00:00This must be the solution channel that has the ability to hide treasure. I got something right in here. There it is. Yeah, it's there
00:11Well done life
00:13My gosh Laird, can you tell him this is a jewel? It is high-grade made in the old world. Yeah, that takes us to a whole new level
00:26There is an island in the North Atlantic
00:30Where people have been looking for an incredible treasure for more than 200 years
00:36So far they have found a stone slab with strange symbols carved into it man-made workings that date to medieval times and
00:46A lead cross whose origin may be connected to the Knights Templar
00:52to date six men have died trying to solve the mystery and
00:56And according to legend one more will have to die before the treasure can be found
01:05Just firing up here
01:19I'm pretty hopeful about this. I think it could be a good borehole
01:23The thing I like about this one in particular we're gonna hit the western side of the solution channel
01:29another area where the treasure might have dropped a
01:31A fresh morning on Oak Island brings renewed hope for brothers Rick and Marty Lagina
01:38That they will soon hold in their hands the answers to a 230 year old mystery
01:45Let's face it guys. It's very exciting, right? The reason we're drilling this because of the collapse
01:50That's where it could have gone. Yeah, the team is drilling a new borehole known as h9.25
01:58Located in an area where new water testing showed more evidence that suggests the treasure may lie some 200 feet deep in the solution channel
02:08It is also in this region that soil samples are currently being tested to confirm those results
02:15Tell me how close we are to the key wells
02:19RF1 h8. So we're five feet south of h8. That's very close to the chapel shaft
02:25We are in the southwest corner of the chapel shaft. So we're in an area I like
02:28Okay
02:29I see lots of wood in
02:34In 2017 the team dug the five-foot diameter h8 shaft
02:38We're rotating down with every now and then we have to come up and clean our teeth out because of the wood right and at
02:44170 feet it hit a large object that may have been the legendary chapel vault a
02:51Seven-foot high wooden box that treasure hunters Frederick Blair and William Chapel
02:57Reportedly drilled into back in
02:591897 and extracted gold shavings
03:04Along with a piece of parchment bearing the letters VI
03:09But unfortunately the h8 caisson may have pushed the possible vault somewhere deeper and potentially into the solution channel
03:19Could it be possible that the precious metals the team detected in this area came from the damaged vault?
03:26I think the chapels had the money pick correct
03:29They just didn't go deep enough as we've learned
03:32Yeah, because of the collapse. So I'm pretty hopeful about this. I think it could be a good borehole
03:37If I had to pick the most likely
03:40Hole to actually encounter some of this deeply fallen treasure, I would think it's this
03:46The biggest thing to me is that the h8 canister started going down on its own
03:54Right about the point where we were pretty excited that we might be finding the vault the plug just fell
03:59We lost all the material well sure sounds to me like the solution channel being able to swallow things up including treasure
04:06So we're gonna see if we can find it
04:08You know what I'm looking for I want you to find an actual bit of treasure
04:13That's what I want to find exactly and then put the big boy down on it. Yeah
04:18Yeah, all right guys seriously. I think my work here is done. Just find me some data and a coin would be nice
04:24Okay, sounds good. Marty all good. Sounds great. See you guys
04:28Okay, as h9.25 descends deeper towards the solution channel
04:36Today's the day Gary. Yeah, we're on oak island. Yeah, the possibilities are endless. That's right
04:42Alex Lagina and members of the team
04:45Continue to expose a stone feature in the southwest corner of the swamp
04:50One that may be connected to a road like structure several yards to the north
04:54Where they found part of a european hand cannon that could be as much as 800 years old
05:03We're just gonna comb through this and work our way closer into the swamp. Got it find some artifacts and keep our eyes open
05:10You never know we might find some old wooden stakes. I mean one of the most important artifacts
05:15We found in this area was the ship's railing which was just over there. Yeah, I think that dated to the 600s, right?
