(Transcrito por TurboScribe. Atualize para Ilimitado para remover esta mensagem.) Tonight, on The Curse of Oak Island.

Oh, wow. Check that out. That's a great find. That could be really, really old.

This was used to build a wooden vault or some sort of structure down below for safekeeping.

After researching the Xenomap, I came across three churches on the west coast of France.

These three churches are pointing towards Oak Island.

You've got something big on your hands.

It's absolutely intentional.

It matches Lot 5 in the money pit.

They were trying to conceal it.

Which makes it even more spectacular.

There is an island in the North Atlantic where people have been looking for an incredible treasure for more than 200 years.

So far, they have found a stone slab with strange symbols carved into it.

Man-made workings that date to medieval times.

And a lead cross whose origin may be connected to the Knights Templar.

To date, six men have died trying to solve the mystery.

And according to legend, one more will have to die before the treasure can be found.

You know what time it is?

Treasure time.

A new day on Oak Island begins with great excitement for Rick, Marty and their team

as they are digging to historic depths in the money pit area.

We're right at the bottom of Karma.

We're in the solution channel.

That's where the treasure's going to be.

Look, we've got as good a chance as any to find it today.

And I hope it's going to be right over there.

One day ago, after excavating the 7-foot diameter shaft known as Karma 1,

212 feet deep to the bottom of the solution channel,

the team lifted the steel caissons to allow loose soils and debris to settle overnight into a pile below.

They are now about to retrieve those materials with a dig bucket

and search them for evidence of a large source of silver,

which has been detected through water and soil testing in this area.

It is their hope that the silver is connected to the 14th century Portuguese coin

reportedly retrieved from the money pit by foreman James Pitt Blato in 1849.

Look, let the sluice loose.

Let's go take a look.

All kinds of man-made things are in that solution channel.

We've proven it. We've brought them up.

So I'm very hopeful that we're going to find some evidence of the treasure

that we think fell into that collapsed area.

Nope, no hints.

We can get it all in the truck, get it down to the wash plant, see what's in here.

Okay.

As Rick, Gary, and Terry wait to search more spoils in the money pit area,

some 500 feet to the east near Smith's Cove.

It's pretty muddy.

Yeah, a little bit.

Charles Barkhouse and other members of the team are at the wash plant

searching by hand through spoils that were previously removed from the Karma I shaft

and may contain important evidence or valuables not found by Gary's metal detector.

This process has already produced finds such as a small hand-forged iron chain.

It's a type of chain Gary has previously found while metal detecting in Europe

and he believes could have been used to lock a box or a chest.

Oh, wow. Check that out.

Look what I found.

Looks like a rose head spike to me,

and it's hand-wrought to fasten different pieces of wood together,

and that could be really, really old.

Anytime the team finds something on the conveyor belt at the wash plant,

I mean, we're excited, but finding that rose head spike, you know, in Karma I

could be the indicator that we're looking for.

This could come from the 1600s or earlier.

This could be from the original workings of the depositors of the treasure.

That's a great find.

That's going to go to the lab, for sure, and then the test site.

We'll keep looking.

Meanwhile, back in the Money Pit area.

Right, this is it. Looks like the last material.

Let's go check it out.

Let's give it one more go.

Okay, man.

Rick and the team continue to search through the final spoils

retrieved from the bottom of the Karma I shaft.

I think we've done as far as we can go.

Are you done?

Yeah.

So, got one more chance on the wash plant.

Yep.

The wash plant it is.

Yep.

Hey, guys.

How you doing, Adam?

Are we on bottom?

We're on bottom, and we're cleaned up.

And bottom is?

212.

Missed by an inch, missed by a mile.

Yeah, well, we're not going to miss the next time.

No, no.

We didn't find it.

We just moved on to the next location.

Yep.

Literally, our top pocket location was the one we're about to move to.

Right.

Yep.

Find some treasure, boys!

Two weeks ago, the team began excavating a shaft known as Top Pocket 5.

Located less than 10 feet northeast of Karma I,

this shaft was positioned directly over an area

where water testing had revealed a massive source of silver deep underground,

making it their primary target for exploration of the solution channel.

That doesn't sound very good.

But unfortunately, at a depth of just 25 feet,

the caissons were stopped by gravel backfill from a previous dig.

