Ben's Stone Door

DocArtz has posted up a rundown of the heiroglyphics which could be seen on the stone door in Ben's secret room.

What's really interesting, is the parts in the second line. "Master" or "Priest" and "Man with weapon".... Bear with me a bit. This is the first thing that came to mind when I saw that....

Anyone remember our favorite Tailie, Mr. Eko. The (OK so he wasn't really a...) priest? With his "Jesus stick?"

I wonder if it's mere coincidence or not? Might Ben have ordered Ol' Smokey to take out Eko? Did Ben see him as a threat? Or maybe the island/Jacob intervened in order to prevent the inevitable conflict between Eko and Locke? The possibilities are endless, and since Eko (and that entire exploration of duality) is gone, I guess we'll never know!

Since it's now apparent that the smoke monster is (at least in part) under Ben's control, or at least his beck-and-call, you have to go back and look at just about every instance we've seen it....

I'm liking your Ecko theory. However, I'm not so sure that Ben controls Ol' Smokey so much as let's him out of the cage from time to time. I guess you could call that control, but I don't think that Ben can make it do his bidding. More like a Tiger in the cage, who's hungry. You let it out, it's likely going to eat someone. As long as you are out of the way, it won't be you.