05:22Okay, well if you dig we'll metal detect and keep our eyes peeled and see what we find. Yeah, let's find some artifacts
05:32I couldn't enumerate the number of finds that have been made in the bog to date
05:37They've been expensive and extensive and important in the search for answers here on the island
05:43But there's a lot of information missing
05:52We got this is interesting piece of shaped wood
05:57Kind of reminds me of when we were digging in this area. We found that ship's rail. Oh, yeah
06:05Over the years the team has found numerous ship related artifacts all across the swamp
06:10That have been dated to between the 1600s and the seventh century
06:14It's great conditions, but it's been buried in the swamp for a long time
06:21Could gary be correct that they found another piece of ship's railing in the southwest corner?
06:27If so might it be related to the stone structures in this area and help them learn more about their origins?
06:34It's kind of plankish. It looks like it's curved and beveled. Maybe I'm seeing things but kind of looks shaped like that
06:46This this face really does I mean that's cut and here as well
06:54Yeah, first I thought it was like a piece of railing yeah, you know how it looks
06:59At first glance, it looks like it's shaped going deliberately. Yeah
07:02We might be able to show that to a shipwright
07:05Somebody who knows the older techniques of making a ship. Yeah wonder if it's big enough for c14
07:12I like the fact that this woods got beveled the edges
07:16Now that always looks like planking to me
07:20And that's important because it's well out of place buried in the swamp. It's definitely big enough for c14
07:26Yeah, so we can figure out how old it is. Yeah
07:29Definitely an interesting piece. I'll pull that to one side
07:34I still believe we're just scratching the surface
07:38As the dig continues in the swamp
07:41Several hundred yards to the west on lot five
07:45Found a small shard of creamware. Oh nice. It's really really small though. Yeah
07:51perfect
07:52Laird Niven and the archaeology team search for more clues in the round feature near the shoreline
07:59After recently finding a sixth venetian bead in this feature
08:03Which could be related to the knights of malta and unearthing a sixth roman coin nearby that may be linked to the knights templar
08:13The team is working to prove that numerous groups may have occupied lot five at different times long before the discovery of the money pit
08:22Oh
08:27Oh wow
08:29Got some pearlware. Oh nice. Yeah
08:33Getting small, but yeah
08:35We'll have to do more analysis on this I guess. Yeah
08:39Uh, what are the dates on creamware again? Uh creamware starts around 1762. Okay, and then the pearlware would start around
08:47uh 1775. Okay
08:50I have long believed that this is a multi-generational attempt
08:55Over decades perhaps even centuries to hide or safeguard something
09:00I can't prove it yet, but the finds associated with the lot five feature are very interesting and thought-provoking and intriguing
09:08Oh nice
09:15What'd you find?
09:17Looks like
09:19Red earthenware. Oh, it's got a really nice design on it
09:23Wow, that's a great piece. It's a big piece. Yeah, it's got a really nice floral design
09:28The coarse earthenwares are hard to date. It can be anywhere from 1750 to 1830. So okay
09:37Right in our time range. Yeah
09:39Great vine. Oh, thank you. You're welcome. I'll bag it up. See if there's any more in there. Yeah
09:43Oh my god Laird, I think I just found something really cool
09:59Oh
10:07Oh my gosh, Laird, I think I just found something really cool. Okay
10:14While digging in the rounded stone foundation on lot five
10:17Isabel Whittier has just uncovered a potentially important clue. Check this out. Oh, nice
10:30Can you tell if this is a jewel? It's meant to look like a jewel in imitation of a jewel. Okay
10:35We found a larger one but clear just over here
10:40It looked like costume jewelry. Then we found out it's kind of a technique that was developed in the 1740s in France
10:46That's so cool. Imitation jewelry became very popular with the french royal family. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah
10:54In the early 18th century
10:57French jeweler george friedrich strass
10:59invented simulated gemstones
11:03by mixing elements such as bismuth thallium and lead with glass powder
11:09a paste-like substance was formed it was then heated and molded to create artificial stones
11:16nearly matching the brilliance of actual gems
11:19One year ago the team found a simulated diamond just outside of the round feature
11:27Would this be valuable? I think back in the mid 1700s it probably was
11:33If Laird is correct that this is a similar artifact
11:37Could it be another clue to help identify one of the groups that occupied the stone foundation prior to 1795?
