00:10you've discovered something that could be one of the most important things I've ever seen
00:14the truth about the Knights Templar is about to bubble over my family might fit into one
00:20Templar mystery that stretches all the way to America this motivates me even more to want to
00:25get to the truth if this is a pregnant Mary Magdalene I want to know who is that well I
00:32don't believe
00:33that's the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus I think that's Mary Magdalene and Jesus's child
00:57so
01:14Oh, my God.
01:48Oh, my God.
02:10The history that we were all taught growing up is wrong.
02:14My name is Scott Wolter, and I'm a forensic geologist.
02:18There's a hidden history in this country that nobody knows about.
02:21There are pyramids here, chambers, tombs, descriptions.
02:26They're all over this country.
02:28We're going to investigate these artifacts and sites, and we're going to get to the truth.
02:33Sometimes history isn't what we've been told.
02:46For nearly a decade, I've been on a mission to prove the Knights Templar came to America
02:51to protect an explosive secret after they were driven from Europe by those who feared their power.
02:59I think that secret is represented by a symbol, the hooked X, that I've authenticated on five runestones here in
03:07the U.S.
03:09Recently, a tipster told me to come check out a new hooked X in Pennsylvania that I'd never heard of
03:16before.
03:19Frustratingly, it turned out to be a hoax.
03:22I've been able to conclude the others are authentic using forensic geology, and I'm always on the lookout for more.
03:32The hooked X is important because it represents a secret I think the Templars were trying to protect,
03:39and that some were even killed on Friday the 13th, 1307,
03:43when the Catholic Church, who once endorsed them, suddenly felt they were a threat.
03:51That secret?
03:52I think it's that Jesus and Mary Magdalene had a child, that Jesus had a bloodline.
03:59I think the Templars brought that secret and the bloodline itself to America.
04:15Now, I'm in France with my friend Steve, who's researching his family connection to the Templars
04:20and with Alan Butler, a Templar historian.
04:26We're looking for more evidence to support my hypothesis
04:29and to investigate another symbol I think figures into this mystery.
04:35A hand symbol in the shape of an M that I believe stands for Mary Magdalene herself,
04:41whom they held in the highest regard.
04:44It's on nearly every statue and in every painting in this church.
04:49I know the M is important, and I think it's another link between the Templars and America.
04:58You know, guys, do you remember we were talking about the put-down of the Knights Templar
05:01on Friday the 13th?
05:04If A is 1, B is 2, C is 3, what number is M?
05:1113.
05:1213.
05:13Do you think there's a coincidence there that they were put down on Friday the 13th?
05:18There's more.
05:19How many original colonies did we have in the United States?
05:2213.
05:2313.
05:24How many red and white stripes do we have on our flag?
05:2713.
05:29Let me show you something else.
05:32You ever look carefully on the back of a $1 bill?
05:37Look here.
05:39If you count the number of stones levels in the pyramid, 13.
05:45You count the number of stars above the eagle's head, 13.
05:4913 stripes, 13 arrows, 13 leaves, 13 letters in E pleribus unum.
05:56It's all over the back of the dollar bill.
05:59Why is the question?
06:00Because of this, because of Mary Magdalene and Jesus and their marriage, this sacred bloodline
06:06story has been kept alive through symbolism, starting with the Templars weaving all the
06:12way into the Freemasons.
06:13It's all over our country, and it's all over here in France.
06:17But there's something else.
06:19Look over there.
06:20What do you see?
06:21An eagle.
06:22An eagle, just like the back of the dollar bill.
06:27Look at the date.
06:291776.
06:301776.
06:31That's the date of the Declaration of Independence.
06:34Here in a Templar church, there's another tie with the Freemasons in the United States.
06:42Last year, I was in D.C. researching our capital's connection to the Freemasons.
06:48I learned a lot about its symbolic layout, one that George Washington, who was a Mason himself,
06:55had a hand in.
06:55While I was there, I noticed a statue of Franklin Delano Roosevelt making what I think is the
07:02M sign.
07:04Like George Washington, he was a Mason, too.
07:06A wealth of research, not just my own, suggests the Masons and Templars were brothers across
07:14time, and that they shared secrets and symbols.
