1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:03,520
Tonight on the curse of oak island...
2
00:00:03,630 --> 00:00:06,130
We're in the oldest prison in Malta.
3
00:00:06,250 --> 00:00:08,250
This is a place very rich in symbolism.
4
00:00:08,420 --> 00:00:10,550
The four-dot cross is
thought to represent
5
00:00:10,750 --> 00:00:11,880
the presence of holy relics.
6
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,250
There was indeed a family bloodline
7
00:00:14,420 --> 00:00:17,000
that we can connect to oak island.
8
00:00:17,170 --> 00:00:18,250
It's quite remarkable.
9
00:00:18,460 --> 00:00:20,056
This is one of the boulders
10
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:21,660
- that's on the map.
- Come on, baby.
11
00:00:21,830 --> 00:00:23,000
Let's find a treasure.
12
00:00:23,210 --> 00:00:24,490
- What the heck is that?
- Yeah!
13
00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,170
Boy, that is really pretty.
14
00:00:26,380 --> 00:00:28,630
- Very ornate.
- I wasn't expecting that.
15
00:00:31,250 --> 00:00:34,420
There is an island in the north Atlantic
16
00:00:34,540 --> 00:00:37,000
where people have been looking for
17
00:00:37,210 --> 00:00:41,000
an incredible treasure
for more than 200 years.
18
00:00:41,210 --> 00:00:44,000
So far, they have found a stone slab
19
00:00:44,210 --> 00:00:47,040
with strange symbols carved into it,
20
00:00:47,210 --> 00:00:50,880
man-made workings that
date to medieval times,
21
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,000
and a lead cross whose
origin may be connected
22
00:00:55,130 --> 00:00:56,130
to the knights templar.
23
00:00:56,290 --> 00:01:01,920
To date, six men have died
trying to solve the mystery.
24
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:07,130
And according to legend,
one more will have to die
25
00:01:07,330 --> 00:01:10,660
before the treasure can be found.
26
00:01:20,710 --> 00:01:24,540
A cool fall morning has
begun on oak island.
27
00:01:25,540 --> 00:01:27,960
But in the fabled money pit area,
28
00:01:28,130 --> 00:01:30,210
ground repairs are running at full steam
29
00:01:30,330 --> 00:01:34,160
in preparation for brothers
Rick and Marty lagina
30
00:01:34,330 --> 00:01:36,830
to conduct the deepest
dig ever attempted
31
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,960
in search of a vast treasure.
32
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,290
How we doing?
33
00:01:40,460 --> 00:01:42,090
You know those crane mats over there?
34
00:01:42,250 --> 00:01:43,830
We're gonna run 'em from here to here
35
00:01:43,960 --> 00:01:46,056
to disperse the load and set
the oscillator on the crane mats.
36
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,410
- On top of these?
- Yeah.
37
00:01:48,580 --> 00:01:50,580
All right. Let's make it so.
38
00:01:51,540 --> 00:01:53,120
Over the past two months,
39
00:01:53,330 --> 00:01:55,960
the laginas and their
team have excavated
40
00:01:56,130 --> 00:01:58,550
multiple seven-foot-diameter steel shafts
41
00:01:58,710 --> 00:02:01,290
in locations where they
have not only detected
42
00:02:01,460 --> 00:02:05,380
high trace evidence of precious
metals deep underground
43
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:09,040
but also the legendary chappell vault,
44
00:02:09,210 --> 00:02:11,710
a massive concrete-encased box
45
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,010
that was first reported by
treasure hunters back in 1897
46
00:02:16,130 --> 00:02:19,670
at a depth of 153 feet.
47
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:25,380
Hey. Stop. It's caving.
48
00:02:25,580 --> 00:02:28,830
However, during one of their recent digs,
49
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,920
just as they hoped to
retrieve the buried vault,
50
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,330
the earth surrounding and
below the shaft suddenly caved in.
51
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,040
This has caused the team to speculate
52
00:02:40,250 --> 00:02:43,000
that the tons of soil
and the believed treasure
53
00:02:43,210 --> 00:02:46,090
fell into a massive natural
cavity in the bedrock
54
00:02:46,250 --> 00:02:51,410
more than 200 feet deep
known as the solution channel.
55
00:02:53,210 --> 00:02:56,420
Now more than 50 tons
of gravel are being used
56
00:02:56,540 --> 00:02:59,500
to make the money pit
area safe for the team
57
00:02:59,710 --> 00:03:03,170
so they can sink another
seven-foot-diameter shaft
58
00:03:03,330 --> 00:03:05,330
all the way down into
the solution channel
59
00:03:05,540 --> 00:03:08,750
and hopefully recover the storied riches.
60
00:03:11,210 --> 00:03:12,670
While the repairs continue
61
00:03:12,790 --> 00:03:15,670
in the money pit area on oak island
62
00:03:17,290 --> 00:03:21,330
more than 4,000 miles to
the east in gozo, Malta...
63
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:23,040
It's a grand entrance here,
64
00:03:23,210 --> 00:03:25,000
- with the bells ringing.
- Yes.
65
00:03:25,170 --> 00:03:27,090
You know what?
Maybe it's a good omen.
66
00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:30,080
Rick lagina and other
members of the team
67
00:03:30,250 --> 00:03:32,330
are investigating an incredible theory
68
00:03:32,540 --> 00:03:34,580
about the oak island mystery
69
00:03:34,790 --> 00:03:37,170
that members of the
medieval Christian order
70
00:03:37,330 --> 00:03:39,120
known as the knights templar
71
00:03:39,250 --> 00:03:42,460
and a related group known
as the knights of Malta
72
00:03:42,670 --> 00:03:46,170
made numerous visits between
the 12th and 17th centuries
73
00:03:46,380 --> 00:03:49,550
in order to hide priceless
religious treasures
74
00:03:49,710 --> 00:03:52,250
all across the island.
75
00:03:52,460 --> 00:03:56,170
We're in, within the walls
of the old citadel in gozo.
76
00:03:56,380 --> 00:04:01,290
So, after they built Valletta in 1571,
77
00:04:01,460 --> 00:04:03,290
the knights of Malta started improving
78
00:04:03,460 --> 00:04:05,000
the fortification of Malta,
79
00:04:05,210 --> 00:04:07,500
the other cities around Valletta,
80
00:04:07,670 --> 00:04:09,340
and eventually around here in gozo.
81
00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:15,420
Over the past decade,
Rick, Marty, and their team
82
00:04:15,580 --> 00:04:17,660
have made a number
of shocking discoveries
83
00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:20,870
that may be related to the templar order
84
00:04:22,130 --> 00:04:24,840
such as a 14th century lead cross
85
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,710
and numerous stone
structures that could date back
86
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,260
to as early as 1200 ad.
87
00:04:33,250 --> 00:04:35,080
It's just absolutely incredible.
88
00:04:35,250 --> 00:04:36,880
And, incredibly,
89
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,870
just after their arrival in
Valletta, Malta one week ago...
90
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,830
Is this Clay?
91
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,870
It's grayish, bluish.
92
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,750
The legend tells of flood
tunnels on the island.
93
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,840
Rick and the team saw
underground tunnels
94
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,500
that were built by the knights
of Malta in the 16th century
95
00:04:55,630 --> 00:04:58,210
with a similar design to the description
96
00:04:58,380 --> 00:05:00,840
of the original money pit.
97
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,540
I did come across a similar pattern here.
