The full statue, viewed from the back, appears from a distance in the fifth-season episode " LaFleur". It has been compared to the Colossus of Rhodes. Sayid remarks that he does not know which is more disquieting: the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that the foot has only four toes. All that is left is a large, four-toed marble foot broken off at the ankle. In " Live Together, Die Alone", while at sea, Sayid, Jin, and Sun sight the remnants of a massive statue standing upon a rock in the surf. There are ruins on the Island, many with hieroglyphs. Jack is able to see an image of his childhood home reflected in the mirrors when they are turned to his number, 23 whether this is due to some property of the lighthouse mirrors and structure or simply to Jacob's influence is unclear. At the top of the lighthouse's stone tower is a set of mirrors which can rotate via a large stone dial, labeled with numbers and in some cases the names of the "candidates". In " Lighthouse", Jacob instructs Hurley to take Jack to a heretofore-unseen lighthouse on the Island's coast. The cabin has appeared in three separate locations. While at first it is believed that Jacob resides there, it is actually the Man in Black in the cabin, falsely giving orders on behalf of Jacob. The cabin was built by the Dharma Initiative mathematician Horace Goodspeed as a sort of retreat for himself and his wife.

The Swan's blast door map has a revision marking "Known Final Resting Place of Magnus Hanso / Black Rock" as seen in " Live Together, Die Alone". Leslie Arzt ( Daniel Roebuck) mentions that a tsunami could have swept it a couple of miles inland as seen later in the episode. The ship contains dynamite, mining equipment and several chained skeletons, which are revealed to be enslaved cargo carried by the ship. In " Exodus", John Locke mentions that this ship must have been en route to a mining colony, probably set-off from the Eastern Coast of Africa, Mozambique. This journal is later bought at auction by Charles Widmore. The contents of this journal have never been made public nor known to anyone outside the family of the seller Tovard Hanso. The only known artifact of this journey is the journal of the ship's First Mate, which was discovered seven years later among the artifacts of pirates on Île Sainte-Marie, Madagascar. In " The Constant", it is explained that the Black Rock set sail from Portsmouth, England, on Maon a trading mission to the Kingdom of Siam, when she was tragically lost at sea. Eventually, it is swept inland by a colossal rogue wave, destroying all but one foot of the coastal statue of Taweret on its way, but a mystery remains as to how the Black Rock had landed on almost the other side of the Island from where the statue of Taweret was. Jacob, the protector of the island, does not deny when asked by his fraternal twin brother if he brought the ship to the island, as the two watch it approaching. In " Ab Aeterno", the Black Rock set sail in 1867 and was captained by Magnus Hanso and had Richard Alpert, a Spaniard by the name of Ricardo, as a prisoner. Located deep inside the jungle is the Black Rock, a sailing ship from the mid-19th century. Electromagnetic phenomena are common on the island, and it seems to bestow unusual healing properties to its residents. The island is surrounded by some sort of barrier which causes disruptions in the normal flow of time for those who cross it. Its location changes at times and it cannot be reached by ordinary means. As the main setting of the series, the island boasts a number of unusual properties.