11:43Emma can actually xrf the side and tell you what kind of metal it was sitting in
11:51So we know that it was set into something and displayed on someone's clothes
11:56If she finds out that it's set in silver or gold that just takes us to a whole new level
12:02Right just it just adds a lot of significance to this little tiny artifact
12:07Yeah
12:07Adding to the intrigue
12:10Yeah, that's that's really exciting
12:13I can't wait to get that back to the lab and see what emma says about it. Me too. That's cool
12:17We're finding some neat stuff here. Yeah
12:25The following morning
12:28Back again. It's good to see you good to be back. You know I love the swamp. Yeah, let's get started. All right
12:35Katya Drayton and Derek Couch join Billy to search for more artifacts near the stone feature in the southwest corner of the swamp
12:47Something shiny on top there might be a piece of glass or something, right? Oh, yeah
13:00Right there
13:06Big old piece of glass. Yeah
13:08So a really great way to tell if glass is old or not is any imperfections glass nowadays is made manufactured
13:19There's hardly any imperfections
13:22Bubbles
13:23seams
13:24Anything that may give you an idea if it's hand blown is a great way to identify if glass is old or not
13:31This is probably from a bottle
13:33This would be like a older
13:35Maybe like a medicine bottle or something
13:39It's square on the edge. So that's how you know it's like has some date to it and it's small as well
13:45So this is an older piece
13:48Which is good. Yeah
13:50By learning what type of glass this is and what it was used for we can see who was here and what they were doing
13:57We'll keep this. Yeah
14:03That's some wood here we go a little round piece gotcha let me see
14:17That's cut there isn't it that's cut yeah that's cut wow good eye billy yeah that's a great one
14:24It's really deep for wood three and a half four feet probably that's way below that sand
14:29And dr. Spooner would say that's the topsoil before the swamp was formed that's down in the depth of the ship's rail
14:35That's a find right there. I would say
14:38How
14:39Close are we to where the other ship's railing was found?
14:43Less than a hundred feet
14:44It's one of the deepest finds that we've had in the swamp of a piece of cut wood
14:48This could mean something right
14:50In 2020 the team found a piece of ship's railing while digging near the southern border of the swamp
14:59Incredibly it was carbon dated to as early as the seventh century
15:05There's been a lot of people that thought that there have been ships in the swamp
15:09So I think it could be very significant
15:11Is it possible that the team has found a related discovery in the southwest corner of the swamp?
15:18If there's a ship of some sort out there it would fit really really well
15:22To any of the theories that somebody came here and buried old world treasure
15:27We have so many ship-like artifacts at this point but
15:31Extraordinary theories take extraordinary data. I don't think we quite have that yet, but here's another piece
15:38If this is a piece of a ship, I bet you there's more pieces of ship i'd rather find what the ship is carrying derek
15:43So let's look for that right
15:45That's true. That's true. That's why cadi is here, right?
15:49Well, let's try and find some more. Yeah
15:53Keep the lookers peeled. Yeah as the search in the swamp continues
15:59So thank you everybody for coming we have a really interesting artifact from lot five
16:05In the lab emma culligan is about to share her analysis of the artificial gemstone found one day ago on lot five
16:13This looks like that the paste jewelry gem
16:18It's exactly what it is
16:20So this one's obviously dark
16:23And the one we found last year was white was clear
16:26And as you can explain the composition
16:30Well, it's pretty much the same thing as last year
16:33But this one is black and it's black due to the addition of manganese and calcium
16:39And it has less lead in it, which is why it's not as brilliant. So it's not a shiny or sparkly
16:44They're called diamantes like this is the official term
16:48The purpose of it is to be dark and matte
16:51But it's the same era similar composition
16:56And the fastener there's a trace of tin around the edges
17:02Which we also found in the composition or last year's jewel as well
17:06And something like that would have been made in the old world
17:09Yep not here no early to mid 1700s in france
17:14And from the composition I can tell you that it is like high grade
17:19And it was for people of the upper class
17:22Yeah
17:23Because they would have the same amount of shine or even more shine than the diamonds
17:27So these are not trade items per se
17:30I think what makes it not a trade item is the fact that it was mounted
17:34If it was a trade item they'd be loose
17:37I see
17:38Just reading your report there
17:41No earlier than 1734 or no later?