98
00:05:04,710 --> 00:05:06,630
They also confirmed
99
00:05:06,790 --> 00:05:09,870
that a mysterious button
featuring a star burst pattern
100
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,130
and which was found
one year ago on oak island
101
00:05:13,250 --> 00:05:16,330
may also be connected
to the Maltese order.
102
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:19,040
I think it is highly suggestive
103
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:21,000
that the knights of Malta
104
00:05:21,210 --> 00:05:23,670
or an evolution of the knights of Malta
105
00:05:23,830 --> 00:05:26,660
may have had something to
do with the oak island mystery.
106
00:05:26,830 --> 00:05:30,330
There's a lot of excitement about it
107
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:33,250
and an imperative to follow those leads.
108
00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:36,710
So the reason why we're
here today is to take a look
109
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,090
at the old prison that is up there.
110
00:05:39,210 --> 00:05:41,590
And the people here bided
their time by scratching
111
00:05:41,790 --> 00:05:44,790
the-their beliefs and their
symbols into the walls.
112
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,000
We'll also find some symbols
113
00:05:47,130 --> 00:05:50,010
that remind us very, very
much of the stuff we've seen
114
00:05:50,210 --> 00:05:51,880
on oak island.
115
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,380
After fending off an invasion
116
00:05:54,540 --> 00:05:57,830
by the ottoman empire in 1551,
117
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,920
the citadel of Victoria,
also known as cittadella,
118
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,160
was reconstructed in 1599
119
00:06:05,380 --> 00:06:07,670
with the help of the knights of Malta
120
00:06:07,830 --> 00:06:11,080
to serve as a fortification and prison.
121
00:06:11,250 --> 00:06:13,500
Okay, why don't we go to the old prison?
122
00:06:13,710 --> 00:06:15,590
- Okay. - Perfect.
- That's great.
123
00:06:15,710 --> 00:06:18,920
However, some researchers believe
124
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,330
that it may have also
been used by the knights
125
00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:23,830
to hide templar-related treasures
126
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,500
before they were
transferred to oak island
127
00:06:26,710 --> 00:06:29,000
in the 17th century.
128
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,750
We're in the-the oldest prison in Malta.
129
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,210
And, this is a place
very rich in, symbolism,
130
00:06:38,420 --> 00:06:40,090
carvings, graffiti.
131
00:06:40,210 --> 00:06:43,420
But I-I would like, before we
get in, to show you something.
132
00:06:43,580 --> 00:06:46,160
It's actually, behind you.
133
00:06:47,210 --> 00:06:49,790
There's something there
that you might recognize.
134
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:50,920
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
135
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,170
- That four-dot cross.
- And...
136
00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:54,710
- Four-dot cross.
- Yeah.
137
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,800
The four-dot cross is thought
138
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000
to represent the presence of holy relics
139
00:06:59,170 --> 00:07:00,170
at some point in time.
140
00:07:00,290 --> 00:07:01,500
- Yeah.
- And that's carved
141
00:07:01,670 --> 00:07:04,380
on the h+o stone back on oak island.
142
00:07:04,540 --> 00:07:09,340
Discovered on the northern
shore of oak island in 1921,
143
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:11,670
the so-called h+o stone
144
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,260
was a fragment of a much larger Boulder
145
00:07:14,420 --> 00:07:16,210
that was blown apart by searchers
146
00:07:16,420 --> 00:07:18,000
who mistakenly believed
147
00:07:18,210 --> 00:07:21,880
that it marked the
location of buried treasure.
148
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,380
The h+o symbol featured a cross
149
00:07:25,540 --> 00:07:28,540
surrounded by four dots carved into it.
150
00:07:29,460 --> 00:07:31,460
And in recent years,
151
00:07:31,630 --> 00:07:33,190
the team has not only found this symbol
152
00:07:33,380 --> 00:07:37,210
at numerous templar-related
sites throughout Europe,
153
00:07:37,380 --> 00:07:44,960
including Portugal, Italy, Denmark,
154
00:07:45,130 --> 00:07:47,396
and the Netherlands,
155
00:07:47,420 --> 00:07:50,340
but have also learned
that it may represent
156
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:54,130
the presence of religious artifacts.
157
00:07:54,250 --> 00:07:56,460
Maybe this, before being a prison,
158
00:07:56,630 --> 00:07:58,920
was a place to hide or,
159
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,500
you know, keep something
that was special to the order.
160
00:08:01,670 --> 00:08:04,710
The four-dot cross, it is on oak island.
161
00:08:04,830 --> 00:08:06,330
There's no getting around that.
162
00:08:06,540 --> 00:08:08,330
We have to follow up on this.
163
00:08:08,460 --> 00:08:10,460
It's incredibly important.
164
00:08:10,630 --> 00:08:12,340
- Right. - Yeah.
- So, guys,
165
00:08:12,540 --> 00:08:16,120
why don't we go into
the... The actual prison?
166
00:08:16,290 --> 00:08:19,040
And then maybe we can split
and take a look at the carvings.
167
00:08:19,210 --> 00:08:21,250
Sure. Okay. Sounds good. Let's do it.
168
00:08:21,420 --> 00:08:24,000
As Rick and the team search for clues
169
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:27,130
at the cittadella in gozo, Malta...
170
00:08:28,540 --> 00:08:30,370
Okay. I have been informed
171
00:08:30,540 --> 00:08:32,370
that you guys have
found something you find
172
00:08:32,540 --> 00:08:34,790
pretty exciting, pretty interesting.
173
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,460
Back on oak island, Marty lagina
174
00:08:37,670 --> 00:08:40,590
is meeting with archaeologist laird niven,
175
00:08:40,710 --> 00:08:43,170
archaeometallurgist Emma culligan,
176
00:08:43,330 --> 00:08:44,660
and other members of the team
177
00:08:44,830 --> 00:08:47,540
- in the lab.
- So, is this it here?
178
00:08:47,710 --> 00:08:49,170
- Yeah.
- He is eager
179
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:51,420
to hear laird and Emma's analysis
180
00:08:51,580 --> 00:08:54,410
of an ornate button found one week ago
181
00:08:54,580 --> 00:08:57,830
in the mysterious round feature on lot 5,
182
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,420
a feature that laird believes may
have been used as a campsite
183
00:09:02,540 --> 00:09:05,500
by multiple groups
prior to the 18th century
184
00:09:05,710 --> 00:09:08,000
and also where they have found
185
00:09:08,130 --> 00:09:11,210
a potentially templar-related barter token
186
00:09:11,380 --> 00:09:14,670
as well as the star burst button.
187
00:09:14,830 --> 00:09:17,410
That is really pretty cool.
188
00:09:17,580 --> 00:09:18,976
I can see why you're excited about this.
189
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,500
I was most interested in the eye.
190
00:09:21,630 --> 00:09:25,010
The eye was a very robust,
almost rectangular eye.
191
00:09:25,210 --> 00:09:29,840
And, to me, that's
earlier than mid-1700s.
192
00:09:31,170 --> 00:09:32,420
That's what really struck me.
193
00:09:32,540 --> 00:09:34,500
Until we did the ct scan.
194
00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:36,170
Okay. Let's see it.
195
00:09:36,290 --> 00:09:38,750
And it revealed...
196
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,840
- Boy, that is really pretty.
- Whoa.
197
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,500
- Yeah.
- I wasn't expecting that. - No.
198
00:09:43,710 --> 00:09:44,686
Very ornate.
