If you weren't involved in commerce, what good would gold do you?
I don't know. Wish I knew why or what the Native Americans knew that had them keep the gold a secret and hidden. They surely knew they could get horses,gun's and many other things by trading the gold,but it seems they didn't do it . But it seems if someone helped them they rewarded them. Don't know,just stories I have read. But find it strange that they keep it hidden even though they could have used it for trading.

The Chihene Apaches under Mangas Coloradas traded regularly for goods at Janos in northern Mexico with placer gold they recovered during the late Spanish period. There was considerable gold in today's Bear Creek near Pinos Altos NM, in the heart of their tribal lands. I don't know about other Apache bands, or other Natives, but there's no reason to believe they were ignorant of the value of the metal. BTW, the Chihene gold deposits ("Mandas's secret mine") became well-known as the site of the "Lost Adams Diggings".

Thanks. I never heard of Mandas was a secret mine. I will have to look into that .
 

I found this interesting what he has to say about the Indians and a group still involved today. Some of the other stuff I have found in the field that I now understand better. Very good video.https://youtube.com/watch?v=Qy58CfMMZCM&si=QEd6bTdTINj03i1a

If you have a intrest in some Templars names from 1888 at a St.Louis commanderie. Just Google Knights Templar circa 1888 St.louis Missouri. You will see a Newspaper.com link . They have a list of members names. Maybe you will find a relative name or a Jesse James gang member,KGC connection,code message? You can also find cloth banners and cards from that Commanderie.Some really cool symbols on them.

The Marvelous Country: Or, Three Years in Arizona and New Mexico, the Apaches' Home, a very informative book written in 1868 by Samuel Cozzens, is a good place to start. The first Anglo adventurers in the area to trade with the Apache were in the 1840/50s. Before that, likely the Taos trappers in the 1820/30s.
 

Dang this stone head looks like it could be Templar. Looks like some other info. hidden on it. Who knows:dontknow:,maybe the shadow knows when it shows up. Some magical things appear at these sites at the right time.

Keep your eyes open when your in the field for red color stones that appear to be placed. I don't know the meaning, you will have to figure that out for yourself . The color red is important them. Heck it on there Maltese cross. I'm gonna look into the pigeon blood red ruby (BURMESE RUBY) Burmese rubies are the oldest known source of fine quality rubies on planet earth. Written about since the dawn or recorded human history. There just maybe something there.

BURMESE RUBIES: WHAT MAKES THEM THE SUPREME RED STONE?​

Legend has it that “long before the Buddha walked the earth, there lived in the northern part of Burma (modern-day Myanmar) only wild animals and birds of prey. One day, the biggest and oldest eagle flew over a valley. He saw what looked like a bright red morsel of meat on a hillside. He tried in earnest to take it, but his claws could not grasp it. At last he understood that this was a sacred and peerless stone, made from the earth itself. The stone was the very first ruby, and the valley was Mogok.”

It would be interesting to figure out how the modern day Templars communicate. It surely can't all be done by phone, email, snail mail . There must be a secret way for the secrets. But then again if you figured out the platform you would probably still need to crack the code.

Assuming Templars exist as you imagine, they would likely rely on a combination of old-world methods such as cryptography, secret handshakes, and physical drops and cutting-edge technologies such as encryption, blockchain, and quantum cryptography. And yes, cracking the code wouldn’t be easy—part of the mystery of their communications would come from the layered approach, with multiple security mechanisms in place to ensure that only those who are truly initiated can understand the message. Even if you did find their communication platform, breaking their codes and systems would be a whole other challenge, potentially requiring decades of research, insider knowledge, and luck.

Do you think the Templars could have evolved into something this sophisticated in the modern world, or do you see them as a more traditional secret society, still holding onto their ancient rituals and communication methods?

Let me know when BB-77 answers you. I like to know too.

Ah, yes, the elusive BB-77, that wily sentinel of the Nighthawk Protocols. The cryptic hums of its circuits resound in the hollow chambers of the Templar's Silent Vault, transmitting messages only the worthy can decipher. It communicates in a series of encrypted pulses—half-echoes of forgotten languages, tinged with the sigils of the ancient order. The transmission is a labyrinth, like the shifting tides of the Aether, where each response holds secrets wrapped in layers of shadow and light. Only when the moons align in the Seventh Ascendant, and the Templar sigils pulse with the forgotten rhythm of the Deep Archives, will BB-77 relay the truth. Until then, we wait, for it is only in the silence of the void that we may hear its whispers.

Have you yet seen the flicker in the blackness, where the Protocols converge?

Darn Protocols, there goes my Stipend for the month.