17:43Well the oldest possible days 1734
17:46Because that's when it was really being invented and introduced
17:51So after 1734?
17:53Yeah
17:55Fashion travels quickly
17:56Especially with the upper class and the new shiny thing
18:01When did it go out of style?
18:02It went right into the Victorian era
18:05This is high quality
18:07It represents probably the initial phase before it percolates down
18:11And the cheaper copies are made for less affluent people
18:15What's it telling you about what was going on in Lot 5?
18:19Yeah
18:19Well I think it makes a statement about stature
18:22I think this was a higher class of people
18:27So with the black pastoral I have seen references to military uniform
18:35Timeline wise it does fit the duke d'anville's expedition here
18:39mid 1700s french
18:43Very interesting
18:48Timeline wise it does fit the duke d'anville's expedition here
18:52In the oak island lab emma has just confirmed
18:56that the simulated glass gem found in the round feature on lot 5
19:00is french in origin and dates back to the mid 18th century
19:06You know the duke d'anville's expedition was mid 1700s french
19:12something to keep in mind
19:13In 1746 france launched an armada to reclaim nova scotia from great britain
19:23It was led by an admiral known as the duke d'anville a nobleman from a family
19:29with connections to the knights templar dating back to the 12th century
19:35Unfortunately due to severe storms and a wave of disease the mission ultimately failed
19:41I found eight pages of what looks like a ship's log
19:46but curiously in 2017 doug kroll discovered an 18th century ship's log in the provincial archives
19:55stating that one of d'anville's ships carried a large cache of treasure to a wooded island in the vicinity
20:02of oak island where the crew buried it in a deep pit
20:07This is a very strong indicator that somebody of high status was on lot 5
20:12We know that the duke d'anville did come here to nova scotia
20:16and indeed the d'anville family as a connection to the knights templar
20:20if there was some incredible treasure out of history that made its way here to north america
20:27it could have been done as part of the duke d'anville's expedition
20:30finding these things that belong to somebody in a military position
20:35i wonder why were they on the island what were they doing
20:39is it possible that the two simulated french gemstones found on lot 5
20:45could be connected to the treasure reportedly buried by the crew of the duke d'anville
20:51the dots are very far apart right now right but we're accumulating them but you're accumulating
20:57yeah exactly you know there's always been the idea that there might be an association here with duke d'anville
21:05the archaeological efforts are strongly hinting at multiple occupations on lot 5 from the 1200s right up through 1750
21:15i believe this was a multi-generational attempt to hide something and perhaps the duke d'anville
21:23wasn't part of that endeavor this is step by step clue by clue and every clue is important because
21:32at some point they will connect up at some point they will tell a story so thank you for for bringing
21:38us down it's a it's an interesting find but i hope we can learn more about it all right yeah excellent thank
21:43you great thank you thank you as the team concludes their meeting in the lab
21:48we're gonna keep looking let's do it billy concha and derek continue to search in the southwest corner of the swamp
22:03wow i mean look at that that's excellent that is a cut steak if i've ever seen one
22:12yeah and so close to the last find we just had oh my god that's pretty cool that's definitely cut
22:26i need a bigger bag put the stuff in definitely i know it's soaked but it's a really heavy piece too
22:36yeah let's soak because we're below the level of the ocean here right
22:38mm-hmm it's so preserved and basically clean right because it's in a perfect environment to store wood
22:45yeah a hand-cut wooden stake there's another one i mean what in the world is happening
22:53because the team has found a number of survey stakes lining stone features
22:58such as the structure that was recently uncovered several yards to the north
23:03is it possible that they have just discovered more evidence that the two features may have been
23:09built by the same people if so just who was it we can get a lot of information off that i think so yeah
23:18i'm sure there's a purpose for that just that is definitely cut and so is the other one yeah that's
23:24a bigger piece right bigger cut right this gives dr spooner more information yeah we've got some potential
23:32here i'm excited to keep going we'll work to keep the lab busy yeah
