it's very puzzling. HOW some one pre-1800 built this is unknown. WHY is unknown - you certainly wouldn't go through this much effort for a prank.

I'm not really expecting an answer to any of it, and certainly not holding my breath for treasure.

no they actually purchased the controlling interest of the company that owns the land.

its been quite the ordeal by the sounds of it.

I sure hope those guys find it... they certainly wouldnt be allowed, but I wish they could get permission to bring in the biggest excavators with the longest booms and dippers known and just dig the hell outta the area until they get down to whatever it is.

What confounds me, is how the ancient people, whoever they may have been, engineered these extremely intricate water traps fed by the sea with ancient technology, or even got down that deep in the first place.

agreed this is some awesome shit.


hoping like hell they figure it out

or dive like that crazy old man who dug the other tunnel did...

Yeah, but suppose you have to dig further. Digging underwater doesn't work so well.

Hell, if all they need is someone crazy sign me up. I'd gladly die for a share of the spoils.

Man... to HELL with that diving business, that old man was NUTS.

It seems like if they just did another big dye release and had divers stationed at the various places offshore, they could find the inlets and plug them up.

Yep...that's what I said earlier.

Shut off the water.

My solution is to use the corrugated steel flood walls they used to shore up New Orleans.

They stand them up straight, have a vibrating attachment for a backhoe, or a cool vertical ranking rig, and drive them well into the ground.

Do that close to the shore, where the flood shaft would be at its shallowest depths. Boom. Pump out the shaft. Profit.

the old man was obsessed, ROFL. even admitted it himself.

and admitting it is the first step.

How do you find the inlets for the water though? This isn't a bucket you can hold up to find the hole.
