigued by the pic of the Carib Stone in an earlier post so it is wonderful to read this detailed account here.

Also, a beautifully written final paragraph by Chamoiseau (name roughly translates, maybe, to room of bird[s]), "bearing the unknown tablets of a new poetry".
