What about when the time of Mammals is done, and the next inhabitant has a chitinous exoskeleton? I’m not sure they’d recognize bones as a sign of this place being dangerous.
If I know there was a message a more advanced civilization was trying to tell me, fucking yes that’s the logical conclusion.
With other random symbols like spikes, who the fuck knows what they’re trying to say. Guess they were spike worshippers. How long have we been trying to figure out what the Easter island heads mean? Weird symbols don’t work. Something innately tired to death, like bones, works as a symbol and a message.

That’s just bones of a different nature. Any society capable of large excavation will quickly figure it out.
Technically yes, but in the context of symbols (which is what this is about) it doesn’t work.
If you stumbled upon a sign with a bug exoskeleton, you’d think “ah yes, this means death”?