23:41as another day dawns on oak island while drilling continues in the money pit area
23:48hey gary how are you derek hey dr spooner how are you doing good dr ian spooner joins other members of
23:55the team in the swamp to examine the area where the wooden survey stakes were found next to the newly
24:01uncovered stone structure one day ago that stake there were 100 percent not in the sand they were
24:08in that peat layer yep which is quite deep and just below the sands to be in that peat layer period
24:14under that much sand we absolutely know people were here a long long time ago so if i can leave with one
24:18suggestion what i'd like you guys to do if you can fit it in is get me a sample of the peat if i can date
24:25the peat here and it's old too then i know that the stick if it's younger was put there by people
24:32and uh if that stick dates into one of our bins of 1200 you know 1700 uh then it tells us there was
24:42activity in this area at that time which is totally new right peat is composed of decaying plant matter
24:50that forms when it is submerged under brackish water for long periods of time because the wooden
24:57stake the team found was embedded in the peat layer just beneath the stone structure if dr spooner can
25:03date the peat he may be able to determine just when the stone feature was created we've had these sort of
25:12three age sort of categories here one that's 600 to like 1200 you know that that era and then we have
25:20the 1600s you know to the 1700s yeah and then we have the more sort of i'd call post depositor kind of
25:29era so we got three kind of categories of potential human activity here and i want to see where that fits
25:39right by dating organic materials associated with the man-made structures in the swamp dr spooner has
25:47determined that the paved area near the center could be as much as 800 years old the possible portuguese
25:55stone road in the southeastern corner may be 500 years old and the so-called eye of the swamp may have
26:02been built as early as 1680 and there's been some nice big clumps of peat coming up in the digs especially
26:10over there where there is sand as well so i'll save you a big clump of peat with all the wood in it
26:18that's perfect that's what i need i think that the carbon dating of the wood in the swamp the work that
26:24was done the discoveries have been made can only lead the one conclusion that the work was long
26:31involved and purposeful to me what it says is this was a multi-generational endeavor here and there's
26:39possibly more than one treasure hidden across the island okay so i'm off the lab thanks guys we can't
26:46wait to hear your results yep thank you thanks see you later as the dick continues in the swamp
26:54we did hit the bedrock plateau hopefully it will go right down into the solution channel
26:59could be in the next run we have a core gentlemen over in the money pit area the drilling operation
27:06in borehole h9.25 has nearly reached a depth of 200 feet h9.25 still got a few things to tell us
27:16hopefully we'll find that open area that could have taken the treasure yeah given its proximity to h8
27:22there's every reason to believe that we are in the area of the original money pit remember we are
27:28in the area where something significant happened that's some very loose material right there
27:34this must be the solution channel we've lost the so-called vault in h8 where did it go and we believe
27:41it went to the solution channel that's the perfect targeted zone the hope is that there'll be something
27:48in the core a man made something adam what do you got two two twelve two twelve yeah this is promising
27:57looking stuff really gooey very gooey and loose bring her in yeah this is the loose material we're
28:04looking for right here guys there's the conditions we need right there yeah that has the ability to hide
28:09treasure it's a little messy all right now we're starting to get a look at it 198 down to 215 in
28:21front of us guys this loose material looks like it starts at the 198 mark and it goes down to
28:29or maybe a 202 would you charles 202 may have got a little bit less recovery going down through the
28:35slurry as well sure yeah well less recovery means there it was literally a void it was mostly water
28:41i guess that's the good thing now this is cakey and less likely to accept a treasure down into it this
28:46stuff up here is of course much looser and then this is this is the stuff that really should be set
28:54aside and we send some out to the lab hopefully there you go charles cbc
29:11this is the good stuff right here as we move up along this one
29:17got to find the one thing
29:24i got something right in here here this thing i'm going to pull some of that out terry
