The Lagina Brothers Just Found The LONG AWAITED Treasure Of Oak Island!!
The Lagina Brothers Just Found The LONG AWAITED Treasure Of Oak Island!!
The Lagina brothers and their crew have
discovered important artifacts on Oak Island
that have the potential to change history.
These discoveries, found in Lot Five,
a mysterious site, sparked great interest and theories.
Could these artifacts hold the key to uncovering
Oak Island’s famous treasures? Join us as we dive deeper
into the mystery, uncovering the secrets hidden beneath
the island’s surface and shedding light on the
fascinating story of Sir William Phips,
an English naval commander and treasure seeker,
and his intriguing historical connection to Oak Island.
Archaeologists Jamie Kouba and Fiona Steele
were once again drawn to Lot Five on Oak Island,
a site rich in mystery and mythology.
Their continued investigation along the beach,
where a 14th-century lead barter token was unearthed
a year ago, has produced unexpected results.
As Jamie searched through the earth,
her spade struck something firm, revealing
a dazzling object—a button that appeared to be gold-plated.
It was an unusual find, which caught the team’s interest
and fueled theories. Fiona commented on the button’s
distinctiveness as she examined it thoroughly.
She mentioned that such an object had never been
discovered on the island before, hinting at its possible importance.
Jamie wondered whether it belonged to
a high-ranking military commander.
She wondered whether it was part of a wider story about
hiding or protecting something valuable on Oak Island.
As the dig progressed, Jamie’s shovel struck
another hard item, revealing a silver handle.
Its elaborate design and craftsmanship indicated
that it was not a typical object. Fiona, stunned
by the discovery, stated that in all her years
of digging, she had never uncovered a piece of
precious metal, let alone one this large.
This discovery was groundbreaking,
providing a look into the identities of persons
who had lived or visited Oak Island.
Laird Niven, Jack Begley, and Craig Tester
joined the excavation, drawn in by their excitement.
They admired the silver handle, noting its ornamental character
and handmade workmanship. Laird Niven argued that
the existence of such artifacts showed that
the structure they were discovering was not typical
house objects. Jack speculated that whomever had been
on Oak Island had also used soil from deep
within the Money Pit region, adding to the mystery
surrounding the island’s past.
The complex decorations and distinctive properties
of the button and silver handle suggested a narrative
of riches, power, and maybe buried treasures waiting
to be discovered under the island’s surface.
One month earlier, Jamie discovered a cement-like material
in the same region as the strange tunnel beneath the
Garden Shaft, which attracted the team’s interest.
The existence of this material prompted them to believe
about a possible link between the feature on Lot 5
and a place to hide something extremely valuable
deep beneath the Money Pit region.
The team’s excavation efforts were now motivated by the promise
of discovering a key element of Oak Island’s history.
Next day, Rick Lagina, Craig Tester, and Jack Begley
gathered in the Oak Island laboratory with archaeologist
Laird Niven and Emma Culligan to discuss
Emma’s scientific analysis of the gold-plated button
and the recently discovered possible silver artifact
from Lot 5’s large stone foundation.
The discussion was primarily concerned with the composition
of the artifacts. Emma showed that the button was constructed
of a copper alloy with 3% gold on the surface,
a process known as gilding that originated in ancient Egypt.
Gilding is the technique of putting a thin layer of gold
to a surface to create a golden effect. It is commonly utilized
in art, décor, and architecture to create a luxurious appearance.
Emma was drawn to the composition since it included
around 5% phosphorus, which was uncommon for a standard
clothes button. She stated that the composition
was more similar to navy military buttons from the
18th century, suggesting a probable naval link.
After being cleaned and analyzed, the silver artifact
exhibited detailed workmanship and design.
Its presence in the stone foundation heightened the mystery
around the structure’s function and relationship
to Oak Island’s history. The second silver artifact,
following testing, confirms that it is definitely silver,
with a stunning purity of around 90%.
Laird, with his 40 years of knowledge, expresses surprise,
stating that he has never seen a piece of silver like this before.
Emma’s scanned photos of the silver artifact show
detailed work on the sides and edges, suggesting a decorative use,
maybe at the end of a tassel. They admit that further information
is required to properly understand its importance.
