| Seldom: Hmmm I'm rather more than bit concerned about your take on "treasure marks being none existent". If you feel that is truly so, and that no fool would place signs around a buried treasure area, please give us your take on: Why treasure maps exist and; what term would you give the 'marks' used in the maps, guiding one to so called "treasure' or hidden cashes? | |

First why be concerned about what I think or post? I have answered all your questions a dozen time in the last few years, but you want the whole story OK. First a little back ground.
I have been THing for 40 years and make my living doing it and in 40 years I have never seen a recovery made using so called signs markers or maps. I have forgot more about treasure then most folks will ever know
Signs and maps don't exist, us some common sense and logic Who would bury a load of gold or silver then leave a trail leading back to it. Who would draw a map showing the location of their cache? NOBODY that's who.
there is a 'code' that exists out there and it does interpret into treasure finds.
That is the biggest load of nonsense I have ever heard, if someone did use signs to mark a cache they would not use an universal mark they would use a mark that meant something only to them and their family.
A few months back I was in the Big Bend area of Texas that is full of thing that the armchair treasure hunter would call signs rocks that look like faces or bears or what ever the imagination will allow. We kept seeing 2-3 or 4 inverted crosses carved into rocks. I knew they were not there 15 years ago even tho they look old after some research and a long talk with a border agent it came to light that they are trail markers used by coyotes and drug smugglers he told us that the signs were all along the Texas New Mexico and Arizona borders. Its only a matter of time before pictures start showing up here as signs to Spanish treasure.
So, do you think the division for "Treasure marks and signs" should be removed from this forum or, just those that agree they exist?
First off its none of you concern what I think, but no I don't think it needs to be removed I do think it needs to be used to post signs and marks of which none have ever been posted. So far all we have are pictures of natural rock formations or doodling done by a bored cowboy a 100 years ago.
I think you should reflect on what you've written and offer up an apology on being narrow minded. You're bad for business and, pushing customers away from thunting isn't going to gain you any banners.
I care less what you think. As for narrow minded I and most others here are very open mined but we need proof not armchair opinions gathered from google earth and a bunch of pictures. Show me one treasure map that was used to find treasure. Show me one map that was not proved to be a fake over time. Show me one sign that can't be explained as a natural mark left by nature. You can't because they don't exist. Sorry
Now I have answered your question unless you can provide the proof I asked for this conversation is over. DO NOT TURN THIS THREAD INTO PISSING MATCH.