199
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:48,960
The back is mostly, um, leaded brass,
200
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,540
but the body itself is zinc and copper,
201
00:09:52,710 --> 00:09:56,210
which is a less technical
manufacturing process.
202
00:09:56,380 --> 00:09:59,340
So it could indicate an older technique.
203
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:03,420
So, compositionally,
somewhat sitting between, um,
204
00:10:03,580 --> 00:10:05,830
mid-1600s to 1700s.
205
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,830
And I think we just need to do more work
206
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,670
in order to narrow that date range.
207
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,340
Well, you can't help but
compare it to the star burst button.
208
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:13,830
- Exactly.
- Yeah.
209
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,580
Can you pull that up so
we can look at the two...
210
00:10:16,710 --> 00:10:18,000
Juxtaposed?
211
00:10:18,210 --> 00:10:19,186
Yeah.
212
00:10:19,210 --> 00:10:20,380
Wow.
213
00:10:20,540 --> 00:10:22,120
They really are similar.
214
00:10:22,290 --> 00:10:25,460
The way that the star burst
kind of turns with its lines,
215
00:10:25,630 --> 00:10:28,050
it's very similar to the other button.
216
00:10:28,210 --> 00:10:31,750
Another potential 17th century button
217
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,840
found in the feature on lot 5
218
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,630
and similar to the
so-called star burst button,
219
00:10:37,830 --> 00:10:41,016
which may have originated in Malta?
220
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,920
Is it possible that the team
has unearthed a second clue
221
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,460
that could link the knights of
Malta to the oak island mystery?
222
00:10:48,580 --> 00:10:49,580
Something happened here.
223
00:10:49,710 --> 00:10:52,460
- Yeah.
- Something... Significant.
224
00:10:52,580 --> 00:10:54,620
Something unknown to history.
225
00:10:55,540 --> 00:10:56,670
Well, look, you know what,
226
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,010
anything in the 1600s on this island
227
00:10:59,210 --> 00:11:00,186
is, pretty exciting.
228
00:11:00,210 --> 00:11:01,290
Yeah.
229
00:11:01,420 --> 00:11:02,920
Okay. You two come with me.
230
00:11:03,130 --> 00:11:04,686
- Let's go find some stuff.
- All right. See you later.
231
00:11:04,710 --> 00:11:06,630
- Yeah. See you. Thank you.
- See you.
232
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,646
Have a look back here,
Rick, see what you think.
233
00:11:14,670 --> 00:11:16,630
On the Maltese island of gozo,
234
00:11:16,830 --> 00:11:20,370
some 4,000 miles east of oak island...
235
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:22,936
Here's the symbol here. I just
wanted to get your take on it.
236
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,880
Rick lagina and other
members of the team
237
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,540
are at a 16th century citadel
238
00:11:28,710 --> 00:11:30,750
looking for more clues that may connect
239
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,880
the knights of Malta
240
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,120
and the knights templar to the
230-year-old treasure mystery.
241
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:41,090
We're here in the citadel
to investigate the possibility
242
00:11:41,290 --> 00:11:42,540
that there's a connection
243
00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:44,470
between oak island
and the knights of Malta.
244
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:47,250
We have a list of symbols
that we want to investigate,
245
00:11:47,380 --> 00:11:50,340
so I most hope to
flesh out that connection
246
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:51,750
from both sides here.
247
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,000
This section of the
wall is pretty interesting.
248
00:11:54,170 --> 00:11:55,516
We've seen this here, this symbol here,
249
00:11:55,540 --> 00:11:57,290
in Italy for sure.
250
00:11:57,460 --> 00:11:59,170
Six petals in a circle.
251
00:11:59,330 --> 00:12:01,370
- This might be very significant.
- Yeah.
252
00:12:01,540 --> 00:12:05,670
So this is yet another very...
Uniquely shaped symbol
253
00:12:05,830 --> 00:12:06,936
that we've seen in-in conjunction
254
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,670
with the knights templar
255
00:12:08,830 --> 00:12:09,806
and now we might be
seeing in conjunction
256
00:12:09,830 --> 00:12:11,250
with the knights of Malta.
257
00:12:11,460 --> 00:12:13,340
And hopefully we can
prove out connections
258
00:12:13,540 --> 00:12:14,540
to oak island.
259
00:12:14,670 --> 00:12:16,840
This almost looks like a code.
260
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,840
Some kind of code.
261
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,920
Something's being
said there, in my opinion.
262
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,460
- There's the circle and dot.
- Yeah.
263
00:12:24,630 --> 00:12:27,652
There's some, -90 foot
stone symbolism there.
264
00:12:27,676 --> 00:12:28,676
Yeah.
265
00:12:29,130 --> 00:12:32,170
A carved symbol in gozo, Malta
266
00:12:32,380 --> 00:12:35,800
matching one found
on the 90 foot stone?
267
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,540
Unearthed in 1804 at a depth of 90 feet
268
00:12:39,710 --> 00:12:41,790
in the original money pit,
269
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,670
the 90 foot stone was
covered with cryptic symbols.
270
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,880
Upon its removal, the
shaft flooded with seawater,
271
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,500
leaving searchers to believe
272
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:53,040
that a great treasure was guarded
273
00:12:53,210 --> 00:12:56,420
by an ingeniously designed flood tunnel.
274
00:12:56,580 --> 00:13:00,500
Would be nice to do a
comprehensive study of all this.
275
00:13:00,670 --> 00:13:03,670
Is it possible that here in gozo
276
00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:08,340
the oak island team has
found not only a familiar symbol
277
00:13:08,540 --> 00:13:10,420
that depicts religious treasures
278
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:14,210
but also another one
related to a booby trap
279
00:13:14,380 --> 00:13:18,260
that may be protecting such
things deep in the money pit?
280
00:13:18,380 --> 00:13:20,710
Every time you find
something that you think
281
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,550
is relatable to our quest to
solve the oak island mystery,
282
00:13:24,750 --> 00:13:26,330
you pay attention.
283
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:29,056
And we see some of these
same symbols represented
284
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,500
in the characters on the 90 foot stone.
285
00:13:31,670 --> 00:13:33,000
Eerily similar.
286
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,710
I don't know about the rest of you,
287
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,856
but today has just solidified
for me my impression
288
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,590
that we've got old-world
European symbolism
289
00:13:40,750 --> 00:13:42,210
- on oak island.
- Absolutely.
290
00:13:42,380 --> 00:13:45,170
We see these same
symbols on the island.
291
00:13:45,380 --> 00:13:47,010
We can't escape that.
292
00:13:47,210 --> 00:13:50,210
There was information
that was deemed necessary
293
00:13:50,380 --> 00:13:53,340
to place on these walls literally in stone.
294
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:56,170
If you're going to feel it's
important enough to write it
295
00:13:56,330 --> 00:13:58,290
in stone, you're gonna
write it on documents,
296
00:13:58,460 --> 00:14:02,500
and those documents
would be housed somewhere.
297
00:14:02,670 --> 00:14:04,340
- Yeah.
- My takeaway is,
298
00:14:04,500 --> 00:14:06,100
- there's a lot more work to do.
- Yeah.
299
00:14:06,250 --> 00:14:09,210
- Let's go find it.
- Absolutely.
300
00:14:09,380 --> 00:14:13,050
As Rick and the team
continue their journey in Malta
301
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,290
back on oak island,
302
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:18,500
as the search for clues
proceeds on lot 5...
