The Oak Island Money Pit was constructed by the “Powers That Be” who were and still to this day, The Secret Force that controls the course of mankind on earth.

Well I must say they suck at it. Chaos seems to have the upper hand in the last 200 years. Or Kaos.

Dan Blankenship did not say he doesn't believe in the oak island treasure. He did say that so far the only thing they have proved is there have been lots of people on the island from 100's of years ago... that happened to drop stuff.. He is still willing to go along with more searching if they have enough money to continue...

They have already been paid for Season 6, so if they want their $1.3 Million Dollars, they will have another 15 episodes of "The Curse of Oak Island" At least you would think unless they do not honor their contract.

Yes, he is willing to keep accepting a paycheck in exchange for continuing to perpetuate the hoax...

The fictional reality show is a money maker for the laginas and their buddies. They know that’s the real treasure and they will keep perpetuating the hoax for as long as the money holds out...

Even "Today" if parts of certain Ship's Anchors, Canons, or even Bells, buried in the Cavern below the water tunnels were reveal, they would be the proof and evidence as to who were the Original Depositors.

Bolding changed, for emphasis.

What If?...The "Brooch" Found On Oak Island...Is Really "French"!

The Brooch found on Oak Island of a lady wearing a "Bonnet" in the hand painted picture and was stated to be a Victorian Bonnet from the early 19th Century, may not be of English Origin!

Victoria Brooch.jpg


Like Today's fashion designs, many Fashions originated from France.

The Bonnet shown could be of French designed, from the late 18th Century.

Bonnet Empire Era.jpg

Brooches were very popular during that era and many were painted from the French city of Limoges, France.

It would be Strange if this Brooch was from the Lost Jewels of Marie Antoinette!


Victoria Brooch.jpg

Would it not be Bizarre if this Brooch was the last hand painted Picture of Her!

One must constantly...Think Outside the Box...Especially when that Box...Is the Oak Island Money Pit Shaft!

The Money Pit Shaft served the Freemasons with many "Objectives"....
We're talkin' 'bout SHAFT, can you dig it?
Right on

Patience is a Virtue…Especially… When searching for Treasure!

Thank you for that statement.

My question: what has been found to indicate a buried treasure on Oak Island?

My answer: Knowledge!

Knowledge...whether from found trinkets, additional history, or just the disproving of prior theories… all indicate some sort of Treasure may be on Oak Island.

This final discovery will require more “Time”.

It took “Several Thousand Years” before the Treasure of King Tutankhamun was revealed by Howard Carter in 1922.

Treasure of King Tutankhamun 2.jpg

It took “Several Thousand Years” before the Treasure of Troy was revealed by Heinrich Schliemann in 1871.

Treasure of Troy.jpg

I believe it will take more than a “Couple Hundred Years” before the Treasure of Oak Island is revealed.

It will also take more…Patience, Faith, Hope, and Charity (from the Canadian Government) to enable this Treasure to be found.

Then again…This discovery may be just around the corner…Or…This... November 2018... Season 6…The Curse of Oak Island…titled…”Treasure Found”!

The fluff filled, make believe rhetoric continues even after factual proof shows nothing of any significance ever existed on hoax island.....

Knowledge is the "key" word.
Tutankhamun was KNOWN to have existed, it was where he was entombed that wasn't known.
Troy was KNOWN to have existed, there were 9 Troy cities built upon the top of previous Troys.
It was which was Homer's Troy that was not known.
As for Oak Island...?
One needs more that a strawman hayride to the red herring fishfry to make these real person and historical location discoveries to compare with a what seems to be fabricated lore and legend of treasure.

Wake me in 800 years when the treasure is ripe.


The key to finding treasure seems to be looking in the right place; not waiting for the right time. The reason Tutankhamun's tomb was special is because it was one of few that hadn't been looted - thousands of years ago. Obviously Oak Island isn't the right place to look.

And also - King Tut was well documented for when and where he lived.

Troy was well documented for where and when it existed.

No one even has a solid line of what they may be looking for on Oak Island.

...

...which has led to a cottage industry of TV shows and books based on pure speculation, like Petter Amundsen's hidden codes in Shakespeare's works that reveal the Oak Island location.

OK - but how do you get your team the 550 light years distance to star Gamma Cassiopeiae to start digging?

Star... Gamma Cassiopeia... Shines down to a marker placed at the NorthWest end of the Island, and will continue to do so for...Eternity!

At what time of day? What season of the year? It will be all over the night sky depending on the day of the year and between sunrise and sunset. Or, sunset to sunrise - provided you have a clear sky at night in Nova Scotia. Here in NY that's about a 30% chance.

Worthless as "navigation" unless you have a specific time and date. The Earth rotates (you may be unaware or in denial, but it is true). It also wobbles and had a tipped axis so we get things like day and night, and because we orbit the Sun: seasons. A fixed point in the stars is nice, but we're [Earth] all over the place.

Assuming the Templars had 1800's accuracy in whenever with a manual sextant they could get within 0.2 arc minutes - or a square 400 yards by 400 yards. That's about the size of . . . Oak Island. That was the norm up through WWII with handheld sextants, by the way. Still a challenge with a best grade modern handheld sextant.

And further, why would it have anything to do with anything? Or, specifically, anything to do with Oak Island?
