it is just a map wayne..like any other map i ever saw...it had a trail and landmarks..no silly numbers or spanish that even spaniards cant decipher ...tom k. saw it too...the man might have let tom photograph it..you'd have to check into it....the peralta stone maps are a puzzle...not a map...meant to drive people insane wayne...the only one that knows what the stones mean are the person that engraved them ..might as well go buy a rubics cube..at least it can be solved...answer this..if those stones have any ties to the church.. then why hasn't the church put a claim on them for religious artifacts?...if they really wanted them they could very easily get them
I don't know about modern Spaniards, but I've shown photos of the H/P to several Spanish speakers at work. One from the Phillipines, and five or six from Mexico and Guatemala. Not one of them has had any trouble reading the words and knowing what each sentence means. In fact, it was one of them who got me started on this particular journey in 2010 . In his opinion, the word "LUGARES" applied to somewhere you would "briefly halt....like a "bus" at a bus stop would". To me that fits very well with the entire sentence above that word.....and the trail itself.
Has the church ever admitted to hoarding and hiding any kind of treasure from the authorities ?
Or in mining the southwest, with or without outside labor ?
Wouldn't claiming them as religious artifacts, especially the SC's, CP, and LH, which DO mention gold and church (IGLESIA) treasure, put them in the historical hotseat ?
From where I stand now, it appears more likely that all of this is the result of an effort in intelligence gathering which began with a few Franciscan researcher-writers mid-late 1500's that was somehow taken over and continued by the Jesuits in the late 1600's . Also that both orders knew what they were looking for, but were unable to find it ....the Franciscans because they had little to go on prior to the Jesuits taking over that part of the new lands, and the Jesuits because despite having additional info and bases relatively nearby were probably short of a critical piece/key, had lost the native co-operation they needed after the Pima revolt, and/or they were expelled in 1776 . The final answer to these questions can only be answered on site, and probably by the Latin Heart......if at all.