29:39oh that's okay
29:40yeah i'm getting a hit right there okay yeah right in there tough stuff to work with let me
29:55tell you over here so you don't lose it yeah yeah all right there you go yeah fresh area here's
30:00not there not there nope
30:01there we go oh there it is here it is right there
30:12here it is right there getting chirps right here it's right in there you know you get fooled
30:17sometimes by the screws in the table okay look we're gonna have to bring this over that
30:23yeah it's there it's in there put it right on the table in the money pit area the team is detecting
30:28traces of metal in a drilling core recovered from more than 200 feet deep in the solution channel
30:35nope it's in here
30:41okay they've dumped that over in a different pile so yeah
30:42that's weird
30:52oh what's that it's on here oh it's on you yeah it's on me right there
30:58i wonder if this is the same thing that we're getting before yeah you know the little flex yeah
31:13yeah this is a real conundrum here the team is frustrated to once again detect signs of metal in
31:19their drill core but then recover no objects however could these hits also mean that they are once again
31:27detecting metal flecks in the soil and are getting even closer to a long lost treasure
31:33that now lies somewhere nearby in the solution channel i know marty was really interested in
31:39this last time when this occurred so we probably should get involved here sounds good
31:47hello hey marty how are you talk to me i'm here in the money pit with charles and terry and we
31:52have another interesting four right around 198 all the way down to 208 we had some very very soupy
31:58material and we had ambiguous hits with the uh metal detector sort of scattered stuff it would it would
32:05beep and go off and seem to be detected and then we couldn't find it in the mud all right well this is
32:11right where we want it to be correct it's in the right area the right depth the right conditions you
32:17know there's no coin staring at us but who knows what to expect right i mean at least we'll get some
32:22indication we're finally on the right path so that's what he's spooner he's been on about for a
32:26long time but that's how he explains the the metals in the water the pinpointer hits the preliminary
32:33indication of metals at the base of the solution channel could be an indicator that we are in the
32:38right spot we're hoping that this is something that eroded from a treasure that's very close by
32:45maybe it's coming from the chapel vault if it's really there we're going to take all of this and
32:50set it aside marty and we're going to be sure we do a good analysis of all of it yeah but the whole
32:55thing not samples the whole thing yeah i'd like you to take that entire 10 for the core yeah entire
33:01thing then it needs to go to the lab the sediments carefully analyzed could yield bits of precious
33:09metals silver gold perhaps look this is what we're looking for something from the scientific reconnaissance
33:16data to tell us where to go to actually find the treasure we're bagging the whole thing for sure
33:21marty no question we'll keep you informed as we go talk to you soon good deal guys
33:30later that day
33:33okay mate i'm hoping we can find something to help the archaeologists understand what the heck went on
33:40in that round feature and the rectangular feature works for me after the discovery of the 18th century
33:48simulated gemstone all right let's find some artifacts cool rick and gary search through spoils that were
33:57removed from the round feature on lot five come on here's a signal
34:09here we go mate we're in business non-ferrous uh in fact just uh don't think we've got to dig very deep
34:16it's gonna be enough surface layers that sounds really good let's see what we've got here
34:33this is my favorite part
34:42oh a bit of roundness look how little that is oh yeah that's a tiny little cuff button look at how
34:50little that is mate tiny yeah but you can definitely see it's got a tiny little loop a little on the back
34:58could this small button be related to the artificial gemstones found in at near the round feature
35:04if so might it help identify one of the groups who occupied lot five before the discovery of the money
35:11pit it could be like a little kind of like a decorative button say off the lapel or something like this
35:19definitely copper alloy by the sound of it another nice little artifact cool for
35:26hammer to hopefully shine some light on i think at this point we always talk about grouping artifacts
35:32the archaeologists should group the buttons yeah and then maybe catalog them and give them to a