Now, using Rocky Equipment's powerful rotating oscillator,

the team from SB Canada can resume digging the TPF shaft down to the solution channel.

On the one hand, Karma I is a little disappointing.

But you just keep moving forward.

The quicker we get started, the quicker we get down.

Yep.

All right.

Thank you.

Appreciate it.

Thank you.

While the dig proceeds in the Money Pit area,

later that day...

Hey, guys.

Hey, Nick.

Hi!

Every time I look at this, I don't know what to make of it.

It's getting incredible.

It's really quite spectacular.

Yeah.

Rick and Peter arrive on Lot 8 to check on the investigation

of the cradle-like formation of stones that were found beneath a 40,000-pound boulder.

How in the world was that made?

It's a 40,000-pound boulder.

If you were to drag it in, it would destroy this.

I'm not thinking about how they did it as much as the why.

I mean, this was definitely purposeful.

We didn't remove any soil from down here whatsoever.

It was filled with rocks.

After removing the boulder revealed this mosaic-like stone feature,

archaeologist Fiona Steele has begun removing debris and some of the stones

to determine what purpose it might serve,

especially since the team has already detected possible evidence of a shaft

and even silver in the soils below it.

I've worked with stone most of my life,

and the labor that you see in front of you is...

It was quite laborious.

It meant something to someone.

I think we need to do as much work as possible to address one key question.

What's underneath the boulder?

We had a lot of smaller rocks, the ones that are this size,

all in the center, and they were very loose.

So once I started removing them, I started seeing these other rocks underneath.

And you can see the ones underneath are a fair bit larger in size

than the ones that were actually on top.

And they extend all the way down here.

This is what's starting to produce itself as we've been excavating here.

I will say there's that one there.

When I look at that, the way it's positioned,

it's a very curious positioning of that.

I still can't get it out of my head,

the shape of these boulders that we had, which were very triangular.

We had this big one down here, and we had another big one there,

and a big one there, and it almost felt like there was a triangle

pointing down to this boulder.

I mean, when you think about this area,

you think about Zena's map and the December Triangle.

This could also be related to that.

In 2016, the late author and researcher Zena Halpern

shared documents with a team

believed to have been created by members of the Knights Templar.

One was a 12th century map of Nova Scotia,

and the other was a map of Oak Island,

possibly dating back to 1347.

Astonishingly, it featured several locations written in French,

but when translated to English,

they marked known sites on the island,

such as the Money Pit, the Swamp,

and a site called the December Triangle.

Could the stone cradle and boulder

align with a location on a possible Templar map?

I've puzzled about whether or not this area

could be referencing the so-called December Triangle on Zena's map.

I think we have to have a really proper look

in the area in the vicinity of this stone

and see if there's more information to be revealed

that will help us understand the relationship

between the drawing on Zena's map

and this megalithic stone structure.

I came across this area here of a blue-like clay,

and you can clearly see that there are chunks of charcoal-like material

mixed in with this clay.

I'm just not convinced that this blue-gray clay

is natural to this area.

Clay like this could be very similar

to the clay that we find at the Money Pit.

I'm absolutely mesmerized by this, this blue clay.

I wonder if this is very similar to the clay from the Money Pit.

On Lot 8, after removing some of the stones

from the cradle-like feature that was covered by the massive boulder,

Fiona has made a potentially important discovery.

If you look at the way the stones are,

now I've removed a few,

but it really looks like this clay material

had been used to mortar in

kind of a rounded section in the front of it.

It's absolutely intentional and purposeful,

and they were trying to conceal it.

And we did find some on Lot 5.

Yeah, makes it even more interesting.

Yeah, so if this matches that, then again, more connections.

In 1804, the Onslow Company

carried out the first large-scale excavation of the Money Pit

and encountered wooden platforms every 10 feet

down to the 90-foot level.

During the dig,

they also reportedly found a thick layer of hand-worked blue clay

at the 40-foot level,

which they believed was used as a sealant

to keep water out of the shaft

in order to protect something buried deeper below.

Curiously, in recent years,

the team has discovered hand-worked blue clay in the swamp

and in the round feature on Lot 5.

If Fiona is correct

that she has now found the same kind of blue clay material

in this stone feature on Lot 8,

could it be more evidence

that this feature was created to hide something?

This could be anything.

The reality is there are lead and silver

beyond baseline values within the structure itself,

possibly in association with a shaft or a tunnel.