303
00:14:19,830 --> 00:14:22,460
This is one of the
boulders that's on the map.
304
00:14:22,630 --> 00:14:24,010
Yeah. That's right.
305
00:14:24,170 --> 00:14:26,000
Marty lagina, Craig tester,
306
00:14:26,210 --> 00:14:28,000
and other members of the team
307
00:14:28,210 --> 00:14:31,170
are hoping to unearth valuables on lot 1,
308
00:14:31,330 --> 00:14:34,410
over half a mile west of the money pit.
309
00:14:35,460 --> 00:14:36,860
If we move this rock, we might find
310
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,040
some more evidence
if it was placed or not.
311
00:14:39,210 --> 00:14:40,210
Okay.
312
00:14:40,290 --> 00:14:42,670
This is the Blair treasure map.
313
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,340
From what we can gather,
314
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:46,960
there were three
separate treasure caches.
315
00:14:47,130 --> 00:14:50,750
Earlier this year, Doug
crowell, judi rudebusch,
316
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,080
and historian Terry
deveau presented the team
317
00:14:55,250 --> 00:14:58,920
with a 19th century map of
the western end of oak island
318
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,960
that was created by the
legendary treasure hunter
319
00:15:02,130 --> 00:15:05,870
Frederick Blair, one of
the men who first reported
320
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,330
the so-called chappell vault in 1897.
321
00:15:10,460 --> 00:15:12,840
There were three original
notations on the map.
322
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:14,670
Three stones that were indicated.
323
00:15:14,790 --> 00:15:19,960
Curiously, the map
depicted three boulders,
324
00:15:20,170 --> 00:15:23,800
which Blair believed may have
been placed centuries earlier
325
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,960
in order to Mark the
approximate locations
326
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,830
of shallow treasure deposits...
327
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,130
That's what we're talking about!
328
00:15:31,250 --> 00:15:33,330
Yeah. No mistaking this one.
329
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:36,040
Boulders which the
team has already verified
330
00:15:36,210 --> 00:15:40,340
were in the correct places
according to the map.
331
00:15:40,540 --> 00:15:41,920
All right.
332
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,760
Without further ado, let's find a treasure.
333
00:15:46,790 --> 00:15:48,870
Now, while they wait for the repairs
334
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,670
to be completed in the money pit area,
335
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,170
Marty and Craig want to
see if they can also verify
336
00:15:55,330 --> 00:15:59,000
that treasure is or once was
buried beneath the boulders.
337
00:16:03,540 --> 00:16:05,540
It might be bigger
than I initially thought.
338
00:16:06,670 --> 00:16:08,000
Ooh, yeah!
339
00:16:08,170 --> 00:16:09,840
Somewhat diamond-shaped?
340
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,580
- Point at the bottom.
- Yeah.
341
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,550
- That Boulder is massive.
- A lot bigger
342
00:16:16,750 --> 00:16:18,270
than it looks when it's in the ground.
343
00:16:18,330 --> 00:16:21,830
It was just barely pushed
into the "c" horizon.
344
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,040
It could have been put here by humans.
345
00:16:25,210 --> 00:16:27,024
Well, why don't you
metal-detect it, Gary?
346
00:16:27,048 --> 00:16:28,048
Yeah.
347
00:16:36,130 --> 00:16:37,420
Ooh, I got a good hit here.
348
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:39,080
Jack, get it out of there.
349
00:16:45,500 --> 00:16:46,500
It's here.
350
00:16:48,380 --> 00:16:50,090
Look at that.
351
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,330
That's hand-forged.
352
00:16:52,540 --> 00:16:54,750
I think it's a fastener.
353
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,266
Well, you don't suppose it just fell out
354
00:16:56,290 --> 00:16:57,516
of that timber you're
standing on, do you?
355
00:16:57,540 --> 00:16:58,920
Yeah.
356
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,750
So that timber is pretty old, then.
357
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,380
And so could this.
358
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,340
A hand-forged iron
fastener and a wooden timber
359
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:11,040
found under a Boulder that was identified
360
00:17:11,210 --> 00:17:13,960
on Frederick Blair's
believed treasure map?
361
00:17:14,130 --> 00:17:16,510
Could that mean
something of great value
362
00:17:16,670 --> 00:17:19,840
could also be buried in this area?
363
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,460
Why don't you grab this timber?
364
00:17:22,580 --> 00:17:23,660
All right.
365
00:17:33,710 --> 00:17:35,130
Wow!
366
00:17:36,130 --> 00:17:39,040
It looks like, again,
somebody or somebodies
367
00:17:39,210 --> 00:17:40,730
were messing around with that Boulder.
368
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,170
We might be uncovering
another structure.
369
00:17:47,540 --> 00:17:49,670
This is a wedge.
370
00:17:49,830 --> 00:17:51,040
Yeah!
371
00:17:51,250 --> 00:17:52,670
Nice find, Craig.
372
00:17:53,630 --> 00:17:55,590
So somebody was definitely
373
00:17:55,710 --> 00:17:58,170
in and around that Boulder
quite a long time ago.
374
00:17:58,380 --> 00:17:59,840
I'm just gonna go a little further.
375
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,170
Sounds good.
376
00:18:09,210 --> 00:18:11,040
What the heck is that?
377
00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:15,340
- That's really weird.
- Yeah.
378
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,160
- That's really weird.
- Yeah.
379
00:18:21,210 --> 00:18:22,840
Look at that.
380
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:23,976
That's a hell of a lot of rocks.
381
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,580
A pile of rocks.
382
00:18:25,750 --> 00:18:28,130
It looks like the rocks could have been...
383
00:18:28,290 --> 00:18:30,580
Manipulated and placed there.
384
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,500
- And we have a ring of boulders.
- No kidding.
385
00:18:34,670 --> 00:18:36,686
It is an exciting moment
386
00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:39,960
for the oak island team on lot 1.
387
00:18:40,130 --> 00:18:43,300
After lifting a Boulder which was marked
388
00:18:43,460 --> 00:18:45,670
on a believed 19th century treasure map
389
00:18:45,790 --> 00:18:47,920
related to Frederick Blair,
390
00:18:48,130 --> 00:18:50,340
they have just unearthed
what appears to be
391
00:18:50,500 --> 00:18:54,130
a man-made ring of large stones.
392
00:18:54,290 --> 00:18:56,670
This seems like an intentional jumble.
393
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,010
Yeah.
394
00:18:58,210 --> 00:18:59,750
But if so, who built it?
395
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,920
And what might the team
find buried underneath it?
396
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,250
What do you want to dig next?
397
00:19:05,420 --> 00:19:06,920
Let's dig a five-foot, radius.
398
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,620
Agreed.
399
00:19:12,460 --> 00:19:14,040
Following the map is pretty exciting.
400
00:19:14,210 --> 00:19:15,960
As we pulled the Boulder out,
401
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,120
there was evidence there was
a lot more rocks around there.
402
00:19:19,330 --> 00:19:22,290
I'm not sure what to think of it,
403
00:19:22,420 --> 00:19:24,260
but they look like they
were put there by man,
404
00:19:24,420 --> 00:19:25,840
and we need to pursue it.
405
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,170
You want to metal-detect this, Gary?
406
00:19:28,330 --> 00:19:29,330
Yep.
407
00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:36,170
That's good.
408
00:19:36,290 --> 00:19:37,790
- Just here, please.
- Yep.