Rick thinks that the silver in the button came from the
ship Concepción, claiming that a metallurgical match
between the two might lead to a huge discovery.
This ship was part of the Spanish treasure fleet
that sank off the coast of Ecuador in sixteen forty one.
The team’s findings on Lot 5 have been nothing short of astounding.
They discovered a lot of metal artifacts in the massive stone
structure indicating a connection to Sir William Phips.
Emma’s metallurgical research suggests this connection,
since Sir William Phips, an English naval commander,
reportedly rescued almost 30 tonnes of silver and gold
from the Concepción in sixteen eighty seven.
This revelation adds another degree of curiosity to their results,
suggesting a historical connection that might transform
the team’s view of the past.
Later in the evening, Rick and the team learned
critical information from Scott Clarke, a 32nd degree Freemason,
about Sir William Phips’ connection to Oak Island.
Freemasons belong to a fraternal organization that promotes
moral and personal growth through rituals and symbolism.
According to Clarke, Phips collaborated with Captain
Andrew Belshire, a high-ranking Freemason from Nova Scotia,
during his second recovery attempt of the Nuestra Señora de la Concepción.
Clarke believes that much of the Concepción‘s loot
was hidden on Oak Island, adding another element of mystery
to the team’s discovery.
This discovery inspires discussion among the team members,
notably Rick Lagina, who wonders if the silver artifact
they discovered may provide more proof to support Clarke’s claim.
Lagina explores the likelihood that the artifact’s origins
are tied to the riches recovered by Phips and stored on Oak Island.
This notion gains weight when they detect a man-made
concrete-like substance in both the features on Lot 5
and the tunnel below the Garden Shaft, showing a connection
between the two places.
Rick considers the relevance of these observations,
stating that the Lot 5 features cannot be dismissed.
This discovery strengthens their idea that they
may be onto something big, maybe solving
the mystery of Oak Island’s famous wealth!
Next day, Rick Lagina, his nephew Alex Lagina,
and the Oak Island crew, which included Gary Drayton,
archaeologist Laird Niven, and researcher Emma Culligan,
arrived at the Oak Island Interpretive Centre with much expectation.
Just a week previously, the crew discovered an English penny
or a coin and a possible 300-year-old Phoenician bead
in a massive stone structure along the coastline on Lot 5.
A Phoenician bead is a form of ancient bead created
by the Phoenician culture, which lived in the Mediterranean region
from around fifteen hundred BCE to three hundred BCE.
These beads were commonly made of glass and were highly valued
for their brilliant colors and exquisite patterns.
The crew was particularly fascinated by the coin,
which Emma had scanned earlier that day with the
SkyScan twelve seventy three CT scanner.
This innovative technique enabled them to display the
coin’s finer details while causing no harm.
The coin looked to be an English penny or half-penny,
potentially from nearly three decades before
the Money Pit was discovered in seventeen ninety five.
This prompted fascinating concerns regarding
who left it in Lot 5’s foundation.
Was it someone who had left anything valuable,
or was it someone looking for the legendary treasure?
The crew decided to keep excavating in the hopes
of finding further clues. As they dug further,
they discovered bits of china that Gary identified
as Chinese porcelain. This result was noteworthy
because it showed a possible link to the Portuguese ships
that used these trading routes. Could this be
old Chinese ceramics transported to the island
through these trading routes? If that’s the case,
Gary Drayton’s idea regarding another Portuguese link
to the stone route in the Oak Island marsh
became more likely.
The early 16th century saw an increase in travel and commerce
for Portuguese explorers, notably Vasco da Gama,
a member of the Portuguese Knights Templar cult.
These explorers went on lengthy commercial voyages
to China, bringing back a range of items, including
excellent Chinese porcelain. This porcelain became highly sought for
and was widely trafficked across the area and the Americas,
contributing to a greater cultural interchange between
the East and the West.
Rick Lagina and his colleagues were aware of this historical backdrop
as they attempted to establish a link between the artifacts
discovered on Oak Island and the physical structures located there.
Rick felt that the Chinese ceramics they had uncovered
may provide light on one of the island’s most enigmatic features—the stone path.
This stone path, whose purpose and origin remained unknown,
had long been the subject of the team’s inquiry.