So we have to be patient at this point.

This has to be driven by the archaeological process.

Is there anything we can do with the clay?

Yeah, we'll get a nice big chunk of that soil

and then take that back to the lab,

and then we can run it through the XRD

and see if it matches the Lot 5 till and the Money Pit till.

That's where it gets fun.

That's where it gets fun.

All right, let's get the sample done.

There, that's a good sample.

I'd like to give you this little bit here.

We'll need to get that to the lab as soon as we can.

There's a why here,

and hopefully we can figure out what that is,

but I'm sure you'll get to the bottom of it.

But let's just keep moving this forward

because we want to understand it, what it may mean.

Okay, we've got a plan.

Thank you. Appreciate it.

The next morning...

Is that the first can?

Yeah.

If we're going to find some top pocket finds,

it's got to be this can.

In the Money Pit area, Rick joins other members of the team

as the TPF shaft is once again being excavated

in a location where the highest trace evidence of silver

has been detected more than 200 feet deep

in the solution channel.

Our first 150 feet is going to be pretty benign,

but from there on, it's everyone on deck

and everyone keep their eyes peeled.

Below 150 feet, everything's open game here.

Because the solution channel

ranges between some 150 to 220 feet deep,

where the team believes the treasure has fallen

after the collapse of the original Money Pit.

It may take several days before the dig reaches its target depth.

Yeah, we're going to backfill out of here down about 150 feet.

We are in the area where there is evidence of the collapse,

the area where we have retrieved significant items.

So I'm hoping, of course, that this top pocket find location

will provide the answer.

We all look forward to getting down to the bottom here.

This is the one.

I sure hope you're right, Eric.

The Plato coins strongly hint that something is down there.

But at the end of the day, we can make this happen, and we will.

We've just got to stay the course.

We're just going to chew through it until we get to the treasure.

You'll see it when we get back. Thank you, guys.

See you, Eric.

Later that day...

Morning, guys.

Hi.

So we have Charlotte Wheatley here in the war room.

In the war room, Rick, Craig, and other members of the team

are meeting with researcher Charlotte Wheatley.

Charlotte, she has some new information,

and I think today should be exceedingly interesting.

So having said that, Charlotte, welcome to the war room.

Thank you very much.

In light of a possible connection between the Lot 8 feature

and Zena Halpern's believed 14th-century Templar map,

Charlotte, who is a colleague of Emiliano, Judy, and Corian Maul,

has been studying the map to look for more clues

that may help verify its authenticity

and how it may help solve the treasure mystery.

I came across this information after researching the Zena map,

which I've done four years' research on.

I examined every name and place recorded on the map,

and one of them I found quite interesting.

I'd never heard it before, was Le Lenceau de Talmont,

which means the Lion Cub of Talmont.

What was interesting for me is how could Talmont connect to the island?

There is a place in France called Talmont-sur-Gironde.

So Talmont-sur-Gironde is on the west coast of France.

It is a small fishing port.

One of the nicest features of Talmont is a beautiful medieval church,

and it's dedicated to a lesser-known female saint called Radigonde.

It's got a very simple interior, typical of Cistercian influence.

It was built in the 11th to 12th century by Benedictine monks.

The Benedictines are a Catholic religious order that was founded in the 6th century

and adhered to what was known as the Rule of Saint Benedict,

a moral code for leading a faithful and productive life.

These writings inspired the formation of an order of monks

known as the Cistercians in 1098.

And one of their most noted leaders was Bernard of Clairvaux,

who co-founded the Knights Templar in 1119.

The church was fortified, so that actually meant that they used it

not only as a church, but also as a fort,

which is not a common thing on churches in France.

How does this connect to Oak Island and why the Union sur le Talmont,

the Lion Cub of Talmont?

Really interestingly, there used to be a very intriguing feature

that resembled a sphinx and was actually known as the Sphinx of Talmont.

And as you can see, it is a sphinx-like shape.

Sadly, it was destroyed in the early 20th century.

So there's nothing left today?

There is nothing left.

And the church itself used to overlook the sphinx,

so it makes sense that this could actually be the Lion Cub of Talmont.

Oh.

So what interested me is that the church itself,

it's actually...

We used to be pointing towards where the sphinx was

at roughly a 292.4-degree angle.

