In my prediction contest entry, I said that the object
on the cover of the US version belongs to the CoS
because when Harry enters the room in Book 2, he
notices a strange kind of green fumes filling it.
Now, Ron says that the Chamber is probably well below
the lake. The lake is there, so far, for almost no
specific purpose, except to try the candidates in the
Triwizard Tournament. I am sure there will be a more
important role to it.
All in all, we can connect the two and say that
perhaps what we see on the cover is an underground
bay, which perhaps has the entrance through the
Chamber of Secrets. Or perhaps Dumbledore remodelled
the chamber as this cave. Or perhaps Gryffindor left a
secret chamber as well.
Come to think of it, it is more than obvious: the
cover describes an underground bay which is... The
Godric Hollow! Hollow, because it is cave-like.
Godric, because Gryffindor inherited or built it. We
know Hagrid reached Harry to tell him about Hogwarts
by flying over a lake. Could it be that he reached
Harry first and saved him from the ruins of the house
in exactly the same setting? Perhaps not just, but it
is an idea.
One more guess: Lily's green eyes have something to do
with the water. Harry inherited this something-to-do.
I venture that the lake surrounding Hogwarts is what
keeps Harry safe at the school, besides Dumbledore.
Any other ideas along these lines?

PS: Did Godric have a scar as well? If yes, how did he
gain it?
