Krblin Jihn Kabin - pCalifornia - Kcymaerica — Abandoned Places, Gold Rush & Route 66 Travel Photography

Oh my, where to start. With a picture. Yes, that would be best. Keep in mind whilst reading and viewing this post, that there are a lot of art installations sprinkled across the desert surrounding Joshua Tree National Park.

I’m a huge fan of Joshua Tree National Park and the surrounding towns and mines. There’s so much to see in Joshua Tree, Yucca Valley, Twentynine Palms, Wonder Valley and beyond. That leads to to a lot of google map searches. I love street view!

Anything in “quotes” is taken directly from the website linked HERE. It appears to be the source I was looking for when searching for information regarding this interesting spot in the Mojave (Mjave).

So, who was Krblin Jihn and why is this Jackrabbit homestead of such interest? Well, to me, I like old abandoned places. And if there’s a history I can research and share, so much the better. And the story of this one is beyond belief.

“The entire site preserves the remnants of Krbilin Jihn’s cabin, including a remarkable 9 point Jihn Wranglikan Kmpass and it honors the place where Krblin Jihn, legendary interpreter of the Jihn Wranglikan bible, lived for most of his life. He was sekluded there after the end of the Otgon Civil War. This is the first Kcymaerxthaere Historical Site to be installed.”

I read about this kabin a year before I was finally able to visit, it’s definitely worth a look. Here’s a bunch of pictures, the first group being outside shots of the homestead:

“Bekause tradishnnal Jihn Wranglikan knstruktshinn required a triangular shape, Ntgen leaders were severe in their insistense that rektilinear buildings be built fr the sekluzhun. But many Jihn Wranglikan kabins were aktually knstructed by wrkmen sympathetik t’ their plight (thau nt their beliefs). They wuud smtimes kreate areassudg as this whidg wuud allau the frmashinn uv a triangular space in the kruuk uv the building fr wrshp—the famus “righteuss angle.”"

Now a few images from inside the kabin:

Inside the kabin, “Look closely at the words written on the walls or on the panels inside. For most English speakers and to some extent those who know the Cognate tongue, the words will be both familiar and a bit alien. The Jihn Wranglikans believed that the letters “c” and “o” were the most obscene and vulgar letters in the English language. As a result they removed them from their literature and writings nonturies ago (a nontury is just over 80 linear years). Naturally this began to influence their speech and their literature as their new tongue evolved. In addition, over time they began to “borrow” words from other tongues.”

There are quite a few “scriptures” written either on the remaining walls or on some kind of material that was then applied to the walls. A lot of it is peeling away.

One of the coolest features in the kabin, is the nine point compass on the floor of the main room. “Most homestedler cabins had a Jihn Wranglikan 9 point compass somewhere inside. Such compasses were critical to the Wranglikan rituals and practices. All devout Jihn Wranglikans consulted theirs regularly. However, it was unusual (but not unheard of) for a home’s compass to be carved into the floor. This tells us something about Krblin Jihn’s stature in both his own and the Notgeon community.”

“First, notice that, although there is no North, their South (marked with a notch) is essentially the same as linear South. They had no need for North, all of their ceremonies were directed towards the pCalifornian (p is silent) Jerusalem near the present-day Salton Sea. Indeed, the primary fact of life for the sekluded Jihn Wranglikans was their separation from their Holy Sites, virtually all of which were in the south—which, after all, had been the basis of the Otgon Civil War. If you spend time at the fence that surrounds this cabin, you will see the direction of various Kymaerican locales, all based on this compass. The residents of this cabin would have known these by heart.”

An interesting map on the ceiling, marking the holy places in relation to the kabin. It looks relatively new, maybe a reproduction of an older one?

The story of this place is fascinating, perhaps a stretch to say the least, but definitely worth visiting if you’re in the area. It’s picturesque way beyond compare.

Please visit the link included, just below the first picture in this post, to check out the site with all the information. It goes into great depth about Jihn, his religion and way of life. I’ve just barely touched on it here. Plus, reading through it confused me 😕 and gave me a headache. Take a look, you’ll read about all the stuff I left out. The SECRETS.

Thanks for reading! Please leave a comment below if you enjoyed the words or pictures. And if you happen to know of any information regarding this kabin’s early history, I’d love to hear about it. The Jackrabbit Homestead history is amazing, check this link to learn more about it - HERE.