07:18Symbols like the M and the hooked X.
07:23So what I think is going on here, and no question in my mind, is that the secret story about
07:29the
07:29bloodline marriage between Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and their child went underground when the Templars
07:36were put down in 1307, and lived under the rose, sub-rosa, in secret, through signs and symbols like the
07:44M sign, all the way up through to today.
07:50Guys, the place I want to go next is I want to go to Paris, and I want to see
07:54where the final Grand Master of the Knights Templar,
07:56Jacques de Molay, was burned at the stake.
07:59Now, I don't think that's an accident that Jacques de Molay was arrested on Friday the 13th.
08:04I think that your church knew all about this whole 13 symbolism for Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
08:11I think they picked that date on purpose as a way of sending a message to the Templars and the
08:15bloodline families,
08:16we're not putting up with this stuff.
08:32In a matter of about 175 years, the Templars went from being a rugged order of knights
08:38to arguably the most powerful economic and political force in Europe at the time.
08:45The Pope and the French king, Philip the Fair, became intimidated by the Templars,
08:49and together, they put an end to the knights in 1307.
08:59Or did they?
09:01People say the Grand Master of the Order, Jacques de Molay, refused to reveal their secrets,
09:06even after he was tricked into coming to Paris to meet with the Pope.
09:12He was lured into a trap where he was arrested, charged with heresy, and burned to death.
09:35Well, guys, this is the spot.
09:42At this place, Jacques de Molay, last Grand Master of the Order of the Temple,
09:47was burned 18th of March, 1314.
09:58The idea of him being burned at the stake is a bit of a misnomer.
10:01However, the French king hated him so much that he actually had him spit-roasted
10:07over an extremely hot charcoal fire to prolong the agony.
10:12He may have been hours dying.
10:14Oh, God, horrible.
10:17Over the seven years of his captivity, he was tortured repeatedly.
10:29They slow-roasted his feet to the point where his toe bones literally fell out.
10:38And on the day of his execution here, he gathered up those toe bones and carried them here in a
10:44small box.
10:45It was gruesome.
10:45Can you imagine?
10:50You know, one of the things that I heard was the king of France was denied entry into the Knights
10:55Templar,
10:55and that was part of his hatred for them.
10:57Absolutely.
10:59And, of course, then there's the matter of money.
11:02The French crown, like most of the crowns of Europe, owed the Templars an absolute fortune.
11:07Of course, if you get rid of the people you owe the money to, you get rid of the debt.
11:12That's right.
11:13That's right.
11:13So you know about the alleged proclamation that Jacques de Molay made the day he died?
11:18He said, within a year of this day, I will stand before St. Peter with the king of France and
11:26the Pope.
11:26And, of course, within the year, they both died.
11:29Do you think it was divine intervention that brought those two down, or do you think the Templars took them
11:34out?
11:35Oh, I think the Templars did for them.
11:37I do, too.
11:38Murdered?
11:38Yeah, I think so.
11:40And let's not forget, guys, the Templars at this point had become so powerful that the church was getting worried.
11:46I think that the church was worried that the bloodline secrets were going to come out, and it was time
11:51to move against them before that happens.
11:53Even though Jacques de Molay was burned here in 1314, and many people think that the Templars came to an
12:00end at that time, that was hardly the case.
12:03There were many people and many groups that embraced the same ideology as the Templars.
12:07They simply went underground and continued on.
12:14You know, guys, I've got some pictures I want to show you.
12:16Should we duck in here real quick?
12:18Sure.
12:24Do you guys recognize these three ships?
12:27Yeah.
12:28I recognize the cross.
12:30This is the Nina the Pinta the Santa Maria.
12:34This is Columbus's famous voyage to the New World, right?
12:37And he's got the Knights Templar Cross flying on the sails of all three ships.
12:44My second photo here, this is the mysterious sigla that Columbus began to use after he came back from the
12:51New World that first time.
12:52What do you see, Alan?
12:54I would say that's a hooked X.
12:57That is a hooked X, which is a symbol of the bloodline.
13:01Now, I've got one more for you.
13:05Take a look at that.
13:07Oh, my God.
13:07Oh, wow.