409
00:19:47,210 --> 00:19:48,840
Let me see if I can pinpoint it.
410
00:19:52,540 --> 00:19:53,790
No, it's here.
411
00:19:57,380 --> 00:19:58,960
- Whoa!
- Ooh! Wow.
412
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,830
That's a chunky guy.
413
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,670
Yeah.
414
00:20:02,790 --> 00:20:05,170
Some kind of iron pin.
415
00:20:07,250 --> 00:20:10,460
It's got, like, a-a
wrought iron look to it.
416
00:20:10,630 --> 00:20:13,380
You can see some
striations going down it.
417
00:20:13,540 --> 00:20:14,920
So that's really old.
418
00:20:15,130 --> 00:20:17,340
Yeah. It was way down there.
419
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:18,960
So, another artifact.
420
00:20:19,130 --> 00:20:20,460
That's a good one for Emma.
421
00:20:20,580 --> 00:20:22,460
Yep. All right, put it in the bag.
422
00:20:22,630 --> 00:20:24,226
Wait, Gary, why don't
you go ahead and sweep
423
00:20:24,250 --> 00:20:25,250
the bottom of this?
424
00:20:25,380 --> 00:20:27,710
Okay, mate. Coming in.
425
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:30,710
Good hit just here.
426
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:31,880
Nice!
427
00:20:33,670 --> 00:20:35,460
Is it in that piece of wood?
428
00:20:35,630 --> 00:20:36,800
Maybe.
429
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,460
Only one way to find out.
430
00:20:41,830 --> 00:20:43,460
Let's see.
431
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,210
Is that it?
432
00:20:47,380 --> 00:20:49,840
We've got another piece of old iron
433
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,790
- by the look of it.
- Yeah!
434
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:52,920
Yeah.
435
00:20:53,130 --> 00:20:54,106
I mean, look at that.
436
00:20:54,130 --> 00:20:55,510
It's got a hook on it.
437
00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:58,330
Unless it's bent round.
438
00:20:58,540 --> 00:21:01,210
And, you know what, this is really heavy.
439
00:21:01,380 --> 00:21:02,460
- I mean...
- Is it?
440
00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:04,120
This is hand-forged.
441
00:21:04,250 --> 00:21:05,500
What the hell's going on here?
442
00:21:05,710 --> 00:21:08,750
I don't know, but someone
was here a long time ago
443
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,186
'cause this is old iron.
444
00:21:11,210 --> 00:21:13,540
It sure seems like we're
confirming the map.
445
00:21:13,710 --> 00:21:15,960
- Yep.
- Well, sweep the rest of the hole.
446
00:21:16,130 --> 00:21:18,630
Right. Let's add to the trophy list.
447
00:21:24,420 --> 00:21:26,550
Nope, that was it. Darn it.
448
00:21:26,670 --> 00:21:29,960
- Well, we well and truly explored it, too.
- Yeah.
449
00:21:30,170 --> 00:21:32,550
Although the team is disappointed
450
00:21:32,710 --> 00:21:34,710
to have not found anything of value
451
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,550
beneath the man-made stone feature,
452
00:21:37,710 --> 00:21:41,000
could that be because
it is merely a marker
453
00:21:41,210 --> 00:21:44,750
for valuables that are buried
somewhere else in the area?
454
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,670
Regardless, if the team can determine
455
00:21:47,790 --> 00:21:51,210
the age and possible
origin of these artifacts,
456
00:21:51,380 --> 00:21:53,670
they may still represent valuable clues
457
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,170
toward identifying just
who created this feature.
458
00:21:59,210 --> 00:22:02,840
We have several other places
on the map to go and explore.
459
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,500
And we're burning daylight.
460
00:22:05,630 --> 00:22:06,670
We should dig every one
461
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,340
of the good win map rocks, for sure.
462
00:22:09,540 --> 00:22:12,170
There could be other places on the map
463
00:22:12,330 --> 00:22:14,080
that are still hiding something.
464
00:22:14,250 --> 00:22:17,090
So we can dig and
hopefully find more stuff.
465
00:22:17,210 --> 00:22:18,670
We need to move on with the hunt.
466
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,920
- Yeah.
- Sounds good.
467
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,120
And hopefully find the treasure
associated with the map.
468
00:22:24,290 --> 00:22:26,000
Leave no stone unturned.
469
00:22:26,210 --> 00:22:28,000
That's right!
470
00:22:28,170 --> 00:22:30,670
As the team continues their investigation
471
00:22:30,790 --> 00:22:33,370
on the western end of the island,
472
00:22:33,540 --> 00:22:37,460
over 4,000 miles away in Malta...
473
00:22:38,710 --> 00:22:40,000
Welcome, everyone.
474
00:22:44,710 --> 00:22:48,210
Rick and members of the
team have traveled to mdina,
475
00:22:48,420 --> 00:22:50,550
the one-time capital
when the knights of Malta
476
00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:53,500
first took control of the island nation
477
00:22:53,670 --> 00:22:56,000
back in the early 16th century.
478
00:22:58,380 --> 00:23:01,510
Here, author and researcher corjan mol
479
00:23:01,670 --> 00:23:04,356
has arranged to present them
480
00:23:04,380 --> 00:23:06,300
with new research, which he believes
481
00:23:06,460 --> 00:23:08,290
will further connect the knights of Malta
482
00:23:08,420 --> 00:23:10,460
to the oak island mystery.
483
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,040
Okay.
484
00:23:54,580 --> 00:24:01,000
In Jerusalem in 1187, in acre, 1291,
485
00:24:01,170 --> 00:24:07,040
in ruad, in rhodes, in Paris...
486
00:24:35,330 --> 00:24:37,710
Wow. Interesting.
487
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,340
At the palazzo falson in mdina, Malta,
488
00:24:51,500 --> 00:24:54,726
author and researcher corjan mol
489
00:24:54,750 --> 00:24:57,380
is presenting Rick lagina
and members of the team
490
00:24:57,540 --> 00:25:00,120
with compelling new research.
491
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,170
Research that he believes
492
00:25:09,290 --> 00:25:11,540
could link a family connected
to the knights of Malta
493
00:25:11,750 --> 00:25:14,040
to priceless treasures,
494
00:25:14,170 --> 00:25:16,880
as well as the oak island mystery.
495
00:25:30,750 --> 00:25:32,500
Yeah. Yeah.
496
00:25:33,670 --> 00:25:36,000
In 1307, we have gérard de villiers.
497
00:26:15,630 --> 00:26:18,010
After serving and fighting on behalf
498
00:26:18,210 --> 00:26:21,290
of the catholic church
for nearly two centuries,
499
00:26:21,460 --> 00:26:25,500
on Friday, October 13th, 1307,
500
00:26:25,710 --> 00:26:29,630
pope clement v and
king Philip iv of France
501
00:26:29,750 --> 00:26:31,710
made the stunning decision
502
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,590
to dissolve and prosecute
the order of the knights templar,
503
00:26:35,790 --> 00:26:37,500
on charges of heresy.
504
00:26:37,710 --> 00:26:41,290
However, some researchers believe
505
00:26:41,420 --> 00:26:45,380
that the actual purpose was
to acquire the priceless relics
506
00:26:45,540 --> 00:26:46,870
that the templars were rumored
507
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,040
to have recovered in the holy land,
508
00:26:49,210 --> 00:26:52,920
including the golden menorah
from king Solomon's temple,
509
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,750
the holy grail and the
ark of the covenant.
