Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

OK ,this one should be hot.
many of you remember "Dem bones"
skull and cross bones,
john swifts silver mine,
a 1421 Chinese coin,
a 1790 German coin ,
a 1804 stash of 500,000 silver coins .
viking looking artifacts.
solstice caves and so on.

I have speculated the skull and cross bones i have seen where the work of the free masons and they where dated to the mid 1700's. but the proof was not really there for such a skeptical world.
the boards and boxes are all the same, some call them Indian bent wood coffins, some call them shipping crates. but all agree they exist.
finally after years of searching i was pointed to a cave with more then a skull and a few bones.
it is big , it has broken boxes , wood dowels, cloth, leather and body parts all over, i came to the conclusion it is a Spanish lighthouse/smelter that was attacked.
but after looking out the entrance i see the mark of the freemasons.
if you look of in the distance you see open ocean on the west coast of America, if the ship looks up the channel , they would see the sign of the freemasons, they would know it was a safe run straight to the light, as long as the light was seen they where safe, Vere off and they end up on the rocks. they would head to it and end up at the old lost Spanish town of ?? . my guess would be , nova albion.

plehbah , the teeth could solve the delema, i could post more photos of teeth, but i dont want to brush grandmas hair.
the container holds treasure.
shootincoin, i would say the boxes where staged, but done a long time ago. most of the boxes are empty and dont look as if they held bodies, bones maybe.

A modern Pike Hook

An antique Pike Hook

They are just like yours. And they are used for logging.

Now it looks like the wooden debris in the cave is the remains of a cheap wooden coffin similar to those usually made for naval burials. Sailors would plane coffin boards from the available material onboard and fasten them together. The rope was used to carry the coffin. This was common during the 1700's, 1800's, and early 1900's.

It is also interesting to note that the lower jaw looks to have fairly well cared for teeth and missing wisdom teeth. I'm guessing late 1800's, early 1900's when dental care was coming into it's own.

But there is absolutely nothing about the images you've shown which point to either freemasons, pirates, or treasure of any kind.

Much like the average shotput, you are seeing what you want to see.

I am suprised no one has slamed this post, all these burial caves are suposed to be indian burial caves with bent wood burial boxes, this guy says they more similar to navel burials then to indian burials. he is saying the same thing i am saying..

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

The skull is not an American native in my opinion. The leather and ropes in context with the mandable seem to rule that out,The skull shown does not seem to have the cave patina look and skulls green up fast with algea due to their porous nature. I think the skull has been disturbed but the mandable is in correct position to have the other side under it and mabe still connected.Everthing in there seems out of context from people rummaging around. So often any exposed bone is gobbled up by rodents for the minerals
I would say not a ancient burial but probably a local or settler from 50 to 100 years. The leather (shoe?) and type rope should be the great indicator
I say metal detect and let it rest Hmmm.

You weren't saying that at all. In fact, in your very first post you said this was some sort of lighthouse that came under attack. Now all of a sudden it's a burial cave?

If it is a burial site, you shouldn't be rummaging through it in the first place. Why not make yourself useful and report the human remains to Vancouver Island University or something. And do yourself a favor by not bringing a shotput along and explaining how it could explode at any moment.

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

Any cave that has bones is clasified as a burial cave. yes i do believe it is a light house, that was attacked. but there are many many other caves with boxes , boards and bones, i believe these where carried to these caves, set up as markers. i believe they are not native but from seafaring peoples, as you suggested. one skull was taken by the police and dated to the mid 1700's.
i am not rummiging around, just documenting videoing and taking pictures, i am trying to findout who these people are, they are relitives of someone and someone should have closer, even if its 200 years later.

So you are saying that you could do a better job at identifying skeletal remains than, say, trained anthropologists and archaeologists? That's interesting. What sort of background do you have which makes you qualified to determine who their relatives are?

What's the plan? Are you going to walk around town holding a skull, looking for a match?

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

as for the people in the cave, they might be treasure hunters that waited to long to detect

 

[hmmm]

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

the lighthouse is good evidence they are not native Indian. most of the caves have just 1 or 2 skulls, some have a empty box, some just have a few bones. not much to go on. one day we where looking around a tinny little island, there was a rock wall with a little over hang, nothing was exposed, we detected along the wall and got a hit, we we found a small 10 inch wide log, the hit was under the log we dug around the log and found a badge, it has king George written on it, we looked more and found another hit, it was a cross, then we found another hit, turned out to be a old jacket button, then we saw teeth, we carefully dug around the skull and exposed it, it had a bullet hole in it. I believe this was the leader of the men who have there heads in the caves. we looked at the island that is adjacent , we found a small grotto with a child in it, and a large cedar was chopped down over the entrance, it was chopped with a ax, we believe he was the child of the man on the island.
i believe its important to mention this because i believe it is directly connected to the lighthouse.

i hear ya, but bullets wizzing past my boats, i would rather waite for the permits.

I knew a detectorist once who claimed that he received death threats, was shot at, had windows broken, was followed--to try and throw him off the trail of a KGC treasure.


In other words, imagined threats seem to be an essential ingredient to imagined success.


If you took the badge and the cross from a body (as you mentioned in the post at the bottom of page 1), then you Aren't waiting for permits now, are you?! You are desecrating graves!

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

hmmm, may I ask if you make sandwiches for a living?

I am just curious.

The cross certainly looks very old.

no doubt a digger

Re: Freemason lighthouse from the 1700's

Wow looks like you found captin Hook!!That would be so fun I bet your having a blast !!!!!Wish I could join ya !!!Be safe, Peace!

I may very well have found captain's hook, but i think he, john silver swiftly escaped and was last seen on eastern shores of america, telling tales of his adventures. poor young peter was hit with a pann and left with a skull and cross bones to guard the treasure.
is it a blast, yes.

Hmmm
I do not know the law where you are but it against the law to dig burials here in the USA.(unless you are a archeologist and then you have a degree to rape and pillage)
Not sure how you can come to the conclusions of who was related to who with out true science? But like someone said their are plenty of people that will be happy to help you along. I do not understand why your post can never have closure. It now looks to be grave robbing at this point with your excavations Digging King Geroge buttons and carefully digging around bullet riddled skulls?
Wow !

People like hmmm are the reason many are against metal detectorist. They lack any common sense and do things that eventually tarnish the whole hobby.