And when you follow the line of the church going through the front door

and continue on a straight line,

and you go across the Atlantic,

you end up on Oak Island.

If that was one coincidence, that's fine.

What gets quite creepy is that about 60km away,

I come across another chapel,

which is located in a place called Courant,

and it is also dedicated to the same saint, Saint Radigance.

The church itself is at an angle of 292.1 degrees,

and when you follow that line from the back of the church

in a perfectly straight direction, you arrive on Oak Island.

Whoa.

And again, this church was built by the same people

who built the other church.

And in between both churches, there is another Radigance church,

and this is actually located in a town of the same name

called Saint Radigance,

and it's orientated at a 292.1-degree angle.

But if you follow the axis of the church

in a perfectly straight direction,

we arrive again on the island.

It's odd for sure.

So we have three churches under the same patronage,

built by the same group of people,

located in a 60-kilometer radius,

all on the west coast of France.

These three churches are pointing towards the island.

It's interesting.

These three churches are pointing towards the island.

So three points dedicated to the same lady,

built by the same group of people.

In the war room, researcher Charlotte Wheatley

is presenting new information

about three potentially Templar-related churches

in the region of Talmont, France,

that she believes are located on an east-to-west line

that leads directly to Oak Island.

It just can't be coincidence.

I have tested this theory on lots of churches in France,

and this doesn't happen.

So I've asked other researchers

to check if the alignment seemed correct,

and they all agree that these three buildings

seem to be perfectly aligned with the island.

We're talking about when was that built?

Same period, we're talking about 13th, 12th, 13th century.

Yeah. Yeah, it's curious.

It is.

The alignment Charlotte mentions, that's incredibly curious.

Were the alignments with the churches purposeful?

There perhaps are alignments that we are currently unaware of

with other features on the island.

Lot 5, Lot 8, the bog, the money pit.

Is there a connection here?

So I decided to take a look

at the actual patron of these churches, St. Radigund.

She was born around the year 520,

and she actually wanted to dedicate her life

to becoming a holy woman.

She made a monastery,

and she turned it into a sort of place of learning,

prayer and pilgrimage.

Born into a royal family in the German land of Thuringia,

Radigund became a devout Christian nun

and emigrated to France,

where she founded the Catholic Abbey of the Holy Cross

in the city of Poitiers in 552 A.D.,

a sacred site which reportedly houses a piece

of the so-called true cross on which Jesus was crucified.

And this is the thing that really got me,

is that when I did research on her,

I noticed that she's known to carry a book,

and she's known to carry a book with a four-dot cross.

I've looked at lots of iconography of saints.

This is the only saint I've found

who's presented with a book with a four-dot cross.

In recent years, the team has visited

numerous former strongholds of the Knights Templar

in France, Italy, Denmark and Portugal.

I think something pretty interesting.

And in each location, they have seen prominent carvings

of crosses surrounded by four dots.

We have a four-dot cross there in the corner.

Oh, wow.

That some experts have interpreted to signify

were the Templar order kids' sacred religious treasures.

Curiously, that same symbol was found by searchers

on the so-called HO stone in 1921 on Oak Island.

Has Charlotte found new clues on Zina Halpern's map

that may help verify a true connection

to ancient Templar-related sites in Europe

and suggest it may be a key to locating

where something of great or sacred value

lies hidden on the island?

The HO stone, it had the cross with the four dots.

I'm just wondering if continued research on that end

can also tie those symbols with those churches.

Yes, and I think maybe that's worth looking into.

If the connection that you're suggesting does exist,

then the map does have a piece of information

that is connected possibly to Oak Island.

That's what, yeah.

So it is possible, and it needs further development.

It would be interesting to have a look on the island.

Maybe there's another HO stone out there.

That's fair, yeah.

But the question is, what happened here?

I don't know, I'm going to say it's the biggest mystery

in the universe, isn't it, really?

I would like to think what happened here,

that this is a sacred place, and it was chosen for a reason,

and I obviously hope there's something buried here,

and I hope you're going to find out.

With your help, we will.

We say thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

As a new morning dawns on Oak Island...

Here we go.

We're moving on down.

Yeah, we've got another load coming up.

...in the Money Pit area, Gary, Terry, and Jack

continue to monitor the dig in the TPF shaft.

We're slowly nearing the zone of interest

in Top Pocket Find 1,

and I'm very hopeful that we're going to find

clear evidence of the collapse of the Money Pit

and find something really valuable

down in the solution channel.