510
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,960
Treasures which the templars
511
00:27:00,130 --> 00:27:02,010
may have begun
transporting to oak island
512
00:27:02,170 --> 00:27:05,670
as early as 1200 ad.
513
00:27:05,830 --> 00:27:08,460
Although many templars were arrested,
514
00:27:08,630 --> 00:27:10,170
imprisoned and executed,
515
00:27:10,380 --> 00:27:12,840
some are known to have escaped,
516
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:17,000
and their remaining treasures
disappeared without a trace.
517
00:27:36,210 --> 00:27:37,290
Very interesting.
518
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,540
In 1632, French naval captain
519
00:28:28,710 --> 00:28:31,750
and knight of Malta Isaac de razilly
520
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,000
commanded an
expedition to North America
521
00:28:34,210 --> 00:28:37,840
in order to establish
France's colony of acadia,
522
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,920
now known as Nova Scotia.
523
00:28:42,210 --> 00:28:44,960
For his efforts, he was appointed the title
524
00:28:45,130 --> 00:28:47,880
of lieutenant general for new France.
525
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,460
Curiously, the site that de razilly chose
526
00:28:51,670 --> 00:28:53,090
for the colony's headquarters
527
00:28:53,210 --> 00:28:55,880
was fort point on the la have river,
528
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,710
located only 15 miles south of oak island.
529
00:29:28,170 --> 00:29:30,130
To me, I think the most
compelling part so far
530
00:29:30,290 --> 00:29:33,000
is the connection between these people
531
00:29:33,170 --> 00:29:34,880
who were in charge
of the knights templar
532
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,830
and the de villiers who
arrived in Nova Scotia.
533
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,400
I mean, you've got people connected
534
00:29:40,540 --> 00:29:43,370
to both sides of the Atlantic.
535
00:29:43,540 --> 00:29:44,710
Yeah.
536
00:29:44,830 --> 00:29:46,210
The oak island story, to me,
537
00:29:46,380 --> 00:29:49,630
was always even more
than multigenerational,
538
00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:51,500
it was multi-depositional.
539
00:29:51,630 --> 00:29:53,760
And that's what you have laid out today.
540
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,500
I'm excited about the possibilities
541
00:29:55,710 --> 00:29:57,290
of what oak island represents.
542
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,090
Corjan provided us with
some connective tissue
543
00:30:01,210 --> 00:30:05,170
and a framework upon which
we can build, but right now,
544
00:30:05,290 --> 00:30:06,920
it's time to get back to oak island
545
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,660
and finish the work for the year.
546
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,010
My hope is that we can
work towards the ultimate goal
547
00:30:12,170 --> 00:30:14,880
of really saying with periods
at the end of the sentences,
548
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,120
not question marks,
"this is what happened."
549
00:30:18,290 --> 00:30:22,460
And if it is this story, quite remarkable.
550
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:26,330
It's been a pleasure.
551
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,080
As Rick and the rest of the team
552
00:30:30,290 --> 00:30:34,000
make the long journey back
to oak island from Malta...
553
00:30:34,210 --> 00:30:35,726
This is probably the
closest we're gonna get.
554
00:30:35,750 --> 00:30:37,290
Yep.
555
00:30:37,460 --> 00:30:39,686
Well, already, it looks like
this Boulder's been placed.
556
00:30:39,710 --> 00:30:41,170
Yeah.
557
00:30:41,330 --> 00:30:43,830
Marty lagina, Craig tester,
558
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,920
and other members of
the team arrive on lot 21.
559
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:50,766
It looks like it's laying
right on top of the ground.
560
00:30:50,790 --> 00:30:53,040
Yeah.
561
00:30:53,210 --> 00:30:55,250
They are preparing to
investigate another Boulder
562
00:30:55,460 --> 00:30:58,750
that was identified on
the believed treasure map
563
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,500
based on the research of Frederick Blair.
564
00:31:02,460 --> 00:31:04,670
So, this one on the map is important,
565
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,680
because it helped me
find all the other ones.
566
00:31:06,790 --> 00:31:09,170
It's almost like an
anchor stone on a map,
567
00:31:09,380 --> 00:31:10,806
where everything was
calculated from this.
568
00:31:10,830 --> 00:31:12,960
I see. Okay.
569
00:31:13,170 --> 00:31:15,210
Well, let's have a look at it.
570
00:31:15,380 --> 00:31:17,160
We can try to get some of those
dead branches out of the way.
571
00:31:17,184 --> 00:31:17,556
Yeah. Yeah.
572
00:31:17,580 --> 00:31:20,540
We are at the anchor
stone from the map.
573
00:31:20,710 --> 00:31:22,130
It's important, I think.
574
00:31:22,290 --> 00:31:24,500
Any surveyor needs a reference point.
575
00:31:24,670 --> 00:31:28,090
So, here's a big Boulder,
embedded nicely in the ground,
576
00:31:28,250 --> 00:31:31,500
very difficult to move,
but incredibly intriguing.
577
00:31:31,630 --> 00:31:34,670
So, what happened here?
578
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,840
We're sure gonna investigate it.
579
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,000
Hey, Gary. Should you
sweep first before we do it?
580
00:31:40,130 --> 00:31:42,056
Yeah. I'll go over the top
581
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,880
and I'll try and get
around as much as I can.
582
00:31:53,290 --> 00:31:55,830
Got a good hit, just here.
583
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,040
And it's right there, Jack.
584
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,660
Yep. We got it.
585
00:32:12,460 --> 00:32:14,170
Ooh.
586
00:32:15,130 --> 00:32:16,210
What is that?
587
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,120
Well, what is that doing here?
588
00:32:22,250 --> 00:32:23,920
- A little ox shoe.
- Look at that.
589
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,160
On lot 21,
590
00:32:26,330 --> 00:32:28,660
while investigating a
Boulder that was marked
591
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,300
on a map connected to 19th-century
592
00:32:31,460 --> 00:32:33,540
treasure hunter Frederick Blair...
593
00:32:33,710 --> 00:32:36,170
Obviously, this isn't
farmland just around here.
594
00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:37,840
It's too rocky.
595
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,500
Members of the oak island team
596
00:32:39,630 --> 00:32:43,340
have just made a potentially
important discovery.
597
00:32:44,380 --> 00:32:47,800
Someone was using ox to
pull boulders into position.
598
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,750
- That's one heck of a clue.
- Yeah.
599
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,356
All right, well, let's move this stone.
600
00:32:51,380 --> 00:32:52,800
Yep.
601
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,710
Could the team be correct
602
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,050
that perhaps an oxen was used long ago
603
00:32:58,210 --> 00:33:01,000
to position this Boulder
as a marker for something?
604
00:33:01,130 --> 00:33:04,380
If so, what was it marking?
605
00:33:04,580 --> 00:33:06,660
And might the team find the answer
606
00:33:06,830 --> 00:33:08,750
by digging beneath it?
607
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,080
That's a hell of a lot of rocks.
608
00:33:12,250 --> 00:33:14,170
- Is that natural?
- I don't know.
609
00:33:14,380 --> 00:33:17,010
These angular rocks
look like some of the rocks
610
00:33:17,130 --> 00:33:18,930
that we found in the
paved area in the swamp.
611
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,290
Yep.
612
00:33:20,460 --> 00:33:22,000
Let's see.
613
00:33:22,170 --> 00:33:23,550
Come on, baby.
614
00:33:30,830 --> 00:33:32,620
No metals yet.
