What is the secret of Treasure Oak Island?
Oak Island is a private island on the coast of New Scotland, Canada. The small island, which covers 140 hectares (570,000 m²), is known for the legend of a monetary pit, which many consider to be a place where the treasure is hidden. Many stories about money drink made Oak Island one of the most famous private islands in the world.
The first documented mention of the money pit became more than 150 years ago. In 1856, a series of newspapers, including Liverpool, stated the story of a 16 -year -old, who discovered depression on the island of Oak in 1795 and came across deposits and protocols after digging. This led a teenager to believe that there was a primitive construction in the hole, perhaps as a shelter for something. The boy returned with his friends and kicked until they reached 30 feet (10 m), but found nothing.
Almost ten years later, the company invited by ONSLOW on the Oak Island arrived with the only purpose to explore the cash pit. During the excavation they found several layers of protocols, stones, coal and coconut fiber; To 90Stop (27 m) down they found a large flag stone with an inscription that reads: "Twenty feet below, £ 2 million lies buried." When they continued digging, the pit flooded. More than a dozen companies tried to find a cash pit without success. Even former US President Franklin Roosevelt was part of the excavation group in 1909. Steel-Magnate Gilbert Hedden bought the island in 1929 in the hope of finding the treasure but also failed.
The most popular theory is that the money pit contains a treasure buried either by Captain Kidd or Edward Teach (Blackbeard), but others suggested that it may be the remains of a shipwreck galleon or incas. Some believe that the treasure may not even be gold. Several scientists Sugostrov Island Oak can be a shelter for the Holy Grail, or even for a number of documents that show that philosopher Francis Bacon is a real author of Shakespeare's games. While the theory abounds, the truth is that no one has yet been able to find the famous money on the island of Oak. The area isNow owned by a group of American entrepreneurs who have promised to go even more to find a buried treasure. Anyone can visit the island if they ask for permission in advance. Treasure hunters on the island can still be visible regularly.
