Treasure Maps
Note: Treasure maps and purported treasure maps are often notoriously ambiguous in
their dating. For example, the famous Peralta-Fish Map is commonly dated to 1848; however,
there are no known documentation of its existence before the 1930s at the earliest, and
perhaps not until as late as the 1950s. The dates given below should all be considered tenuous.
