What is said upon finding your target has been marked out. Derived from an X on pirate treasure maps. The phrase was put into common usage by the British army, who performed executions by marking a piece of paper with a black x and positioning it on the heart of someone sentenced to death.


The acting officer would say "X marks the spot" and the firing squad would shoot the x.
X marks the spot, so let's go and dig up treasure.