615
00:33:32,830 --> 00:33:36,000
I'd love to find a piece
of metal this deep.
616
00:33:36,210 --> 00:33:38,880
There's the c-horizon.
617
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,540
- That's it, isn't it?
- Yep.
618
00:33:41,750 --> 00:33:45,330
Because the team has
dug into the c-horizon,
619
00:33:45,540 --> 00:33:49,040
or the natural layer of
earth below the topsoil,
620
00:33:49,210 --> 00:33:51,500
it means that they have reached a depth
621
00:33:51,670 --> 00:33:54,090
where there is no more
evidence of human activity
622
00:33:54,250 --> 00:33:57,000
beneath the believed man-made feature.
623
00:33:57,170 --> 00:33:59,500
I think this Boulder was
just used for reference.
624
00:33:59,670 --> 00:34:01,670
I don't think it was used to hide anything,
625
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,380
- or anything like that.
- Yeah.
626
00:34:03,540 --> 00:34:06,460
- But it seems like it was placed here.
- Yeah.
627
00:34:06,630 --> 00:34:07,920
It was placed, for sure.
628
00:34:08,130 --> 00:34:11,090
There's got to be
something buried nearby.
629
00:34:11,210 --> 00:34:12,840
Yes.
630
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,640
A few years ago, I
would have downplayed
631
00:34:14,830 --> 00:34:16,226
that the western part of
the island had anything to do
632
00:34:16,250 --> 00:34:18,250
with the treasure mystery,
633
00:34:18,380 --> 00:34:20,920
but I can't do that anymore,
because there's been evidence,
634
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,080
good evidence, to the contrary.
635
00:34:23,210 --> 00:34:26,170
So, we have to do a lot of investigation.
636
00:34:26,330 --> 00:34:30,580
If the boulders are indeed
markers, my ears perk up.
637
00:34:30,710 --> 00:34:34,130
Then we know that something
spectacularly important
638
00:34:34,330 --> 00:34:36,080
happened in this area.
639
00:34:37,830 --> 00:34:39,160
No.
640
00:34:40,750 --> 00:34:44,500
Unfortunately, no more
metals, just that one ox shoe.
641
00:34:44,670 --> 00:34:46,976
So, we can get that to the
lab and compare it to the rest?
642
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,170
- Yep.
- All right.
643
00:34:48,380 --> 00:34:51,210
- Time to move.
- It is.
644
00:34:54,130 --> 00:34:55,760
The following day...
645
00:34:57,290 --> 00:35:00,460
Okay. We have basically
the whole brain trust here
646
00:35:00,630 --> 00:35:03,510
because Rick and the
team, that went to Malta
647
00:35:03,710 --> 00:35:05,340
is back with information.
648
00:35:05,500 --> 00:35:07,210
Having just returned to oak island,
649
00:35:07,380 --> 00:35:10,460
Rick lagina is meeting
with his brother Marty
650
00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:13,460
and other members of
the team in the museum.
651
00:35:13,630 --> 00:35:15,186
So, I'd like to know what you guys found,
652
00:35:15,210 --> 00:35:18,420
what you did and-and, then of course
653
00:35:18,580 --> 00:35:21,080
we want to tell you what we found.
654
00:35:21,250 --> 00:35:23,170
In general, what we
did was a lot of digging.
655
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:27,920
Specifically, we went and
thoroughly researched the map.
656
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,330
The Blair treasure map.
657
00:35:29,500 --> 00:35:30,920
Okay.
658
00:35:31,130 --> 00:35:32,510
We dug under the two boulders
659
00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:34,880
because it seemed to
be markers for something,
660
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,460
but we didn't find any treasure.
661
00:35:36,630 --> 00:35:39,260
And I did go out and
take a look at the boulders.
662
00:35:39,380 --> 00:35:42,130
So, the anchor Boulder
on lot 21, it's been moved.
663
00:35:43,210 --> 00:35:46,420
The other Boulder, it's
probably been moved.
664
00:35:46,630 --> 00:35:49,090
At least it's been... there's
been digging around it.
665
00:35:49,250 --> 00:35:50,830
So, it looks like it's been adjusted.
666
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:55,500
But my take on the map is
that it's-it's very important.
667
00:35:55,710 --> 00:35:58,670
It's the one treasure map that exists.
668
00:35:59,630 --> 00:36:02,170
The Blair map certainly suggests
669
00:36:02,380 --> 00:36:04,130
that there's treasure, but it's just a map.
670
00:36:04,330 --> 00:36:07,040
It's not treasure. It is not proof of that.
671
00:36:07,250 --> 00:36:09,290
The proof is in the ground.
672
00:36:09,460 --> 00:36:12,000
And I think we are all
quite enthusiastic about it
673
00:36:12,210 --> 00:36:14,420
for one simple reason,
this is a treasure hunt
674
00:36:14,580 --> 00:36:16,660
and this is a treasure map.
675
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,010
We'll do whatever it takes
to come to a conclusion.
676
00:36:20,170 --> 00:36:23,460
A very significant final one
677
00:36:23,670 --> 00:36:25,840
from our time while you were away,
678
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,340
is that button right there.
679
00:36:28,500 --> 00:36:30,330
That was found by laird and his team
680
00:36:30,540 --> 00:36:34,500
near the steps into the lot 5 feature.
681
00:36:34,670 --> 00:36:36,800
Right next to the other star burst button.
682
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,920
The scans that Emma made,
683
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,330
it really is a very beautiful thing.
684
00:36:41,500 --> 00:36:44,790
I looked at the scan that Emma did
685
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,340
and it reminds me of
something that we saw in Malta.
686
00:36:48,330 --> 00:36:50,290
Really?
687
00:36:54,710 --> 00:36:56,460
I looked at the scan that Emma did
688
00:36:56,580 --> 00:36:58,516
and it reminds me of
something that we saw in Malta.
689
00:36:58,540 --> 00:37:00,000
Really?
690
00:37:00,170 --> 00:37:01,670
In the oak island museum,
691
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,170
Alex lagina has just made
a surprising observation
692
00:37:05,290 --> 00:37:07,120
regarding the floral button
693
00:37:07,290 --> 00:37:10,710
that was found one week ago on lot 5.
694
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:15,170
So, we visited a prison
at the cittadella on gozo
695
00:37:15,380 --> 00:37:19,210
and carved into the wall
there was this symbol.
696
00:37:19,380 --> 00:37:20,760
Steve, if you could pull that up.
697
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,300
Keep on going.
698
00:37:22,460 --> 00:37:24,210
That, right there.
699
00:37:24,380 --> 00:37:27,880
So, this is graffiti on
the walls of the prison.
700
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:29,580
It was obviously significant enough
701
00:37:29,710 --> 00:37:33,260
to be carved in the wall
of a prison that at one time
702
00:37:33,420 --> 00:37:36,000
held members of the knights of Malta.
703
00:37:37,250 --> 00:37:39,500
There are actually similarities between
704
00:37:39,630 --> 00:37:42,130
- that carving and the button.
- Yep.
705
00:37:42,290 --> 00:37:44,330
A carving found on the wall
706
00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:48,040
of a 16th-century prison in gozo, Malta?
707
00:37:48,210 --> 00:37:50,540
One similar in design to the floral button
708
00:37:50,750 --> 00:37:54,210
that was found near the
stone foundation on lot 5?
