Handbook Of Treasure Signs And Symbols
Information
In all cultures, mysteries, symbols, and signs borrow from vision,
experience, and religion. Strung together, they create a picture or
message, the building blocks of communication. If understood, they can
guide an attentive hunter to a long-hidden treasure! Ninety percent of
the work involved in finding a treasure cache is research. Anything else
and the recovery is nothing but pure luck. You must think like the
person who buried it in the first place. Concealment is a matter of
secrecy and camouflaging. The message-writer used symbols to describe
his/her own identity or that of the treasure, navigational directions,
landmarks, distance, or even superstitions involved with the trove.
Carson has unearthed all manners of hidden messaging. Info-packed and
filled with excellent illustrations and case studies ?" the edges of
your treasure-hunting braincells will illuminate (the attic light
suddenly goes on!). A must-have research tool for those hunting lost
& forgotten caches.