13:09What do you see?
13:11The M.
13:12The M sign.
13:13Now, if that isn't absolute proof that he was part of the squad and supporter of the bloodline families and
13:21a member of the Knights Templar, I don't know what is.
13:51Take a look at that.
13:52Oh, wow.
13:55The M sign.
13:57Yep.
13:58Now, if that doesn't prove that Columbus was connected to the Templars and the Templars were connected to America, I
14:04don't know what does.
14:05This is Columbus' three ships flying the Knights of Christ cross.
14:11The Knights of Christ was the name the Knights Templar in Portugal changed their name to after the put-down.
14:16But they basically continued on as usual.
14:19Now, the main seat of the Knights Templar order in Portugal was Tomar.
14:23And that's a place that I'm going to go visit.
14:25You really ought to go there.
14:26I can't go with you, but go and see.
14:29It's fantastic.
14:30But how about you?
14:31Would you like to join me?
14:32Oh, I'd love to.
14:35Before heading to Portugal in search of more connections between the Templars and America, Steve and I had one more
14:41place to check out.
14:43A church connected to his family and connected to the Templars.
14:49The church is called St. Martin de Champs.
14:52I'm hoping it has more symbols to help validate my theory.
14:57Allegedly, underneath the church, which today is a museum, is a burial chamber of the Merovingians, a dynastic family said
15:05by some to be the physical carriers of Jesus' bloodline.
15:28So, Steve, tell me again, why is it that you're so excited about this church?
15:33The real reason it's important to me personally is it's direct evidence that my family is connected to the Templars,
15:39the Knights Templar.
15:40Wait a minute. You're saying now that this is the proof?
15:43Yes.
15:43That your family is connected to the Knights Templar?
15:46Absolutely.
15:46You're the guy that for all those years said there was no connection, there was no evidence.
15:50Now there's evidence.
15:51This is your evidence?
15:51Yes. Now there's evidence.
15:52So what are we going to see here?
15:54St. Martin de Champs was built in 1100. You can see it from here.
15:58Yeah.
15:59What you can see is the ground right below that part of the church is the Merovingian burial vault, a
16:04necropolis from 700 AD.
16:06So the Merovingians, remember, this is the vine of Mary, the royal dynastic families of France that had all this
16:14power and people are pretty certain carry the bloodline.
16:18Right. The Merovingian kings.
16:20What?
16:24That's the Statue of Liberty. What the hell is that doing here?
16:28Well, I guess it's Bartoli, the guy who designed the Statue of Liberty, and he's from France.
16:33But what is it doing here at this church, your church, the one you wanted me to see?
16:39That's certainly odd to find the Statue of Liberty feet from a Merovingian burial vault.
16:44Well, I'm not really sure what's going on here, but I can tell you this.
16:47There's a reason that that thing is here at this church.
16:50I think you're right.
16:51We just have to figure it out.
16:57I think I know what it could be.
17:00Now, obviously, there's a lot of symbolism in the Statue of Liberty, right?
17:04Yeah.
17:04We have the chain, the broken chains, which is freedom from oppression of the Roman church and the monarchies of
17:10Europe.
17:11We have the light of liberty, which is always seeking light, seeking knowledge.
17:16We've got the seven points on the crown, which represents education and the seven classic arts and sciences.
17:22I didn't know that.
17:23And, of course, we have the tablet.
17:28When I was in New York, I took a helicopter and I flew around the Statue of Liberty because I
17:33wanted to look very closely at that tablet.
17:35You see those notches?
17:37Yeah, the keystone, right?
17:38That's symbolic of the Mark Master Mason's keystone, the very same notch keystone that I saw in the Newport Tower
17:45that I've been saying forever was built by the Templars,
17:48and it's connected directly to the Freemasons.
17:51There's the connection there.
17:53And we see one more thing.
17:55What is it?
17:57I don't know.
17:59The M sign.
18:00She's holding the tablet.
18:01Oh, my God.
18:02Making the M sign, which ties it all back to the bloodline families.
18:08That's so subtle.
18:09It's right there.
18:10And you don't notice it.
18:11Hidden in plain sight.
18:11You don't notice it.