709
00:37:54,380 --> 00:37:56,710
Could this be further evidence
710
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,010
that the knights of
Malta made a secret visit
711
00:37:59,130 --> 00:38:02,670
to oak island nearly 400 years ago?
712
00:38:03,580 --> 00:38:05,500
And so, at this same prison,
713
00:38:05,710 --> 00:38:07,420
there's all kinds of carvings on the wall.
714
00:38:07,580 --> 00:38:10,160
- That's a Maltese cross.
- Maltese cross, yeah.
715
00:38:10,330 --> 00:38:13,080
- There's the four-dot cross.
- Which it's on the h+o stone.
716
00:38:13,250 --> 00:38:14,460
Yeah.
717
00:38:14,580 --> 00:38:16,460
So, I kind of approached it
718
00:38:16,580 --> 00:38:19,020
from the kind of "means, motive
and opportunity" perspective.
719
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,410
Opportunity is kind of settled,
because we know they were here.
720
00:38:22,540 --> 00:38:25,330
Um, so, we wanted to investigate
the means and the motive.
721
00:38:25,500 --> 00:38:27,540
And we saw a means and motive
722
00:38:27,750 --> 00:38:30,000
when we went underground in Valletta.
723
00:38:30,170 --> 00:38:32,840
We saw the means, because
they have these massive cisterns
724
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,130
that they carved 60 feet under the city,
725
00:38:36,290 --> 00:38:37,710
and a network of tunnels.
726
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:43,080
So, what was interesting
for me was, in these tunnels,
727
00:38:43,250 --> 00:38:46,170
they used blue Clay to seal off water flow
728
00:38:46,290 --> 00:38:48,580
to protect its valuable items.
729
00:38:48,750 --> 00:38:49,750
Yeah.
730
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,130
So, here, this kind of reminded me
731
00:38:52,330 --> 00:38:54,710
of the old description of the money pit.
732
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,510
The hard rock, you can see
the pick marks in the sides.
733
00:38:58,630 --> 00:39:01,420
I mean, you are literally
walking through history here.
734
00:39:01,580 --> 00:39:03,580
- It's incredible.
- Yeah.
735
00:39:03,710 --> 00:39:06,840
Okay. When we talk
about the knights templar,
736
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,170
we know they had this
sneak attack on them in 1307.
737
00:39:10,290 --> 00:39:12,000
Yeah.
738
00:39:12,170 --> 00:39:14,396
And there's a legend that
people left with a great treasure.
739
00:39:14,420 --> 00:39:15,840
Are there legends like that?
740
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,540
Corjan was able to trace
members of the knights templar
741
00:39:19,710 --> 00:39:22,420
leaving possibly with treasure.
742
00:39:22,630 --> 00:39:24,190
- That's what I'm looking for.
- Right.
743
00:39:24,290 --> 00:39:26,920
And it's connected to one
family, the de villiers family.
744
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:28,580
The family itself maintains
745
00:39:28,750 --> 00:39:30,830
positions of importance
within the knights of Malta.
746
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,590
Right. A member of the
family left with the treasure
747
00:39:34,710 --> 00:39:37,670
- just after the suppression of 1307.
- Right.
748
00:39:37,830 --> 00:39:42,500
So, perhaps this one family
was charged with the protection
749
00:39:42,670 --> 00:39:45,500
of certain relics, certain treasure.
750
00:39:45,710 --> 00:39:47,500
Yeah. I mean, the knights of Malta
751
00:39:47,670 --> 00:39:50,500
that was here in the mid-1600s,
752
00:39:50,670 --> 00:39:53,920
landed in la havre a
few miles from oak island,
753
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,170
supposedly related
to the de villiers family.
754
00:39:56,290 --> 00:39:58,500
They not only had
money, they had power
755
00:39:58,710 --> 00:40:01,170
- and they had knowledge.
- Yeah.
756
00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:03,840
So, you can conclude
that the knights of Malta
757
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,580
clearly had the scientific
and the technical ability
758
00:40:07,750 --> 00:40:09,540
to construct massive
things underground.
759
00:40:09,710 --> 00:40:13,000
And we do know from
judi and others' research
760
00:40:13,210 --> 00:40:16,090
that the-the knights of
Malta were definitely here.
761
00:40:16,210 --> 00:40:17,590
Just 20 miles down the road.
762
00:40:17,710 --> 00:40:19,960
So, there's a connection.
763
00:40:20,170 --> 00:40:22,556
Well, look, all I can say is,
you know, a job well done.
764
00:40:22,580 --> 00:40:24,080
We learned a lot in Malta.
765
00:40:25,580 --> 00:40:27,220
But I think we need to go back out there,
766
00:40:27,330 --> 00:40:31,160
because you want to exhaust
all the potential discoveries
767
00:40:31,330 --> 00:40:34,356
- that yet remain out there.
- Yes.
768
00:40:34,380 --> 00:40:36,050
- Time to dig, Marty.
- That's right.
769
00:40:36,210 --> 00:40:38,500
And I'll tell you what this has done,
770
00:40:38,670 --> 00:40:40,670
this perhaps opens our
eyes to look more carefully
771
00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:42,396
at the things that are
going to be coming out
772
00:40:42,420 --> 00:40:43,960
of our last caisson in the money pit.
773
00:40:44,130 --> 00:40:46,510
So, now with this background,
we can keep our eye peeled
774
00:40:46,710 --> 00:40:48,500
for things that might be meaningful.
775
00:40:48,670 --> 00:40:50,210
- Let's go see.
- Yep.
776
00:40:50,420 --> 00:40:52,000
Back to work.
777
00:40:52,130 --> 00:40:54,510
For more than 200 years,
778
00:40:54,670 --> 00:40:57,050
people have uncovered
compelling evidence
779
00:40:57,250 --> 00:41:00,880
that oak island is hiding
an incredible secret.
780
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:05,460
Could the new clues that
Rick, Marty and their team
781
00:41:05,630 --> 00:41:10,960
have found both on the
island, and 4,000 miles away,
782
00:41:11,130 --> 00:41:14,760
suggest that secret
may be more profound
783
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,380
than anyone ever imagined?
784
00:41:17,540 --> 00:41:19,830
Now, as the team prepares
785
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:24,000
for their most ambitious dig
ever in the money pit area,
786
00:41:24,170 --> 00:41:28,170
perhaps the secret will finally be revealed
787
00:41:28,330 --> 00:41:33,000
more than 200 feet underground.
788
00:41:35,500 --> 00:41:38,040
Next time, on the curse of oak island...
789
00:41:38,210 --> 00:41:39,630
Into the solution channel we go.
790
00:41:39,750 --> 00:41:41,266
- Into the void.
- Our best guess is that
791
00:41:41,290 --> 00:41:44,210
the treasure is 200 feet
under that spot right there.
792
00:41:44,380 --> 00:41:45,590
Ooh, look at that!
793
00:41:45,710 --> 00:41:47,390
The vault connects
the swamp, potentially,
794
00:41:47,500 --> 00:41:48,830
to the knights of Malta.
795
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,790
- What is that?
- That might be depositor.
796
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,960
The only time I see
primitive tools this size
797
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,330
- was from the 1500s.
- Way before the money pit.
798
00:41:57,500 --> 00:41:59,146
- Here we go.
- We're into the solution channel.
799
00:41:59,170 --> 00:42:00,710
- We're just coming into it.
- Baby!
800
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,550
- Check that out.
- Reveal your secrets.
801
00:42:02,750 --> 00:42:05,000
