Legend of the Stone Maps

[Weaversneedle]

Weaversneedle,

Quite the rumors swirling around what happened to Crawford's........stuff. Did it all get to where it was supposed to go?

Take care,

Joe Ribaudo

As far as I know nothing of Chuck's went where he wanted it to go

Since both of you believe you know where the stone maps trail is or lead to, can either of you point to where the treasure is?

nobodie,

If Travis created the Stone Maps, why would they necessarily lead to a treasure? Perhaps it's a puzzle without any reward.

Take care,

Joe

Travis was looking for treasure rooms and the stones are suppose to be copied from other maps. If the trail maps lead to nothing then why make copies? And if they are useless then anyone can make them match any place.

IMO , their hearts have not treasures but only heart shapes which are plenty in the Superstitions . Also the stone trail don't has any reference to a treasure but is only the way to the heart which don't has a heart shape at all . After you will find the end of the trail , you have to use the Stone Latin heart map to confirm how you are in the right spot and to find the treasure . The treasure is almost in the same place with the Omega/cave symbol from the stone trail heart .

Exactly, hundreds of people have used the stone maps to locate treasure and everyone has a different idea on where they lead. Which could only lead to one conclusion, they are fake and lead nowhere

Actually the priest stone point's to 2 treasures, the circle with the heart and the circle with the rectangle with cross on it. The cross site indicates church treasure such as gold crosses, cups, candle holders, anything that directly belongs to the church. The heart site would pertain to gold bars, nuggets, coins not for use in church services. The heart treasure is easier to find, because the priest would rather you find the heart and then go away happy wtih your find. Leaving the the curch treasure still hidden.

"Twenty years or more ago, a young Jesuit priest told GRF that he had heard Father Superior say that in Arizona was to be found Father Kino's grand house, and on the mountain in a 9-league area was the treasure. It is mostly silver bars and copper, and all of the sacred alter stuff from all the Jesuit churches in Mexico."

Sounds reasonable.

So, in other words, within 27 miles of Casa Grande.

Wish he'd narrowed it down a little.....

I didn't read it that way.

"On the mountain" - not exactly sure which mountain.
"in a nine league area" -or, spread out over or along?.

Obviously, 27 miles doesn't quite get us to the Superstitions from Casa Grande.
What I find believable is the list of things hidden.
Especially the copper bars.

An illustrators copy based on the research of John Blevins and Gila River Frank.
Blevins was going to publish a work on Theocracy and the Superstitions but I have never seen a copy.
Gila River Frank is a mystery.

Apparently, Blevins considered Gila River Frank dangerous but also well informed or connected to the church (Jesuits).

Any idea when that drawing was made Hal ?

Mayish, 1980.

 

[somehiker]

Mayish, 1980.

So, well after the stones and what was on them were well known.
Mitchell's "Superstition Treasures" had been published 15 years prior to 1980, for example.
Although the drawing is interesting, I wouldn't waste too much time trying to analyze it then.