18:13If you stop and think about it, the Templars are connected to the Freemasons.
18:17The Freemasons are connected to the United States.
18:20They founded the United States.
18:21What's the most iconic symbol of America?
18:25Of course, the Statue of Liberty.
18:26The Statue of Liberty in New York.
18:28And so maybe because we see the Statue of Liberty here that it ties to the Merovingians that are right
18:34here under this church.
18:35And what that tells me is it's all connected to the bloodline.
18:45The Statue of Liberty.
18:56I'll see you next time.
19:10The Statue of Liberty.
19:13We weren't allowed to go underneath St. Martin-de-Champs, no surprise to me.
19:19If there were ever symbols or secrets connected to the Merovingian family or Jesus' bloodline
19:24down there, I'm sure the church got rid of them long ago.
19:30But finding a replica of the Statue of Liberty at a church that sits atop the rumored descendants
19:36of Jesus and Mary was like finding the eagle with 1776 on it at a church of the Templar
19:43Commandery.
19:44It can't be a coincidence.
19:48There's no denying that some of America's most sacred symbols are found in places sacred
19:53to the Templars and those who shared their ideals.
19:58And, it makes me wonder what we'll find in Tomar, the biggest Templar stronghold in Portugal.
20:28Well, Steve, if we're going to find more symbols and signs dealing with the Knights Templar,
20:34I mean, if they're not here in Tomar, I don't know where else to look.
20:37Yeah, this is from what I've heard, one of the most important Templar sites in all of
20:41Europe.
20:41Tomar, the biggest Templar stronghold in Portugal, is a town founded by the Templar Grandmaster,
20:47Galdim de Pais, in the 12th century.
20:52Walking around here, it feels very old world.
20:56Like a place steeped in secrets and tradition.
21:00And there's Templar references everywhere.
21:03In shops, on sidewalks, there's even a hotel named after them.
21:09I have to think there are hidden symbols here, somewhere in the deepest reaches of the city,
21:14that will prove that the Knights Templar were protecting the secret of Jesus' bloodline,
21:19and that they took that secret all the way to America.
21:33Look at the tower, the eight-sided tower.
21:36Where have we seen that before?
21:37We've seen that a lot on this trip.
21:38We saw it at St. Martin de Champ.
21:40Yep.
21:41Of course, it goes back to the Newport Tower in Rhode Island.
21:44The Newport Tower exactly has eight points.
21:47That's cool.
21:47Now, if you take a look at the Templar Cross, you see how it flares at the end and there's
21:53two points?
21:54Yeah.
21:55If you take the Templar Cross and you put it inside the tower, those eight points on the
22:01cross will touch the eight columns inside the tower.
22:08Look at that clock.
22:09I've been staring at that thing, and I think I know what I'm seeing.
22:12If you look in the upper left, that's a woman.
22:16And in the upper right, that's got to be Jesus, Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
22:21And look below them, bones, including the skull and crossbones below Jesus and the bones
22:28of Mary below.
22:30You know, I've seen that symbol on the right all over Scotland on Templar burial sites.
22:34The skull and crossbone, the Jolly Roger, which is a symbol of the pirates, which were
22:39the fugitive Templars.
22:41While the origins of the Jolly Roger had been debated, there's no question the Templars
22:47were among the first to fly the skull and crossbones flag.
22:50The question is, why?
22:54I think the skull and crossbones could represent the bones of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, bones
23:00the Templars may have had in their possession.
23:06The Jolly Roger, could that represent their bones that the Templars have?
23:14During the first crusade, the Templars went to Jerusalem.
23:18I think they took those bones as insurance against the church.
23:22Don't mess with us.
23:24Because we've got something very important.
23:26That's very cool.
23:27You know, what else is interesting is that symbol over there, the Templar cross above the globe.
23:31That, I believe, is the one that the Portuguese think is the most perfect symbol of Templarism
23:36to them.
23:36Yeah.
23:37To the Portuguese.
23:38Yeah.
23:39Well, think about it for a second, Steve.
23:41Many of the great explorers launched their voyages from right here in Portugal out into
23:46the world.
23:47Right?
23:48The Templars were the best explorers, and they were exploring the world.
