Gentleman and any ladies who might be following this thread. I have read this thread in its entirety three or four times. It appears that there are at least four of us that are following KGC treasure trails. These trails all have two things in common. First they start as KGC treasure and two they all have markers that starts or points to cemeteries. At some point we have to ask ourselves why? Permanence they remain where other landmarks might disappear. One of the first things in a established area is a place to bury and honor the memory of the dead. This has been a time honored tradition since the time of the ancient Egyptians. Even the monuments within the cemetery have symbols. The older the cemetery the more cryptic. In the older cemeteries they used symbols to convey messages without having to have a lot of writing. In the case of our KGC friends the concealed markers within their monuments. Pointers to lead us to hidden objects. We just have to put the pieces of the puzzle together.
I am beginning to think that they used cemeteries to connect points. Most of us have mentioned one basic shape that of a triangle. Of the three basic shapes ( the circle, square, and triangle ) the triangle is the best for pointing and positioning. Even today with your GPS we use triangulation. Most common that is mentioned is the right angle triangle. If my assumption is right a straight line connected two points and a angle of 90 degrees was added at some point along that line would be the last point of the triangle. Right now I will bring up the other things that are important in the building trades they are right angles, horizontals, and perpendiculars. At some time we will have to pay attention to all of these. The people who hid these caches were not only trusted but have to have some sense of the building arts to follow a plan to conceal something of value. Something to think about. It may make some sense out of a situation that may seem to be in chaos.