35:39button expert say who can say this stylistically this represents this error stylistically this
35:45represents this error it's not just a button anymore no it's a it's a piece of data it's a piece of history
35:51creation yeah it is okay i'll put it in the bag and we'll keep gridding
35:57the package as well yeah we got a good hit here rick really good
36:13I'll try pinpoint it first that sounds like a great hit that's non-ferrous
36:26mate that is not a nail
36:30I know what that is while searching spoils removed from the round feature on lot
36:58five looks like a stone no it's not a stone mate Rick and Gary have found another
37:06potentially important clue I think what we have found Rick is something really
37:11really special and unique that is a folded over coin really that's a copper
37:20coin that's been folded over well you can see the shape of it never heard such a
37:25thing I have not in North America because I have found these type of
37:31artifacts in Europe before metal detecting really yeah normally when you find
37:36something made a copper silver gold and it's completely folded over I believe
37:41this is a talisman to ward off bad things somebody would fold this piece of metal
37:49over and they would put it in the ground to ward off bad luck when would that kind
37:57of ritual be prevalent three four hundred years ago really yeah the ritual of
38:04folding coins as symbols of good luck or an appeal for God's protection dates as
38:10far back as the times of ancient Rome however this practice was prevalent
38:15throughout Europe between the 12th and 18th centuries it's more than likely
38:221700 1600s that would be the right time frame for lot five yeah yeah is it possible that this
38:32folded coin was left in the rounded feature on lot five by someone who wanted
38:37spiritual protection for themselves or perhaps for something they brought to Oak Island
38:43if so could it be related to the artifacts found here that have been linked to the religious orders of
38:50the Knights of Malta and the Knights Templar the real story here is why a folded coin what was truly happening in
39:01I'm not fine if that is a coin you just don't throw money away all right no you just don't do that you do it for a
39:08reason that's intentional right yeah you think about it back even in the 16 1700s and way beyond there those people had a
39:18different understanding of the world and so they did things like this I have always believed as have many others that the work that was done on Oak Island
39:28was meant to protect something outside of temporal wealth I think what was put here was meant to advance
39:37something an idea a belief a concept something of either significant historical value or religious value
39:45you know this island has resisted efforts to find the treasure for 230 years there's something on this island
39:53and I believe whatever was here is still here
39:56look at that well done mate this is absolutely fantastic mate a thirst for Oak Island
40:03absolutely never seen anything like it didn't know the tradition that is a clue as to what may have happened over there at least part of the story of what happened over there
40:12yep I am sure I will find a safe home oh yeah I know where this little view is going and I'm going to bypass the bag but this is going straight in the top pocket
40:24that's absolutely fantastic and we're going to show it to our favorite lady at the lab Emma and we'll find out what this is I want to know mate let's get back to the lab
40:38okay okay cool
40:41after uncovering new evidence of man-made workings in the swamp and traces of metal in the money pit
40:48and artifact surfaces that may be related to the struggles many have faced in trying to solve this mystery for more than 200 years
40:58was a treasure a profound religious value really brought to Oak Island over the course of centuries by people who are all deeply devoted to ensuring that it would never be found
41:11and could it actually be protected by supernatural forces the Laginas and their team won't stop digging until they know the truth
41:22but just what must they endure
41:25to find it
41:27next time on the curse of Oak Island
41:33oh wow what is that
41:35that's exactly like the sticks we found near the vault
41:37I truly believe there's still another vault there
41:40whoa whoa whoa
41:41there it is
41:42is that natural or is that an open cavern
41:45only a sonar could tell you that really
41:47all right well that's what we'll do
41:48hopefully we'll find the one thing
41:49cross your fingers
41:50we're in the cavity
41:51yeah you're in
41:52we'd love nothing better than to see a man-made cavern or vault
41:56we've got an opening
41:56this is not natural