23:53And if they explored the world, they certainly went to America.
24:02What started for me 15 years ago as an investigation into a mysterious rune stone in Minnesota brought
24:09me across the Atlantic looking for clues to who might have carved it.
24:13That's when I learned the hooked X, a symbol on the stone, was directly connected to the
24:19Knights Templar.
24:21Since then, I've learned a lot more about what I think that symbol means.
24:26That it's a secret symbol representing Jesus' bloodline.
24:31The revelation that Jesus could have had descendants is explosive, and it's a theory that some people
24:37just won't accept.
24:43I recently looked at a hooked X carving in the Pennsylvania woods that was a hopes.
24:49Something, I think, was created by someone afraid that what I'm uncovering is true.
24:55Someone who wanted to embarrass me if I said it was real.
25:00But forensic geology doesn't lie.
25:03And now, I'm in Portugal to find even more evidence to convince the skeptics.
25:08So far in European churches, I've only seen a hooked X in one that's connected to the Templars.
25:15Roslyn Chapel in Scotland.
25:17The church made famous by the Da Vinci Code.
25:20But I never give up hope I'll find another.
25:23And since Tomar is a city built by the Templars, this would be the place.
25:53So this is the church that Guglielm de Pius built for the Templars to worship in, right?
25:58Santa Maria de Olivao.
26:00Santa Maria de Olivao.
26:01Santa Maria de Olivao.
26:13Valdine de Pius.
26:16This must be where he's buried.
26:21Hey, look at the date.
26:25October 13th, 1895.
26:27And I'd be willing to bet that was a Friday that year.
26:32October 13th, probably on a Friday, 1895.
26:35Must have been when that plaque was dedicated in honor of when the Knights Templar order was put down by
26:40the King of France.
26:46And that list shows 22 grandmasters of the Portuguese Knights Templar that I heard were actually buried here.
26:51In this church.
26:52On this site.
26:53And I think that's what these markers are.
26:55Let's go take a look around, see if we can find them.
27:07Grave slab there, grave slab there.
27:09They're all over the floor.
27:10Look at this one.
27:11That one's beautiful.
27:15Scott, the five-pointed star.
27:18The pentagram, right?
27:20To the Templars, the pentagram was sacred.
27:23Because what that pentagram represents, the five-pointed star, it was the physical manifestation of the goddess in the heavens,
27:32the planet Venus.
27:33So when you draw the five-pointed star, what you're actually doing is tracing the movement of Venus in the
27:40heavens.
27:43And if you look inside the middle of that pentagram, you see the Pentagon, just like in America, in Washington,
27:54D.C.
27:54The Pentagon, I don't think it's an accident that it has five sides in that same shape.
27:59It, too, is symbolic of the goddess of Mary Magdalene.
28:04And who was the person that designed that and made sure it was in the exact spot that he wanted?
28:09Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
28:11And he was a Mason.
28:13To the Templars, I think the five-pointed star was the most sacred symbol of all to them.
28:18Even more important than the hooked X, symbolic of the bloodline.
28:22Even more important than the M sign we've seen all over Europe.
28:30.
28:30.
28:43Scott, what do you think's up with this tower?
28:45.
28:46.
28:46I don't know.
28:48Excuse me, foulish English?
28:50Yes, I can speak English.
28:52Oh, great.
28:52Do you know anything about this tower?
28:55Supposedly, there's a tunnel underneath that goes to the
28:59castle on the hill, the Templar castle.
29:01Really?
29:02Yes.
29:02How about the church?
29:03Any interesting things you know about it?
29:05The only thing I know is that this star and this rose are
29:10here on the church and in the castle as well.
29:14You know, I didn't notice when we first walked in because
29:17it's so deteriorated, but outside the five-pointed star is a
29:21five-pedaled rose.
29:24And the number eight is important.
29:27There are eight columns, eight steps inside, but that's the
29:32only thing I know.
29:33Hey, listen, thank you very much.
29:34Thank you very much.
29:35Thanks for your help.
29:36Bye.
29:36We should go back.
29:37We got to go back.
29:42Let's count these steps.
29:45One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
29:50Eight.
29:53Look at the columns.
