MONKEY MEMO
Some of the most intriguing mysteries cannot be seen. That goes for “the Money-pit”, situated on Oak-island (Nova Scotia, Canada). Essentially a hole inthe ground, that has been excavated more than hundred feet deep. From the first discovery, people have been searching for the treasure, that must have been hidden deep down.
Why this idea, that even made Franklin D. Roosevelt invest in its exploration.
“The pit” is constructed in layers of wood, ten feet deep and downwards. In the space between the layers a type of stone was found, not indeginous to the area; one of which, had strange inscriptions on it. A blanket, made of coconut-fibre is a big mystery too. But the bottom of the “Money-pit” was never reached, because at a certain depth, seawater poured in and flooded the hole.
About what is hidden, opinions vary. Pirate treasure, colonial profits from the French, robbed from the Spanish and, the most extreme: the Arc of the Covenant, brought there by the famous “Knights Templar”. Hidden so well, because of the Arc's dangerous radition.
Somebody has gone to great length and effort to construct it, the rise of the sealevel hiding its treasure for now.
Folklore contains a warning. The mystery will be resolved, when 7 lives will be lost. So far, 6 people died trying.