Whoa, what the?

Stop.

It's caving.

Jeez.

There's material popping in.

Because the ground has suddenly begun to give way

around the TPF shaft,

the team from SB Canada and Rock Equipment

will need to move the oscillator

to find out if they can safely continue the excavation.

Wow.

This is not good.

We felt the ground shake,

and you can see that the ground around the oscillator

has given way.

There's been a collapse.

Okay.

Come on.

Holy cow.

It looks like we might have lost ground, did we?

Yeah.

We're losing stuff down below.

Wow.

We're losing stuff down below.

In the Money Pit area,

after reaching a depth of some 105 feet in the TPF shaft,

the surrounding earth has suddenly begun to cave in,

meaning a dangerous collapse could follow.

Going at this depth,

it's a lot of wear and tear on everything.

There's a ton of friction.

There's a ton of stuff in the ground.

Like we've seen settlement on the outside of the casing.

We did see from the table the can was a little bit shaky.

Yep.

It's more of settlement

from all the other work that's been done around it,

and the lighter material goes down.

As we agitate all the way down with the oscillator,

it's dropping all the material through the bigger holes

and slots.

I remember the last time there was a collapse in this area.

It looked insane.

Last year, the collapse went straight down

the side of the casing.

You know, it was running full depth.

Hey.

You got a problem?

We're having cave-in.

One year ago, the earth surrounding the TB1 caisson,

located less than 20 feet to the northwest,

suddenly began to cave in.

And for safety,

the team had to abandon the excavation of the shaft.

Now, SB Canada and ROC equipment

must act quickly to prevent a larger collapse

and allow the team to keep digging

where they have found the most compelling evidence of treasure

in the solution channel.

This is only about 10, 12 feet up at the top,

so it's the perfect time to build it back up.

We're backfilling.

That'll solve that.

Yep.

That'll tighten it up.

You got large diameter solid metal tubes

being driven down into the ground,

and we've got a lot of activity going on

where basically we have some cave-ins.

These types of things, they create a lot of havoc.

There's material moving in and out

and away from the actual caisson itself.

We have to mitigate those.

We have to push material back down into the hole

because it's collapsed down in and around the caisson

as we're pushing it down.

Now we've got this stabilizing everything

from 108 all the way up.

So I see we're going to pack a little bit around it right now,

and then we move on, right?

Yep.

We're getting ready to transition

between the bigger casing to the smaller casing.

Okay, good.

So it's telescoping time now.

Essentially, you know, avoid all the problems

for splitting the hole in two, right?

Right.

Half of the bigger casing takes the top half out,

22 goes in, finished it off.

What's the reason for changing to a smaller caisson?

The material that we're going through,

we're going through hundreds of feet of this stuff,

so it relieves all that tension.

And whatever it takes to get down there.

Whatever it takes to get down there.

Once SB Canada fills in the collapsed areas

around the 8-foot-diameter TPF shaft with gravel backfill,

they will continue the dig down to the solution channel

using smaller 7-foot-diameter steel caissons.

This will safely allow them

to dig below the collapsed region

and reach their target depth.

Anything and everything to assure

that we're going to get all the way down to 220?

That's the goal.

Whatever it takes, right?

Yep, get down there, get deep, find Gary's treasure.

I love it.

See some of those top pocket finds.

When we get caissons down very near the solution channel,

things start to collapse.

I've seen it, I've seen it collapse and collapse again.

And every time, it was when we got close,

when we got close to the bottom.

So that's why I think it's entirely possible

that's where the treasure fell to.

So we absolutely have to get to at least 220 feet

on all of these.

Yeah, it looks like they're almost done,

so why don't we head back to the table?

Sounds good.

See you guys later, guys.

Rock on.

As the dig operation proceeds in the Money Pit area...

Hey, Carmen.

Appreciate you stopping by.

You got something to show me?

We do.

In the Oak Island lab, Alex and members of the team

are meeting with blacksmithing expert Carmen Legge.

They have invited him back to examine the rosehead spike

retrieved from the Karma I spoils two days ago.

Carmen, this spike was found by the wash plant team

in the spoils of the Karma I caisson.

Emma, you have some analysis of this spike.

Compositionally, it's a kind of unique iron.

What's unique about it is that it has an exceptionally high...