29:55One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
29:59Very cool.
30:01Hey, you know what?
30:02There's eight windows across the top.
30:05Right above the columns and at the same level as the five-pointed
30:08star.
30:10Is that cool or what?
30:13The number eight is important because it's the number of times
30:16that Venus, which is a symbol for Mary Magdalene in the heavens,
30:19goes around the sun.
30:21The question is, is it the only symbol here?
30:50Scott, I think you need to come over here.
31:20Oh, my God.
31:22Oh, my God.
31:22Oh, my God.
31:22Scott, I think you need to come over here right now.
31:25Hey, Steve, are you seeing Mason's marks?
31:28You need to come over here right now.
31:35You know, we've seen a lot of symbols on this trip.
31:38Yeah?
31:38We have yet to see that one.
31:41What?
31:43It's a hooked X.
31:46You've got to be kidding me.
31:48That's a hooked X.
31:49What the hell?
31:53What the hell?
31:56Shut up.
32:02And it's in this church.
32:08A hooked X in this church.
32:12I mean, we have seen all the symbolism.
32:14That's the one thing we haven't seen, is my hooked X, and there it is.
32:20In one of the most important Templar cities in Europe, with all the symbolism that we have been talking about
32:27that connects the whole thread together, what was the one thing that was missing?
32:30The hooked X?
32:31The symbol of the bloodline families that we find in America, and we find it here.
32:37This is Latin, I believe.
32:40That's not a Latin character.
32:43No.
32:44Well...
32:45It's out of place.
32:45Yes.
32:46It's a number.
32:47It's a Roman character.
32:49Mm-hmm.
32:49It's a Roman number.
32:51It says 10th, but it's got a hook on it, because it has dual meaning.
32:55It has a practical function, but it's also symbolic of the bloodline families.
33:00Because if it's used as a letter, if it's used as a number, or if it stands all by itself,
33:07it symbolizes the bloodline.
33:16What is the importance of this here?
33:20I mean, I'm still trying to get my head around it, but the importance of this is incredible.
33:26I can't believe it.
33:28I just can't believe it.
33:29You know what?
33:31This is no Da Vinci Code.
33:34This is real life.
33:35It's over here, in Portugal, and it's in America.
33:39This whole thing started with the Kensington runestone and the hooked X, and it's all brought
33:46me here, to this church, where everything, all the symbolism, and all the factual evidence
33:54is woven together, and it can't be taken apart.
33:59And the hooked X is right there.
34:03I'm speechless.
34:05This is amazing.
34:06This is amazing.
34:06I mean, the only time, I will say this, the only time that we see the hooked X is it's
34:10used by either the Knights Templar order in medieval times or by Freemasons.
34:17William de Pace built this church.
34:19He knew this was here.
34:21And he was Grand Master.
34:22And since Portugal was the launching point for all these explorations, these voyages of exploration
34:29to lands unknown, because of the hooked X being found in America, we know at least one place
34:37that they went, don't we?
34:38Yeah.
34:40Yeah.
34:41The United States of America.
34:42Yeah.
34:45What does finding the hooked X here mean to you?
34:48Well, the hooked X is what started me on this whole journey.
34:51It was critical.
34:53Everybody said it never existed.
34:55Well, guess what?
34:57It did exist.
34:58It's a symbol of the bloodline families.
35:02Right here in this church, this Templar church, this little symbol on this column here, it's
35:09validation of everything I've done.
35:11And it also proves to me with the Masonic connections that it was the Freemasons who founded our country
35:19using the idealism and the symbolism represented by the hooked X.
35:27We've gone to a new country.
35:28We found it again.
35:30I would venture to say we're not done finding the hooked X symbol.
35:34Well, if there's one thing that I've learned, you're not going to find anything unless you
35:39get off your butt and look.
35:42And we came here and found it.
35:46Nice going, brother.
35:51Nicely done.
36:05Everything I saw in France and Portugal tells me that what I've been trying to prove for
36:10almost a decade is rooted in something real, that the Templars came to America to protect
36:16the secret of Jesus's bloodline.
36:20I've seen the symbols and signs of the Templars that I think represent that secret in Europe.
