tayopa, legend or reality ...?

[Gossamer]

And here are the stories on the Mayan Temple with the mica. The story of the plates of mica and how it go there, is one of my pet legend to figure out.

Gossamer,

Where can I go look at the talk about Vikings?
thank you

Considering your questions and comments about the mica found in the floor of the Mica Temple, the "Viking" segue is an amazing coincidence. Are you aware of the Viking name connection to the mica you were discussing?

My guess is that the mica originally was brought into Mesoamerica by the Olmec's, rather than the Maya. When you consider their engineering abilities and the distances they moved objects that weighed twenty tons or more, that seems like a reasonable assumption. The mica you are talking about was supposedly moved 2000 miles from Brazil to Teotihuacan..

The Olmec's considered mica a sign of wealth. It was treasured by many Native American Cultures. Mirrors made from mica were especially prized and magical properties were attributed to the mineral. It could be that the belief in those magical properties was the impetus for moving the sheets of mica so far, and burying them in the floor of the Mica Temple. Their presence in the Pyramid of the Sun could be for those same magical reasons.

Since you asked for opinions, I was interested enough in the topic to offer mine. They are no better than anyone else's, but few opinions are being offered here, or in the Archaeological Community. Graham Hancock
(no archaeologist) wrote a short passage on page's 174 & 175 in "Fingerprints Of The Gods".

No doubt much of what is being posted here, belongs in another topic, but.......

i should have left these .pictures and yes this is a large bill or also called a horse blanket ...

 

[Springfield]

The only people who know what I've found are myself and my wife - Just because I'll be retiring at age 49 to a life of luxury when I've never made over $50K per year doesn't mean anything - or does it

Hopefully a statement in jest. Otherwise, you've just established yourself as a blip on the radar.

Ed: you mentioned the copper property. Is it at the junction of the rios Chinapas, Fuerte and Septentrion - southern Chihuahua, Sonora, and northern Durango and Sinaloa?? I.E. Palo Dulce on the rail road?

You also posted --->

It may be possible you might want to spend some time in Mazatlan..
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yer kidding no? why would a tired, frozen, gambasino, cowboy / writer from Dakota want to lounge in the warm sand ogling females at Mazatlan when he could be snow bound in a lonely cabin writing about TAYOPA?

Yer weird ED ~

An old swabbie making a silly remark like this is weird, unrealistic, N E V E R !

I would even drink Djucy';s coffee, but I am wary of ORO"S egg shell, crunchy bug stuff.

p.s. I must admit that on many of my exploration trips I carried only tea simply because of the weight & , availability etc problems. It is almost mandatory to share your coffee with whomever you meet on the trail in the back country, I almost never ran out since most do not like tea, yet I met the social amenities. snicker snicker.

stay safe stay free

Yah, that's what I thought

have you ever found anyting?

Let me show you how easy this is - took me all of 5 minutes and I don't have photoshop on this computer...

The best documented and most searched-for Wisconsin outlaw cache is the suit- case containing $200,000 in currency that John Dillinger buried in the woods behind the Little Bohemia Lodge on Star Lake in 1934. When Federal agents learned that Dillinger and his gang had taken over the Little Bohemia, they mobilized a strike force which quickly closed off three sides of the Lodge. The lakeside, however, was left unguarded. Worse yet, the jumpy G-men mistook Eugene Boisoneau and John Hoffman, two workers from a nearby CCC camp, for members of the gang and opened fire on them as they left the Lodge. Boisoneau was killed, Hoffman was badly wounded, and the outlaws were alerted to the impending ambush.

Dillinger slipped out the back window and hid the suitcase in the woods. In the ensuing confusion the gang split up and escaped along the lake shore, killing a Federal agent in the process. Dillinger himself was gunned down in Chicago, taking the secret of the location of the suitcase full of swag to his grave.

I grew up in Wisconsin and spent much of my life around the Little Bohemia Lodge - I found a suitcase one day full of these...

What's the matter? Isn't this proof enough??

Just in case anyone seriously thought I found Dillinger's long lost loot from the Little Bohemia Lodge in northern Wisconsin, my whole point in putting the above post together was to give BB an indication of how simple it is for anyone to toss together a story, a couple photos of 1914 $5 bills and make grand claims without ever having to provide evidence. Would I have honestly expected anyone to believe my claim with just the little bit that I posted - not a chance, which is exactly what I was trying to get across to BB - that just posting a few photos and theories isn't enough to convince anyone of anything and it's just silly to be offended if someone questions you.

Janiece - I think the other folks here have known me long enough to assume I was kidding, but I didn't want you thinking I was trying to pull a fast one or being a jerk or anything. I did read up on the Dillinger story when I was younger and did actually even look for it a few times - from what I could find out, odds are the "buried suitcase of loot" probably never happened, and even if it did, it's either been recovered a long time ago or has rotted into nothingness by now

Oro - Yes, I took BB's post in response to my "sitting on the fence" poorly. Fun is fun, and kidding is kidding, but sometimes a line is crossed and this was one of those times. It was in really poor taste, not amusing and is one of those signs of true character in my book. I don't expect any other response from him at this point other than the typical "lolol." I really have nothing further to say about it.

Springfield - I'm fine being on the radar screen - I have absolutely nothing to hide and never will - it's just not in my nature. I don't consider myself to be extraordinary in any facet of my life and I'm certainly not a braggart, but I do take great pride in the fact that I'm probably one of the most down to earth and honest person you could meet.

I do plan to retire by age 49, but it has nothing to do with finding any buried treasures - and also remember that one person's idea of "life of luxury" may be significantly different than another's .

Now everyone go out there and find some buried treasures to post photos of!!!!