36:26And they're consistent with the symbols and signs I've seen in America.
36:31the M's on the statues and in portraits, the hooked X representing Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and their
36:41child found on pillars and runestones.
36:44They're clues that can't be ignored.
36:47My research is controversial, but I've never given up.
36:51And now I believe it's paying off.
37:10People are paying attention.
37:12And one man in Massachusetts just emailed me about his discovery of a new hooked X on an
37:18artifact I've seen before, but that he says I need to see again.
37:23It's called the Westford Knight.
37:26Many people believe it depicts a Templar Knight holding a sword.
37:32Over the years, it's become very difficult to see because it's exposed to the elements in one of the harshest
37:39climates in the country.
37:42Some believe the knight is Prince Henry Sinclair, a distant relative of Steve Sinclair, who was just with me in
37:49France.
37:50As the story goes, Prince Henry made a voyage to the New World in the 14th century with the Templars
37:56treasure and secrets in tow.
38:00I just hope the carving I'm going to see isn't a fake, like the one I examined in Pennsylvania before
38:07I went to France.
38:17Hey, Dave.
38:19Hey, nice to meet you, Scott.
38:20You're the guy that emailed me, right?
38:21I am.
38:23Well, I'm excited that you found this symbol.
38:25I can't wait to see it, but I got to hear the story.
38:29My understanding is the Westford Knight Committee was trying to preserve this site.
38:34And what was it that made you notice this new thing in the first place?
38:38Well, Shane, my colleague, and I had come to the site to start power washing and start preserving it.
38:45He said, hey, take a look at this.
38:47So I looked at it.
38:48We wiped it a little more, dried it a little bit.
38:51And I said, wow, what is that?
38:54And Shane said, hey, I know what that is.
38:57That's a really important symbol.
38:58I don't think anyone had ever seen it at this site before.
39:01I can vouch for that.
39:03I've been here about a half dozen times.
39:05Yeah.
39:06I thought, wow, this is something that's pretty significant, not only to the committee, but
39:09probably to you, Scott.
39:11Well, based on what I understand so far, you're absolutely right.
39:14So where is this thing?
39:17I'm ready to take a look at it.
39:18All right.
39:18Let me show you.
39:22Let's get in there.
39:24All right.
39:26So where is it?
39:27So you're familiar with the carving already.
39:28But if you just follow the blade, it's right here.
39:36Well, I see something here.
39:41If there is an authentic hookdex on this stone, meaning one that was carved at the time I believe
39:47Templars were making voyages to America, then I can add it to the list of hookdex runestones
39:53in the United States that I believe are legit.
39:57So far, there's the Kensington runestone in Minnesota, dated to 1362.
40:03Then there are the Spirit Pond runestones in Maine and the Narragansett runestone in Rhode
40:09Island.
40:10But what I want to know is can we now add the Westford Knight to the list?
40:22Oh, I see.
40:26So I got two dots right here.
40:28We got a line coming here, a line here, and a hook right there.
40:35My first impression, it's not modern.
40:38No way.
40:40I mean, if you look at these carvings here, we know these are man-made.
40:44These have been weathering for a long time.
40:49So do you know what this means?
40:51No.
40:53Based on my initial impression, you've got a hookdex here.
40:57This could have been made by the Knights Templar.
41:00I mean, this is incredible.
41:03I'm speechless.
41:14Because I was almost the victim of a hoax in Pennsylvania involving a hooked X, I went
41:20on to study the Westford carving in more detail.
41:23Studying the carving using a new technique called Reflective Transformation Imaging left
41:30no question in my mind.
41:32It's legit.
41:34I've been searching for the truth about our past for years.
41:39Not just whether the Templars voyage to America, but whether people from all over the world made
41:44it here centuries ago, leaving clues behind.
41:53Rock walls, rock carvings, hidden artifacts, and newly discovered documents all tell me there's
42:01a lot we don't know about our past.
42:05When I look at everywhere I've been and think about everything I've seen, I know it's more
42:12than a coincidence that links together some of the sights, symbols, and signs I've found.
42:20We may not know everything about how they connect, but one day, we will.
42:31If you have a mysterious artifact or sight I need to see, I want to know about it.
